Budapest inquiry by Milan.K
Hi everyone! I have been offered a job in Budapest, and I don't have a clue what is the cost of living there, so, I'm asking you guys here, if anyone is in Budapest, would salary of some 900 euros be enough for decent living in Budapest?
![Milan.K Milan.K](/images/avatars/default/man3.png)
Well, as you said, I don't want to go there with the plan to leave, of course. The only reason for me to even think about leaving is because of the financies, everything else seems more than ok. Also, I don't want to take breaking of contract into ... Read More

But this one is a little bit different - they will send me to training all across the world, with everything paid, so, that's a quite big investment for them to just let go. If I want to bail out earlier, I will have to pay a little bit over $2000 ... Read More

You're right, but I can't leave if it gets rough, it's a 2-year contract. Read More

Update - company rule is to NOT fix the salary in euros, so, they won't make exception just for me. It seems that I'm not so special, after all. :) Anyway, I have to decide tonight. And I don't have a clue what to do. :| Read More

Yes, you said it - if forint goes down, interests will go up, and, therefore, prices, and if I'm getting the same amount of forints, while the prices has gone up, I'm losing there, I can buy less for the same amount. It's the same here in Serbia - ... Read More

No, I won't be getting 270000 if forint goes to 300(yes, I mean 300 forints for 1 euro), because my salary is fixed in forints. I would still get 247500 forints, but that would be only 825 euros then. And that is the main problem. I know that I will ... Read More

I'm ok with receiving salary in forints, but I want it to be defined in euros. I'm looking at it from Serbian point of view - all prices will follow whatever happens with forint euro, apartment prices also, so, I could end up with much smaller ... Read More

Hi Guys, thanks for the answers! At the end, I decided to accept the offer, but then I found out that my salary would be tied to forints, not euros, and that scared me away. I did some research on the internet, and decided that I shouldn't accept ... Read More

Thanks for the answer. It's net amount. I'm coming alone, without car. No big needs, it's not an adventure move, it's a career move, since the company is pretty big and serious, so, it would probably help me a lot in my future career. Also, I am ... Read More
