    Exact number is between 3100-3200 EUR/mo after tax. My current salary is fixed by the government and is under a preferential tax treatment (no income tax first 3 years, only social security)

    Number might seem low… but in comparison, the country’s median salary is like 2500-2600/mo, 2800+/mo where I live. I also don’t spend a lot (I literally don’t know how to spend more than half of my monthly salary at the moment) so I feel like a king here lmao

    The literal same job title I had in Chicago was $61,008/yr exact before tax in Chicago and I definitely felt poor. Enough to survive, but poor
