This is seriously making me consider relocating. Especially if I make a lot of money on Bitcoin and don't need to be stuck in one place for work. Rend is so much cheaper in most other places, compared to where I live. Very cool website to know about.
As the cost of living with what you are in the country, in my case I live in a fair and good place where I can say that I live on average.
The cost of living also varies from the minimum and maximum wages your government has resolved.
The best thing about it is that when we have a lot of money on the BTC and financial freedom, we are very happy.

Considering you aren't paying any taxes yet with your bitcoin profits lol. It can come to mind since dealing with crypto doesn't have as much requirement as having a real job. Though of course, aside from relocating for cheaper cost of living, you also have to consider the stability of your income in crypto.

Right now I've got enough dough to live just how I'd like to live.  I'm not wealthy by United States standards by a long shot, but I have everything I need and a lot of the things I want.  I just bought a beautiful gold-plated fountain pen for $140, and it's been exceeding my expectations and keeping me very amused and satisfied throughout the day.  I don't need big expensive things to keep me happy.  Those are all external solutions to what amounts to an internal problem if that's what you need to be happy.
This makes me sad. Really sad. At one end I see people not being happy even after owning a penthouse and what-not and here I see a person being happy with a 140$ fountain pen. Do people still use fountain pens? Didn't they get outdated? 

OP, the tool is awesome. I was in search of something similar, and is very helpful, to me atleast. Well,guess who is moving to New York? Not me, I can tell you that.

Here you can see how unfair the prices are, in countries where the minimum wage is 1k $ the price of milk, cheese, dairy products and meat is almost the same with my country where the minimum wage is only 200$

it is best to live in Switzerland, they say that there is the highest standard of living.

Switzerland is famous for its strong currency and city state government.  Basically that means their government is limited in its size and spending, excess taxes are actually returned to the citizens not spent as a bonus.   
They have no nominated capital, I think that probably says alot.   I'm trying to think of another country as decentralised as this Grin

They also have a better economy then many places and export alot which goes back to that strong currency and the ability to live as you wish as the nation is not in debt or bound in favour to others.    Strong exports = good living standards at an accessible cost to the population.    Apparently this was true of USA decades back and coincidentally USA was the worlds largest exporter at that time

Let's discuss where to live
Using this tool you can compare cost of living and it's indicators (Cost of Living index, Cost of Living Plus Rent Index, Groceries Index, Restaurants Index, Local Purchasing Power and etc.) for two cities supported by our dataset.
https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/comparison.jsp
I just tried up to compare my place to other expensive places which I was surprised that cost living (rent,groceries,bills) is updated which is actually the right price but there are some areas which it do only focus on fix category but well it isn't bad. This comparison site is really good but been wondering if these data are updated on all sorts?

Cost of living for me includes basic expenses required to maintain a basic standard of living throughout specific geographic regions. Are also used to compare the cost of maintaining a certain standard of living between locations can also be measured in terms of purchasing power parity rates. Like in trading or investing there are times encounter in such failure or successful.

Cost of living is really a big thing for everyone living on different country because cost of living is your state of being a citizen in a nation. Cost of living differs from what country you are in, in my case i do live in a well and fair place where i can say that im living averagely . Costs of living also varies from minimum and maximum wage your government has settled.

It is obvious that cost of living is higher in developed countries. But this is also compensated by higher salary they get.

The cost of living differs from one country to another. May it is in developed countries or developing countries. Those people who have high income have no problem whatever the cost may be. Those who dont, they must live accordingly to avoid themselves from spending beyond their means.

The application does a good job in calculating estimated cost of living for areas covered by their data set, but estimating the cost of living of a particular areas has to do with many other factors.Government policies can affect cos of livinv , for example if the Government of an area decides to move her automobile production plant from City A to City B, the cost of living in City B would increase due to influx of people and workers to city B, while City A would have a reduction in cost of living due to the migration of people away from City A. This just goes to show that cos of living can be immediately affected by Government policies among other reasons.

Cost of living is something everyone should consider and even more so for those of us who can make our living anywhere in the world, but there is more to life than just cost of living, you also have to consider how happy you will be in a certain place. If we look at the countries with the highest happiness ratings we'll often find that they are also among the happiest countries.

When we talk of cost of living, it differs on what country you are in.  But something most of us need to face everyday. This would be easy for people who are stable financially but a problem to those who have none. One thing we can do is to help them understand bitcoin or crypto and be a source of help to them as they struggle with the cost of living.

the cost of living is indeed a benchmark for someone. if our living cost is not proportional to income, it will get a very far comparison. where each region or country has a different cost of living, we must be able to stabilize the cost of living and pengahsilannya. however, there are now several tools that can compare the cost of living and the indicators, perhaps this is helpful for some cities, but not with all cities around the world.

The cost of one's life depends on the lifestyle in jalaninya ...
Many people who have just enough income to meet their needs often impose themselves by following the lifestyle of the people who have more income.




I think It does not matter where you live, it is a matter of how you will try to make you have a better life. I believe that the most important weapon to have a happy and successful life today and in the future is to have full determination and enthusiasm in every moment that you are living in this world.
The cost of living is a big factor for everyone of us. People work hard and struggle to have a better and happier life. In every day of us who are still in this world, we are really responsible for collecting a better profit or income for us to support our financial needs.

I think this Index combines the cost of various components that comprise the basic human needs, creating an aggregate measure that newcomers can emerge into the workforce. Because college graduates consider alternative employment and job seekers are currently considering relocation, the index provides informative footage of rental, transportation, and shopping costs.
The cost of living index compares the cost of living in big cities compared to the corresponding metropolitan areas.

depending on what country we live in, because each country's cost of living is not the same, it can be seen from the regional minimum wages of each region vary.

I agree with that and it certainly depends on the place where you live and I guess we should consider the job that we have before purchasing some apartment for example, here in our country, cost of living is really cheap unlike in Singapore if you are unstable ot was too impossible for you to acquire a proper life since the cost of living is expensive, and I guess Bitcoin can help us to resolved this one.

Cost of living in my country is has become a social problem due to the incompetence and negligence of the government to provide enabling environment for business and job opportunities for the young people in particular, some young people are now focusing on bitcoin and other coins through  bitcointalk forum to boost their cost of living




I think If we look at countries with the highest happiness rankings we will often find that they are also among the happiest countries.
The cost of living is something that everyone should consider and more for us who can make our lives anywhere in the world, but something more important than just the cost of living, you should also consider how happy you will be in a certain place.
