Average polish wages, according to his post, are about 12k a year. Average american is around 50k, he would have to multiply his salary times 4 here to match cost of living increase, roughly.

I thought that's for the entire household? And that for individual earners it was closer to $25-$30k? I only ask as $50k seems really high for an average salary - might have to investigate moving over, even ;)

According to Wikipedia, you're right, but for a man the individual median is still pretty close: 45,000 for full time work.
