My salary is around 10k too and I'm happy with it as I live in India. One of the cheapest city in country I live in. As my country still developing there exits problems with Sakarya structure and prices of valuable goods. The ratio is always fluctuating and sometimes it expensive for me and sometimes it is easy.
Which city in India you live in? As even I am from India and to be honest 10k salary is nothing for me as I am earning 30k per month but still its not enough for me as at the end of the month I am always short of money but now thanks to bitcoins that its giving me some extra money to take care of my expenses.
