Balkaner Revealed His Pension After 40 Years of Work in Germany: "You Wait Until 67, and In The End..."
Going abroad "to earn a living" has been a reality for many from the Balkans for years, and Germany remains the main destination for most!
TL;DR
- Many people from the Balkans emigrate to Germany for better job prospects and a more stable future.
- A discussion arose on social media about the value of a German pension after 40 years of work, with one user questioning if 1,100 euros is sufficient.
- Some users believe that even this pension is better than what is available in their home countries, where one might have to go into debt to survive.
- Others argue that 1,100 euros is insufficient to live on in Germany and is only viable if one returns to their home country.
- One user suggested a strategy of investing in rental properties during the working years to create additional income or sell for profit later.
- This long-term investment approach could involve taking out loans to buy apartments that pay for themselves and can be sold or rented out after a couple of decades.
