Forget it!!!

Even a profesional as employee at present earns not even enough to rent a simple small apartment. Not to speak about food etc.

The only way to earn enough for a halfways decent life is to open your own business.

Very well off are those who get their money from abroad, like a pension or such. Due to the de facto exchange rate they are rich people, even if the get very Little.
