RE: Countries where I could retire today

in LeoFinance3 years ago

This is a great idea I can’t speak for other countries but as for South African the average income sounds right but I can tell you, you’ll live pretty shittily on $500 a month! I’d say at least $1600 a month should be your base to be okay not great though

Thank you! I'm aware that the average salary is not the best measurement to have a good life anywhere but thank you for the comment I had no idea it would be that much more expensive to have a decent life in South Africa 😅

Oh totally, I get it, I am sure I’d be shocked to learn what a decent living cost in other countries! It has a lot to do with imports so food for example is affordable because it’s local but an iPhone or the internet we pay double and triple for so it also depends on how you live like in any country

I’m keen to see as Bitcoin spreads how it allows us to compare counties with one currency making it easier to see the cost of living changes
