#C27615 I need suggestions regarding my mid life crisis: Hello, I am 37 year guy from north india earning 20 lpa (excluding other company benefits). But over time if I stay in my job could rise to upto 60lpa but will take time which is sufficient to have upper middle class life in my city. Plus my company has given me SUV, fuel and maintenance expense, subsidy for house loan. Job is permanent nature with rare cases of termination in history. Present status. I hv home with loan of 1 Cr. However I have equivalent savings as well, slightly more may be additional 30 lakh. My house current valuation is around 3 cr. Moreover, I hv family asset worth 7-8cr approx. as I am only son I will inherit it. Since company gives subsidy in loan, I hv not repaid it. House rental income now is 40k. This is enough to support my children's present school fees in reasonable standard school in my city. My present job will give me a set life where I can have reasonably good life. but cons is transfers could be out of my home city frequently. However, I personally don't crave much for materialistic life. Now I am in mid life crisis phase where I crave to have positive impact through intellectual engagement but job seems now like a regular engagement. It's Pvt job but I don't feel pressurized. I am thinking of doing PhD abroad if I get full scholarship with stipend. That will probably take me to area of my interest but that's a risk as well. Other option is doing PhD in my city but it will have lesser value as university not recognized internationally and may not give me freedom to focus on study as I will be continuing my job. Any person who had similar confusions and could suggest me a wise decision I would love to hear. If you hd similar situation in life and have overcome this with excellence, pls share your insight. Or if you may have seen some relative or friend doing the same and sailed successfully this transition phase. I want genuine advices so I could take best decision. Anyone who has done PhD, in research or academia after few years of corporate life in lesser pay pls suggest. Thank you

This situation is called "mid life crisis" ? 37 year old Man with 8 crore family assets. 3 crore house. 1 crore savings. 40k rental income. Free SUV and a stable job till 60. Ye post sabko jalane k liye dali hai na.
First clear your loans then talk
If u think, u have midlife crisis. Then statistically, more than 90% Indians should be in mid-life disaster (more than crisis) in their life regardless of their age 😀🤷♂️
By inflating figs, hv come across many posts, Tum logon ko gf aise toh milti nahin shayad, toh yeh accha azmane ki jagah hei Mid life crisis bina gf kei kaise ho sakti hei, bilkul jhuth. Bhagwan ne banaya hei kisi gender ko, uske bina tumhe crisis bhi dikhayega kaun?! 😁
I overcome mid-life criss like yours by flipping reels 24*7—hanging upside down in the bed. I have no scope for worries or regrets. You too should be decisive like me.

Life is short and u should spend it on things u like ..Part time PhD is good option where u can do it without quitting ur job ..and PhD exhaust u ..u cns always come back to your job
Inko pehle koi crisis ka matlab samjhao😆
If u think of death more often u wudnt have a mid life crises….
Mat choro job, millions of people are jobless, crying for jobs.u hv stable job,stable income. Try to make more passive income sources. That's my opinion.
