Influencer reveals her 2024 expenditures

In the video, Sharanya revealed she spent around Rs 5 lakhs in total on flights in 2024. She spent Rs 3 lakh on a trip to Greenland, Rs 2.5 lakh on three trips to Iceland, Rs 1 lakh on her visit to Thailand and Laos (combined), Rs 1.5 lakh on a Madeira trip, and Rs 8 lakh on a trip to South Africa with her parents. She also spent around Rs 60000 on her "European Summer." She said that she won Rs 40000 at the casino during this trip, which brought down the expenses.

Iyer further revealed that she bought a car worth Rs 22 lakh and spent Rs 5 lakh on medical expenses that were not covered by insurance. She also clarified that the mentioned expenditures don't include her expenditure on "F&B, daily expenses and material accumulations." The influencer wrote, "I used to be such an obsessive Saver and spend sparingly on the ‘big' things. 2024 changed that with help and advice and healthy pushes from my dad and friends.

Not everyone needs to agree, but this has been my significant move last year, and it brought me so much JOY and a sense of safety in an otherwise difficult year 🫶

Here's to more of this in 2025!

PS: I'm of course not including spends on F&B, daily expenses, material accumulations (big plans to cut that down this year too!)"

Sharanya also revealed her mantra of living life to all her followers, "Earn > Save > SPEND > Repeat."
