I make about €48000 after taxes in Romania. And while the standards of living might be the same, it only matters while we are not competing for the same goods. You can afford a better car than me, better electronics, nicer trips in foreign countries, and so on since those kind of goods tend to have the same prices no matter where you live.

Also, your savings means more.

Wow, that's insanely impressive. Can I ask how that's possible? I'm making that *BEFORE taxes, in Austria, Which nets me significantly less than you in take home pay and savings.

I have 15 years of experience and I know how to sell my services.

It's kind of low wage for Austria. At my former working place, my colleagues from Germany made €5-6000 / month, at least.

Are you working for a company in Romania or remotely for a US one?

I might consider retiring back to Romania is salaries back home have gotten that high.

For a company in Romania.
