How much we can save per month if we get 4250 Euro per month staying alone in Eindhoven
DPC on Apr 27, 2024:
Thanks for the calculations, I am planning to move with my wife where we both will be paid around 3k each, will it be sufficient for us?
K on Oct 12, 2023:
Great calc. Exactly on numbers. 1800 rent + 3200 is super lean life style for 4 people(meat or chicken two times a week max) without car. Comfort for 4 pers. starts 8 K and up income for family
