Living in Bengaluru has always been a costly affair, but when a man who claims to earn ₹1.8 crore annually describes the city as “utterly unlivable,” it certainly raises eyebrows. This statement has sparked conversations about the growing financial strain even for those with substantial incomes.

Despite a high earning capacity, the man’s comment highlights the challenges that residents face due to the skyrocketing cost of living in the city. From soaring rent prices to expensive everyday expenses, many are feeling the pressure, and even top earners are finding it difficult to maintain their lifestyle in the rapidly growing urban environment.

This observation sheds light on the broader issue of affordability in Bengaluru, which has become a major concern for both locals and newcomers, regardless of their financial status.
