Story: Arjun’s ₹20,000 Festival Bonus Plan
Arjun got a ₹20,000 festival bonus, and this time he decided where it would go before spending a rupee.
What this looks like in real life
Arjun (an illustrative example) got a ₹20,000 festival bonus. His first thought was a shiny new phone. Then he remembered last year’s bonus: gone in two weeks, with nothing to show for it.
So this time he split it before spending a rupee: ₹10,000 into savings, ₹6,000 for family, and ₹4,000 just for fun. He still enjoyed the festival, and his emergency fund grew without any stress.
The lesson: decide where a bonus goes before it reaches your wallet.
