Both ought to be left out. Ankara ist completely in Asia and Constantinople is more than half in Asia.

Fuck off. Fuck all the way off. Then fuck off some more.

If you want someone to invest into high-risk ventures, have the ultra-rich do it. They can afford it. Or the institutions which literally exist for this purpose: banks.

Feucht.

Your comment seemed neutral in tone.

I see what you did there.

I'm glad I could shed some light on it. I get mildly annoyed every time a non-Swiss European - only having heard of typical Swiss incomes and nothing else - acts as if we were super rich.

I mean we're doing ok, but our prices more than match the incomes.

Spending 72% (3600 at 5000) is literally impossible if tax is 20% and mandatory health insurance is 7%. (Net income in Switzerland is before taxes and other mandatory expenses.)

In any case I'd seriously advise against spending more than 30% on living spaces.

I don't think so. People aren't going to Portugal because housing is "cheap", they can get that anywhere. They go there because Portugal is beautiful, safe, and has a rich culture.

Switzerland is wealthy but not that wealthy. A typical monthly net salary for a normal person might be in the 5000-7000 area. So you can see that a rent of 3600 is not sustainable and one of 8000 is impossible.

Normal people just don't live in the city centre unless they inherited ownership, share flats, or something like that.

The problem isn't people immigrating, the problem is leaving housing to the "free" market. Having a roof over one's head is as basic a need as food and water. States should pass laws to ensure everyone has a place to live. Let the rich speculate with mansions all they like, but protect the needs of normal people through rigorous laws.

One part of it, not even most of it. If a little part of something defines that something then France is an island in the pacific.
