I’m 31 and make about 50k a year … and with about 60% of my salary evaporating just for renting a one bedroom apartment outside of the city …
50k a year is 2660 € per month with taxes deducted. 60% are 1600 €.
WTF! This must be a golden apartment with butler.
TBH I don’t believe you.
I’ll admit it was a pretty rough estimation. I make more like 47k. My rent is 1.045€ including extra charges and a parking spot (the parking spot was not optional) for a 65m² apartment JUST within the city limits of Hamburg. If you wanna include costs for electricity and internet i’m looking at about 1200€ per month just to live there so i feel like my point still stands. Nothing golden about it and sure can’t afford a butler, but thanks for actually doing the math.
