in ex yugoslavia, lets take serbia as example, a cop will earn 200 euros a month.a judge(!!!!) 300euros.
recipe for corruption, brutal
the pensions are less than the above obviously.
montenegro is even worse, they dont even have an own currency they just use the euro.
croatian cops make 1000euros, but living cost exploded there.
slovenia ppl earn 600euros a month and are all in debt,
if you got a job in ex jugoslavia is one thing, getting wage paid is another.
my cosuin works as sexcurity guard, armed, and gets 150euro monthly, supposed to get, and he dont get aid most of the time.has children to feed.
meanwhile in switzerland ,it simpossible, impossible to end up homeless.the govt will take care of you.for they dont want tourists to see any homeless and ppl believe here in helping the poorer dropouts.
pensions in switzerland are basically the full wage one earned before, or if one wants to leave the nation, he can collect all the money at once and go.
if everything else fails, there the dole system, where govt pays for living, healthcare and 1000usd monthly to live you get.
THAT is the current best possible state any govt could build imo.
its a very balanced mix of capitalism and social policies.
yeah i know,balkan countries are fucked up,with a salary of a "normal" worker you cant do anything,builidng a house or buy an appartamnet..let say you start alone at 20-25 years old and you want to buy your own appartament,if the cost of an 50 square meter appartamnet is 100 000 euros you have to get a mortgage for 15-30 years and basicly you will pay double the price of the appartamnet!
of course thats only an example but as i know if you work a normal job in swiss,you can live pretty well!
they dont understand with balkan people,when they go out to work in countryes like swiss,australia etc when they come back they are rich cause the cost of living is not like in country where they live!
give me your example,you work in the hotel for how much hours a week and whats your salary in swiss frank?
and what is suposed to be your pension if you know based on salary,i dont know how it goes if you earn for example 100 000 a year is a pension 60% of a salary so you will get 60 000 a year in pension a year?
