Doesn't it also make a difference that you lose welfare benefits when you start working? Maybe you could just work part time if all earned income was supplemental with no welfare gap.
- BoumTAC 5y agocurrently I'm on welfare. (enough to not have to use money put aside) If I work (even part time, I will loose all welfare). If I find a job I will earn only 400-800E more than I earn with welfare.
- Siecje 5y agoE is Euro? 400-800 Euro is a significant amount of money.
- BoumTAC 5y agoYes, 800 euro would be the max I could hope for I think. But as an average of ~500 euros improvement of my current "salary" and loosing at the same time 40h/week + getting tired and not being able to do intense intellectual things after work I don't know if it's really worth it. And as I said, I "earn" enough money to not have to use my saving.
