How did social media react?
The post prompted varied responses among social media users. While some were impressed and wanted to know more about their investment blueprint, others took the humorous route in their responses. Some, however, argued that the strategy is applicable only to a certain group.
An individual joked, “Thoda mujhe bhi de do investment ke liye.” Another asked, “Which are the exact funds you are investing in?”
A third posted, “Your inputs are not relevant for those who don't have hefty salaries.” A fourth wrote, “What do you do, guys?”
This is not the first time the couple has captured social media’s attention with their videos. Earlier, they made headlines with a detailed breakdown of their ₹6.85 lakh budget for a 15-day trip to Europe.
The couple revealed that their 15-day summer getaway for a family of three across Amsterdam, Belgium, and Italy came to ₹6.85 lakh. While they meticulously mapped out standard costs such as flights, local transit, and sightseeing, their food bill was what truly turned heads. Social media users were left stunned to see that dining across Europe cost the family a whopping ₹1.85 lakh.
