Hey Guys,

I know there are 1000s of posts about Shanghai living standards/expenses, but I decided to create a new one as the decision should be made soon whether I would like to move or not.

Location: Shanghai
Apartment: paid by the company
Salary: 20k - 25k RMB per month after tax
Other benefits: Travelling back to Europe 2 per year (paid by the company), mobile paid by the company

I will be living alone, although my friends/family will be visiting me evry few months.

So, what do you think? Will i survive in Shanghai?

thank you and kind regards
Daniar

25K is plenty to live in Shanghai.

If you're older, maybe you'll have different expectations.

Depending on you livestyle you can easily safe 15000 every month. 5000 should be enough to live if your apartment is payed.
