Yes this is absolutely the case also in Europe. In Berlin or Munich you're not going to rent anything as a single person. In Warsaw or Prague you'll not afford to rent anything on one local income (assuming you even have a job there currently).
- summeroflove20 2y agoYou sure about this? Not every single person works in service, hospitality or blue-collar jobs.
- lifestyleguru 2y ago> Not every single person works in service, hospitality or blue-collar jobs. What do mean, that other single professionals will better succeed renting in Berlin or Munich, or afford renting in Warsaw or Prague? My experience is that even less so.
- Symbiote 2y agoIt's not too difficult to rent a room in a shared house/apartment as a single person in these cities, regardless of age.
- lifestyleguru 2y agoHow long into your life do you accept to share rooms and apartments? > It's not too difficult to rent a room in a shared house/apartment as a single person In Berlin or Munich absolutely not, even shared accommodation have some absurd castings. Some people really smell their advantage and squeeze every drop of humiliation they can.
- watwut 2y agoHistorically shared living was standard. You had multigenerational households and such too. It was not seen as humiliating, but as normal. It has its issues and is definitely not ideal, but whether you accept these has less to do with age and more to do with culture and economics.
- lifestyleguru 2y agoHow do you start sharing multigenerational household when you're a foreigner hundreds kilometers away from any family? Culture and economics might mutually agree that you are obsolete and should eliminate yourself, would you comply?
- Symbiote 2y agoIndefinitely, if you can't afford to live alone. It's obviously not something you'd want to do, but it's much better than being homeless. I've shared a house with people in their 40s (or more) when I was in my 20s in London. I'm sure they would have preferred their own place, but it was much, much cheaper for them to share.
- lifestyleguru 2y agoIf someone in their 40s ends up or insist on living in shared accommodation in London, it's probably a hidden message from their own destiny.
