Chartered accountant Nitin Kaushik warns that spending Rs 20,000 monthly on luxury lifestyle choices could cost you Rs 1.9 crore over 20 years through lost compounding returns at 12% annual growth.

Real wealth creates freedom to make choices without financial pressure, something no branded outfit or luxury dinner can provide.
