Maybe :-) As far as I can tell, that's pretty much the average rate for "freelance" programming jobs here. "What should it profit a man, if he should win a flame war, yet lose his cool?"	[reply]

It's almost "the same" as here - eastern europe - somewhere between 1 and 5 euros an hour:)	[reply]

Even then, this doesn't make sense. It depends as well as how much bread you can buy from it. 50 to 75 euro's means nothing if you have to pay about 300 euros per month for insurance, pay about 800 euross each month for a decent house, pay about 40 euro's for your internet connection, pay about 500 euro's for your food... did i mention the price of a car, taxes and .... well, i think i made myself clear (i hope). i'd rather earn 1000 euro's a month and be rich (a great loan if you would get in a state like Turkey, than get 2000 euro's a month and be poor... (in a state like Monaco?) . You get the point.... Forget about the amount of money, but look at the amount of hamburgers you can buy with your loan at McDonalds :-) "We all agree on the necessity of compromise.
