      That is true for Southern and Western EU, but not for Eastern EU though. I grew up in the 90’s. I am already richer than my parents were back then and it is true for almost everyone in my age group that I I know.

        Oh yeah, definitely. I had a Romanian colleague who moved to Western Europe to give it a try. He went back to Romania after a few months, and when he explained me the way he was living there, I couldn’t but understand.
