An auto driver’s breakdown of his ₹ 75,000 monthly income has touched hearts online while raising questions about education costs. Determined to give his daughter a better life, the father allocates ₹ 1.4 lakh annually to her schooling. With no savings left and occasional debts to clear, social media users expressed admiration for his sacrifices while offering advice on long-term financial planning.

The host then asks how many children the man has, and he explains that he has a daughter. He then adds, “I am not educated. I have put her in a good school.

The auto driver then reveals that he spends ₹ 1.4 lakh yearly for her education.

A third expressed, “My father earned good money and I went to a school which was semi-government at 10 k fees per year. An individual posted, “I think he can downshift the school expenses and invest 5-10k for his daughter so that he will not have to take out a loan for her college. The post prompted a series of responses on social media. Another commented, “11k+ per month school fee. Idk why people are obsessed with outrageously high fees at schools, they aren’t worth it.”
