I just find that Americans have little understanding on how things run in Europe. But same goes the other way around.
If you want to earn a lot - you go contracting in Europe.
I used to save about half of my income when contracting 6 years ago in London. My rate was 470 GBP for 220 days out of the year. My expenses were taxes and 700GBP in rent. I saved 60k after tax... and I used to fly business class to Thailand, NYC and Mexico.
My income is technically higher, but expenses are through the roof. You sneeze here and it's $20 gone.
