Why would property be expensive in Portugal with its sinking economy?
I suppose you "have" to live in the center of Lisboa?

By no means should you expect that you have already achieved your maximum salary.Originally posted by Tuga View PostI came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

You're giving pointless advice, Dan.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect. I will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”

45 years to earn enough money to buy a house? Let's say Tuga earns EUR 1000 a month,
which I believe is about the average in Portugal, that would mean he's aiming at a home
that costs 45 * 12 000 = EUR 540 000, or $720 000. I find it hard to believe that that's
the average price of a house in Portugal...Comment

I'm not sure how much is the cost of living in Portugal, here in Italy with 1k/month you're going to struggle to reach the end of month, save up to buy a house with that kind of salary is out of discussion, not now, not in 45 years

Yeah, I sort of expected that he was only able to put 1/4 or 1/2 towards the house.
Which still leaves a home costing 10x average salary.
In the US, a home usually costs 2-3x average salary except in places like NY.
Now of course, maybe living in Portugal is awesome like living in NY and people should pay for it?

The prices are about the same as Washington DC prices. Maybe slightly more expensive.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.
