Where the hell in the EU do you live that medical insurance cost 700 Euros a month??
I haven't payed medical insurance since starting to work (as the employers pay them here), but when I did the cost (for plain vanilla public medical insurance, which in Austria covers pretty much everything in my experience) was a bit over 20 Euros a month.
- Tichy 17y agoGermany. Insurance is a percentage of your income, up to a maximum (something around 700 to 800EUR). That's if you are on "public insurance". At the moment I can't switch to private insurance, also not sure if it would be a good idea in the long run. I suspect a lot of Germans are not consciously aware of how much health insurance costs, because the employer pays half of it. So they would think they only pay 300€ for health insurance, when in reality they pay 600€.
