Sure, please. I'd love to see what are those extra benefits worth $40k yearly. (free healthcare doesn't count as the US amount usually includes insurance)

- geezerjay 9y ago> I'd love to see what are those extra benefits worth $40k yearly. How about 35hour work weeks and the fact that overtime is paid? If you factor that into account and add to the healthcare and extra vacation days I'm pretty sure those fictional $40k/yearly fade out rather quickly. And by the way, average income means jack shit when the income distribution is so lopsided, particularly when discussing issuez linked to poverty and the lack of basic services.
- wolco 9y agofree university, public transit, health care, old age payments, pensions. But the tax rates are higher so 55k is really 32k. You are better off working part time in the US.
- walshemj 9y agoyour also forgetting the 13th month and the generous tax dodges you can use in Germany or in the UK the use of ISA's and generous tax breaks on pensions your 401k doesn't get relif at your highest rate does it?
