Bro your job search is way easier as a ME than a lot of folks. You can even get a shitty government job for like $40k no problem.

I have close to that in Poland and honestly it is not A.D. much as you mamy think. A House somewhere nice costs at about 250k and a nice flat about 150 - 200k. Cost of living is a little bit cheaper than Western Europe. You feel rich but you’re really just middle-class. The problem is that being middle class in EE is considered rich here and unless you’re in nice areas of a handful of developed cities you’re surrounded by envious poors.

I'm from Germany and I know not one single engineer who has managed to save up half a fucking million in his early 30s. Most people are lucky to have managed to save up 150k by the time they hit 30. 500k is unheard of.
This doesn't even make any sense that you claim to be from EE, having worked there, be a wage cuck and having saved half a million. Pure larp.

Half the engineers I know in Bulgaria have AT MINIMUM 200-300k saved up in their late 20s. 500k in their early 30s is pretty much expected.
Not to mention that 20-30% of the Scrypt hash rate in 2012-2013 came from here (more than 2000 gpu-s just between my closest friends). HODL-ers got rewarded.
The myth that Germans have it easier is going away. In the age of the internet being taxed less is more important than the state of your country.
Of course, once you accumulate 2-5 mil, Germany is a significantly better place to live in than Bulgaria, but Eastern Europe has better class mobility, whereas in Germany if you're born a wagecuck, you'll be taxed down every time you try to jump the social hierarchy.

Forgot to mention.
>t. Lived in Germany and Bulgaria
40k eur/year salary in Beriln in 2014, barely survived, while living in a 15sq.m apt in Neukolln between the turks and sketchy individuals
70k eur/year salary in Munich in 2015 - much better, but still only around 3k eur a month net. Giving 1k for rent and another 1k to live, I couldn't really live well either.
Returned to Bulgaria...
2017 - 50k eur/year salary + 15k in bonuses. Net 43k/year from salary alone, spent 4k/year sharing a luxury apt with gf. Ate out every night and still saved up around 30k/year from salary and 10k from bonuses. Invested in VTSAX through a local company and also bought BTC when Mike Hearn quit the project and it crashed. Also bought ETH at $40.
