  But also how much you make? You don't make in EU as much as in US (reading from HN)

  500 euros per month in Amsterdam? I find that hard to believe. Isn't it per week?

    Should be doable if he doesn't have to pay for the rent (already owning his house or staying with his parents) and has a modest life style.
    • collyw 11y ago
      Starting salaries in the UK and Spain are usually around double that.
      • S4M 11y ago
        I thought he was talking about how much he was spending. 500 euros/month is possible if you are very frugal. I agree that 500 euros/month seems very low for a salary in Netherlands.

        That's how much he's saving. He just answered the question posted in the title.

          Ooops, my wrong.

  Sounds very much like you are badly underpaid. Also, congrats on making that work in Amsterdam. If it is true, that is.
