Calm down. Yes, some things are shit in Portugal. €0.2246 per kWh is not cheap but it is not crazy high. "Renewables account for 72% of Portugal's consumption in 5-mo 2021" May be important for the future I know real estate prices in Portugal are crazy. 500k in a city and you get a golden visa. Hence every decent apartment is 500k or more. In a country were the minimum salary is around 500 euros. Look the the future. Portugal can and is attracting an nearly infinite supply of young people from Brazil, Angola, Mozambique. The future is good. Likely better than Italy.

Property prices aren't so crazy - a friend of mine pays €400 a month in a nice part of Costa da Caparica for a 2 bed, another bought a great place for under €200k in Cacilhas. For under €500k you can get something like this https://www.idealista.pt/imovel/31578168/ https://www.idealista.pt/imovel/31578168/ more than decent in such a desirable location in the centre of the capital.. The minimum wage is so low because more than 50% of the workforce didn't finish school https://www.theportugalnews.com/news/50-of-portuguese-between-25-and-64-did-not-complete-secondary-school/53517 https://www.theportugalnews.com/news/50-of-portuguese-betwee... There are plenty of Portuguese people smarter than I commanding nice salaries, yes not as high as elsewhere in Europe but the quality of life and cost of living I believe make up for it.
