Anyway, the net effect is that you can't even ask to live here if you don't have 100,000 in cash. Dahlink, a small area of the city I live in could double your population. rents are comparable to Manhattan THAT low? a single bedroom costs about EUR 3,000 + charges per month I don't think you'd heat the word "Uncle" from the people we shipped you. European dot.commers, for example. Did you know we invented the breed? Very very few Americans though Or it COULD be that we can't stand the smell of so many Frenchmen in close proxomity. And THAT is really not fair :-) YOU POOR THING! Even our gazillionaires are expected to be productive citizens. Living expenses are much higher than anywhere else I have seen (or heard of) I suggest an appointment with an otolaryngologist. Tokyo and London are world’s most expensive cities finfacts.com Then let's say you are renting - rents are comparable to Manhattan, but slightly higher, because there is so much demand for residency (and hence rental space) and there is only so much land and apartments available. A 25 m2 studio (basically, a small hotel room) puts you back EUR 1,000 + charges (of the building) per month minimum. Anything half-way decent, with a single bedroom costs about EUR 3,000 + charges per month. The numbers and just what they apply to are a bit fuzzy here. However, I do belive I know of anumber of places that can matxh or beat them.
