45-50k is not enough to make a good living in Berlin, when your rent and utilities (everything included) is around 1k to 1,250 EUR, which leaves you around 1k EUR to live by.
- dgellow 7y agoIs that a joke? With €45k+ in Berlin you have a pretty decent way of living, that’s higher than any median or average. And you can have good rent if you don’t live in trendy areas where prices are inflated.
- durnygbur 7y ago> With €45k+ in Berlin you have a pretty decent way of living Then cancel you rental contract, rent something new again and now... if not homeless (or stuck with airbnb)... re-estimate what the decent salary would be.
- dgellow 7y agoI’m in the process of moving right now (literally in a week), I’m quite aware of rent prices. Maybe we have a different definition of “decent” in this context.
- lnsru 7y agoSo what when that’s higher than any median and average? It’a enough money to survive in today’s Berlin, but it’s far far away from anything decent! Started almost decade ago with these €45k in Lindau, 800€ rent, 400€ unavoidable expenses. Add some savings and an upkeep costs of a 7 years old car and it’s gone.
