Four days later, on August 20, he shared a tour of his new home.
There’s also a shared kitchen with all the necessary utensils, a dining area and a living space to relax. It has almost everything I need for a comfortable lifestyle. There’s even a backyard garden, so I just need to make sure a coconut doesn’t fall on my head. The best part is that the beach is only a two-to-three-minute walk away. My mornings and evenings are now filled with waves and sunsets. What Is His Monthly Budget?
Since it is the off-season, he managed to rent one for Rs 4,500 a month. As he shares it with a housemate, his share comes to Rs 2,250 per month. Petrol costs him about Rs 300 a week, or around Rs 1,200 monthly.
In the video, he said, “I’m living in a 3BHK villa, where I have my own room with Wi-Fi, a decent work desk and an attached bathroom. A scooter is essential for getting around Goa, according to Ajay.
