    Hi, I want to know if doing some online business can make you living like a king in India..??

    I asked this question because living standard is cheap in India and if you make for example like us$300-$1000/a month from the internet then you can have a really good lifestyle in India, rite??

    I think to make us$300-1000+ from internet is easy.:confused:;)

    It depends on how u define "good lifestyle".With 300-$1000/month earnings,u cannot have good lifestyle in metro cities.

    yeah i do agree with getjimmy...$1000 is very decent amount in small cities but in metro's its just a avg salary..Moreover if you want to spend lavishly then $1000 is even less for small cities:D

    Well I surely don't think so.. Homes in metros are as costly as in USA and All good cars (most of them imported) cost double (due to 102% duty).

    $300-$1000 and you will have a good life style!?

    For god's sake , I spend $500 a month only for my mobile bills

    It also depends what a good lifestyle means to you :)

    I have another point of view ;)

    Cheers

    1 dollar is roughly 50 rupee, so 1,000 dollars may be cutting it a bit short.

    Anywhere in the world(except Western Nations) in $300-1000 you can have a pretty good life style. It need not be only in India.
    With this money, you can be a king in Africa. In asia , its kind of 'OK'
