Indian moved to Europe warns think twice before leaving India to go abroad for higher salary, says loneliness and missing time with loved ones may not be worth the better pay

An Indian living in Europe has warned people against assuming that a higher salary abroad automatically means a better life. In an Instagram video, he said Indians earning around ₹70,000 to ₹1 lakh a month in India should think carefully before leaving the country for a better-paying job overseas.

According to the Instagram post by @rao_in_malta, the decision depends on what a person values more, with the creator highlighting loneliness, family separation, living costs and savings alongside the higher salaries that people may earn abroad.
