I’ve only been to New Delhi, Agra, and Goa. I would’ve brought a nice watch if it was only resorts and hotels but wouldn’t brave it on the streets

commented on How much of your salary do you put into your watch hobby? ·

I spend far less than 5%, and it’s my opinion that most people can spend 20-30% of their net income on discretionary spending, after dealing with their fixed costs, savings, and investments. If a person likes to eat out, shop, and travel often, they’ll have less money to go towards watches. But if watches are the only thing a person does to treat themselves, then there’s nothing wrong with spending 30%.

Some exceptions are the uber-rich, people with extremely high living costs, and aggressive savers/investors.
