But have you ever wondered that if an Indian works in Libya for 20 years, what will be his total earning in Indian currency? Let us understand it in simple language.

First of all let’s talk about the currency of Libya. The currency there is called Libyan Dinar. Currently 1 Libyan Dinar is equal to approximately 16.30 Indian Rupees. That means if you earn one dinar in Libya, its value in India is equal to 16 and a half rupees.

Now let’s talk about the average salary in Libya. The working class there gets an average monthly salary of 800 to 1,000 dinars. At the same time, the salary of doctors, engineers or office professionals can range from 2,000 to 4,000 dinars.

But if we assume an average salary of 1,000 dinars per month, it means that the person is earning approximately Rs 16,300 in Indian currency every month.

Now let’s calculate for 20 years. There are 12 months in a year, which means the total annual income is 12,000 dinars. If it is converted into rupees, the value of 12,000 dinars will be approximately Rs 1,95,600. Now if a person works continuously for 20 years, then the total earning will be 1,95,600 multiplied by 20 i.e. approximately Rs 39 lakh.

This is a calculation done only on the basis of salary, whereas the actual earning may be more than this. The reason for this is that many companies in Libya provide free accommodation and food to their employees. In such a situation, expenses are greatly reduced and the entire salary can be saved.
