However, if Emily prefers to live in Europe, the best options would be Amsterdam or Rome. In both places, she would save one-third of her salary, as her lifestyle would cost $4,189?of her $6,155 wage in Amsterdam and $2,645 of her monthly $3,863 paycheck in Rome. ? If Emily decided to move to Prague, Athens, Budapest, or London, she would be in debt each month, even before the amount she spends on designer items is deducted.? Emily’s biggest expense?could be reduced by 56 percent if she moved to Athens, as the average monthly rent is $641, compared to $1,453 in Paris. ? In terms of local salaries for marketing execs, Emily would earn the highest amount in Chicago at $7,171 per month, followed by Amsterdam at $6,155 and then Paris at $4,284. Her salary would be the lowest in Budapest at $976 per month.? Emily is renting a one-bedroom apartment in the city center of Paris for $1,453 per month.

Paris is renowned for its exquisite cuisine and Emily enjoys this to the fullest by dining out frequently at restaurants around Paris.
