Information technology professionals in India now have an unprecedented advantage due to the arrival of the technology era. In addition to making life easier, the digital era has provided Indian youth the opportunity to pursue lucrative careers with high pay. For many, buying a home has become a symbol of success and a major life goal. However, the true cost of homeownership often extends beyond the initial purchase price.
Recently, a post by an Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) alumnus thanking his tech career for helping him buy his dream home went viral, sparking mixed reactions online.
The post, shared on 'X' by Animesh Chouhan, an IIT Kharagpur graduate, expressed gratitude to Python, the popular programming language, for playing a pivotal role in his success. He credited his career as a software engineer at a financial company for making his dream home a reality, simply writing, "Thank you, Python."
