I mostly agree.
Let’s also consider cost of living here vs the US, and average pay.
For example, I live in north Italy and i currently earn 60k euro yearly, which is 2.5x the average italian paycheck of 27k.
I also have a 10% bonus, which is something most companies outside of IT simply do not offer in Italy.
I think doctors average pay is around 60-70k for comparison with highly paying jobs…
- dzhiurgis 5y agoCost of living doesn't account for quality of living. Most of Europe live in small flats - a large detached house equals millionaire (heck everyone with property nowadays is a millionaire) level wealth.
- Curzel 5y agoAgree. But again, depends on the area. An attic in Trento city center, in an historical building, completely renewed very recently? 400k That gets you a very small flat in Milan, and not even near city center. Same price gets you a big-ass detached house where I live (30 minutes drive from nearest city) As for quality of living I don’t have much experience, I’ve been living for a while in Ireland and UK, but only few weeks at a time, so I don’t really have anything to contribute to that discussion tbh
