RAMROD 117,892 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 #5, #6, and #8 are only unaffordable if you're doing low tier jobs. But HK is spot on though. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ✧*:･ﾟ ⁱᵐ'ᵐᵃ ʰⁱᵗ ᵈᵉᶠʳᵒˢᵗ ᵒⁿ ʸᵃ, ˡᵉᵗ'ˢ ᵍᵉᵗ ⁱᵗ ᵇˡᵃᶻⁱⁿᵍ﹗ (*´艸｀*) ♡♡♡ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
malazam 15,710 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I was waiting for Monaco to be the #1 or something like that but I remembered everyone is rich there but I didn’t expect Hong Kong to be the #1 or LA to appear on the list another shot before we kiss the other side Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where I live the lowest income is around 300€ and the apartment I live in was 70 000€ short of 500 000€ and it's not even like a very big one just that it's downtown and renovated.
