How much does someone need to live a decent middle/upper-class lifestyle in Europe? For example Ireland, UK, Spain or Portugal?
I'm intrigued by this idea, but how much I'd enough, or at least enough that I could work lightly and be in great shape?
- renewiltord 3y ago4 million GBP will keep you very comfortable in a smaller English town like Leicester.
- rsanek 3y agonot sure that's too different from the US at an equivalent amount
- freitzkriesler2 3y agoWhat do you define as as decent? Do you want to own a car and own property? Uk, you're looking at 50-60k GBP in a 2nd or 3rd tier city. London you'll want a bankers salary plus if you want to live in zone 1/2. EU same applies. Around 50-60k EUR. The worst part about Europe and the UK are the lack of 30 year mortgages. Tier 1 cities you'll need way more.
- moltar 3y agoPortugal has 40 year mortgages ;)
- freitzkriesler2 3y agoThank GOD
- moltar 3y agoIn Portugal, as a single person you could have decent living on 1K EUR/mo. Not in a major city though. For a good life you probably need about 2K. If you want to travel and eat out often then make it 3.
