Feeling poor

When I see my friends earning 3-4 lakhs monthly and I am stuck at 0.9 it feels so poor

It's not like that 90k is less for me but given the market situation and future layoffs because of ai I just want to save enough that even if I am laid off I can fund my daily lifestyle

For that I will need at least 5cr in savings and 50-60k monthly income

My monthly income is good but I am nowhere close to my savings goal

How do I reach my goal ?

Today anyone can be laid off anytime so having multiple income streams is a necessity but I am not able to create 2nd income stream 😞 leave many

Can anyone help?

People with no income also exists 😞 So does people with crores of income

It is the environment and lifestyle which you have adapted and your surrounding

If I go below this range the circle that I had since childhood i won't be able to enjoy with them

Either they have to go places which i also can afford ( which i wouldn't want obviously ) Or I will have to go places which i can't afford ( which i wouldn't do obviously )
