Most folks expenses aren't dropping by 20%. I've been remote since March, but my rent/life/expenses (key) hasn't changed. If anything, I'm paying more now for utilities and food since I'm home all the time.

Article is specifically about folks moving out of sfba so unless you moved to zurich i assume your expenses should go down

Honestly, I think rent in Zürich is less than sfba. It's just eating out that is more expensive, but supermarket food quality is so high people just cook more.

Honestly i gave up on finding whole foods quality produce there (meat and seafood specifically) but yeah other than food it’s cheaper now

[snovv_crash]

Meat is easy to find extremely high quality, but also eyewateringly expensive. Often people make deals directly with farmers.

Seafood, well, Switzerland is a landlocked nation. There aren't any good surfing spots either, but skiing is 1.5hrs to the slope by public transport.

But you haven't moved right?
