Nobody Told You This About Money | #09 🇮🇳 India vs 🇺🇸 USA

Why are Indians moving to the US when it’s so much more expensive?

The answer is earning power.
📌 GDP per person
🇮🇳 ₹2.3L
🇺🇸 ₹72.5L
~31× higher in the US

📌 Cost of living
🇮🇳 Lower housing, food & service costs
🇺🇸 Higher housing, childcare & service costs

📌 Healthcare
🇺🇸 Much higher healthcare spending
🇮🇳 Much lower healthcare costs, but higher out-of-pocket burden

📌 Sanitation
🇮🇳 63%
🇺🇸 97%

So, is the US “better”? Not necessarily.

India = lower costs
USA = higher earning potential

Migration is often less about living cheaply and more about earning more.
