R Madhavan recently shared insights about his family’s financial situation during his childhood. He grew up in a double-income household with both parents working. While they enjoyed the benefits, Madhavan recalled how his father would often set limits on expenses he didn’t approve of.
On his YouTube channel ‘For a Change’, Madhavan remembered growing up in a double-income household in the 1970s, with his mother working at the Bank of India and his father employed at Tata Steel, both earning nearly equal salaries.
Madhavan shared that while there weren’t strict rules about who paid for what in the household, there were occasional disagreements. He recalled that his father viewed the second income as a “bonus.” Madhavan explained that, although their double-income household allowed for better holidays and more frequent flights, his father made it clear that he couldn’t afford certain expenses. He wanted to live as though he was the sole earner, treating the second income as an extra, rather than a necessity.
Madhavan defended his parents’ perspectives, explaining that he understood his father’s viewpoint. He also acknowledged his mother’s likely thoughts, wondering why they weren’t enjoying their earnings when they could afford it, and asking when they would start living more freely.
