Pure shit
My only thought is never ever vote for the right.
I am sure this is not a normal situation. A crisis is coming soon.
In my case I’m making way more money compared to 2019 because there’s more work to do, and since I’m a business owner I profit off of that, I had 3 workers in 2019, now I have 8, but that’s not what happens to most people, they make around the same or a little bit more (maybe 10-15%, but housing/renting is like 30-50% more expensive, food is about 30% more expensive, and everything else 10-20% more expensive. So they’re in a worse position than in 2019
Maybe people working in tourism yes, we had a record last year of visiting tourists.
In my company, located in Madrid, to put an example, my colleagues with salaries between 35k-40k struggle to pay the rent and go on vacation 1 week per year. Salaries have been increased but much less than the cost of life. Also I think that the numbers are not as good as the socialist government says
Not even close, we’d need very profound reforms for us to have positive prospects for the future, we are pretty behind economically from the better part of europe, and we’d been falling behind even more for a lot of time now. If there aren’t changes pro open market and liberalization of the economy we are going nowhere. Hope a spanish milei pops up soon and then we could talk about it.
People can’t pay rent, young families can’t afford to have kids, nor to have the same purchasing levels their parents had 30 years ago to buy a house, the only solution for many professionals is to leave the country to get competitive salaries. But the economy is booming…
On the macroeconomics level, Spain is doing great.
Now, how did we achieve all this growth? By receiving a massive influx of immigrants, most which do not pay a huge amount in taxes but do end up working low paid wage jobs in the service industry, driving up growth.
All this is doesn’t necessarily translate to a quality of life increase if housing/energy / food prices are thru the roof and qualified Spanish graduates are leaving Spain in droves, leaving only the aforementioned immigrants to actually generate any money.
I’m happy the economy is booming even though some people are struggling with the cost of living. Better this than high unemployment rates and foreclosures.
However, at the same time I am a bit concerned because every time the Spanish economy booms, there is a global crisis within 2/3 years
