Ah, fellowship money... Basic pay cheppali ante, they'll tell you "HRA, contingency, medical." Sounds solid on paper. But listen, that "contingency grant"? Mostly for journals and conference travel—which, if you're in a village with no travel grants like I was, just sits there. My reality? That monthly amount couldn't cover the taxi to the nearest city for my grandmother's dialysis, forget research. So I left. The fan in the coconut shed is more reliable.
