A Meta employee has sparked discussion online after revealing that despite earning an salary of around Rs 3.2 crore annually at just 24 years old, he feels no motivation to continue working. The employee shared his experience anonymously on Blind, a professional networking platform known for candid workplace discussions.
Struggling With Motivation Despite Success
The anonymous user admitted that while he acknowledges his financial success at a young age, the lack of fulfillment has left him drained.
“I’m 24 with 700k nw. I am really blessed to have this at a young age,” the user said in a post on Blind.
The employee went on to explain that, despite the handsome salary, his responsibilities toward his family prevent him from quitting.
“At the same time, I can’t stand work at all. Everyday I have no motivation to continue on at work and just want to quit. However, I’m tied to making money for my family,” the Meta employee said on Blind.
Fighting to Reach Financial Freedom
According to the post, the employee’s current total compensation stands at $370,000, approximately ₹3.2 crore in Indian currency. He revealed that his goal is to save aggressively until his net worth reaches $3 million.
“I don’t know how much longer I have in me. Feel like I’m fighting to save every dollar right now and watch my nw slowly climb,” the user said.
The post concluded with the 24-year-old asking others if life gets easier after hitting the $1 million milestone.
“Does it get much easier after 1M? Is the end in sight? My goal is 3M,” he wrote.
The post quickly drew attention, with many users offering emotional and practical advice.

One user commented, “Stop tracking numbers on a screen. Today is the youngest and healthiest you’ll ever be. Make every day count.”
Another user added, “Health is more important than net worth.”
