The TRUTH About 1 Crore ($100k) Salary in USA

Is a 1 Crore ($100,000) salary in the US really the same as earning 30 Lakhs in India? I break down my exact monthly expenses in Chicago to show you the reality of living, spending, and saving in America. Book a paid 1:1 study-abroad consultation with me: https://topmate.io/anushkinusa/1302247 In this video, I discuss: • The myth about US salaries and their Indian equivalents • My real monthly expense breakdown in Chicago (including rent, a Tesla, and going out) • How much you can actually save purely on a $100,000 paycheck • The harsh trade-offs of US life: safety concerns, healthcare risks, and a lack of house help • Why moving to the US might be a risk worth taking in your 20s • The importance of targeting top universities and securing scholarships This is my personal experience and perspective. I also acknowledge the survivorship bias behind my own outcome; living expenses, savings, and job markets vary greatly depending on the city, immigration policies, and your lifestyle. Always do your own research. What is your biggest concern about moving to the USA—the living expenses, the cultural shifts, or the job market? Tell me in the comments.
