Earlier, another post from Bengaluru went viral. A 30-year-old tech professional from Bengaluru has sparked an online debate after seeking advice on whether to invest ₹2.7 crore in a 3BHK apartment in JP Nagar, South Bengaluru, which is largely funded through a ₹1.8 crore home loan. His Reddit post on r/indianrealestate quickly went viral, drawing hundreds of responses and highlighting the dilemmas many young professionals face while balancing lifestyle aspirations with financial caution.

The techie, who has lived in South Bengaluru for nearly a decade, explained that both he and his wife earn a combined ₹5.1 lakh per month. Their household expenses average ₹60,000–70,000, and they maintain a ₹20 lakh emergency fund, another ₹20 lakh buffer, and passive rental income of ₹18,000 per month from a 2BHK in their hometown. With no children planned for the next few years, the couple is prepared to put down ₹90 lakh as a down payment and fees without touching their mutual funds or stock portfolio.
