I earn a lot more at my job than a typical American teacher, but prices in Norway are much, much higher for a lot of things, like food.

If I have to work 10 minutes to earn enough money to buy something in Norway, and an American has to work 20 minutes to afford that same something in the US, mine is cheaper, even if it objectively costs three times as much in Norway than in the US.

I imagine that in India, with its rampant poverty, $900 is a lot closer to $84,000 than anyone might think, even if it isn't exactly the same amount.
