  • I wanted to see just what I could buy in Albania for €10. Obviously, prices will vary a bit depending on where in the country you are so the prices here in Pogradec will not necessarily be the exact same as the prices in Tirana or Durres, but they will be similar.
    This may make it seem like it would be very easy to live here, because things are so cheap, but many Albanians have a monthly income of only €150-€200 (or less) meaning that even with the prices that seem cheap to many countries, life can still be very difficult.

      @clarkdavison4766 5 років тому

      @@ComradeHellas That wasn't "economic liberalisation" it was a simple power play by the Germans who have always wanted fiscal control of the European Union and therefore most of Europe.
      There was never any way a single currency with a centralised mechanism for inflation control through quantitative easing was going to work for 19 disparate economies.
      I'm guessing from your user name that you are Greek. So you must know about how the Greek economy was run into the ground by the Greek government.
      After Greece adopted the euro in 2001, it was able to borrow at much lower interest rates despite its deteriorating competitiveness and public finances.
      In the decade before the crisis, Greece was able to use this cheap funding to finance a deficit which grew to unsustainable levels.
      Conditions in the euro area during this period facilitated such lending, despite the build-up of the unsustainable deficit. This meant that Greece could delay difficult structural reforms that had become necessary and may have been unavoidable if cheap funding had not been available during the 2000s.
      While government spending and borrowing increased, tax revenues weakened due to poor tax administration.
      At the same time, wages rising much faster than productivity growth undermined Greece’s competitiveness, while low productivity and existing and significant structural problems also contributed to the increasing economic difficulties.
      As a result, Greece’s economy contracted and unemployment began to climb to alarming levels.
      In 2009, the Greek government revealed that previous governments had been misreporting government budget data. Much higher-than-expected deficits eroded investor confidence, causing the yields on Greek sovereign bonds (which correspond to the cost of borrowing money) to rise to unsustainable levels.
      The situation worsened to the point where the country was no longer able to refinance its borrowing, and it was forced to ask for help from its European partners and the IMF.

      Yeah it's cheap for ppl that aren't Albanian cuz if u work here the average pay is like 300-350 if u do the math and u have a rent to pay shit gets expensive all of the sudden but if u live out and u come here for vacation u can literally stay like a month here and do whatever the fuck u want and live the fuck yeah life cuz usually the pay check u guys get from work goes from like 1500 minimum to like 3 k or higher so there is that

    Compared to 2016 in Euro's Albania became a bit more expensive in 2018 due to the conversion rate (from 135 to 125 Leks/Euro) while the prices in Leks were more or less the same. A regular Korça beer (0,5L) was around 150 leks everywhere (Vlorë, Sarandë, Shkodër, Korçë, Pogradec, the cities we were in 2016 and 2018), which means that a beer rose from €1,11 to €1,20 in two years time.

    A tourist will say Albania is cheap because the Albanian Lek is very low currency compared to Euro or USD. It's really cheap for the other people outside Albania but it's definitely expensive for us. Average salary of an Albanian is up to 200€ monthly. Half of the money goes to paying electricity and water bills, whose prices are absolutely sky high, 50€-60€ is only the electricity bill, let's not talk about the food also.

    Once my family and me were in Albania to visit someone from my family. When we got there we saw and store where you could buy some T-Shirts for kids and because i have a little brother who is about 2 years old my mother decide to go there and buy something for him. We entered the store and saw some really nice looking clothes. When we went to get it and ask for the price we saw an even better looking sweatshirt we decided to buy that one but when got to the cashier he didnt let us return the oder T-Shirt and we had to buy both of them because my Mom is such a good person. So i got a really good first impression of Albania.

    I’d like to add something here dear Turist, I really appreciate the fact that you showing in this video how cheap are groceries and coffe, and some other items sure.
    This attracts more tourists, and Albania isn’t a bad country at all, there’s a lot of places ppl would be amassed to see.
    But the maximum wage for an Albanian is around 250 thousand lek, wich is around 250 $ a month, in your country you make 10 times more, you make 2500$ a month.
    I don’t see how albania would be so cheap for albanian ppl, not to mention that the fuel is more expensive than almost anywhere in the world.
    Every tourist is welcome and they can deal with the prices here, but I don’t see how albanian ppl gonna deal with it.
    Maximum albania wage here it’s barely to survive.

      I know you didn’t said that albania was cheap, but you when you figured how many products or services you can get with 10 € it meant cheap prices to me, I guess you compared the prices with your home country , somehow you Told on video how cheap is in here, nothing bad or wrong in here, i just added a comment on your video, good luck man and God bless you. 💯
