I checked the prices in supermarkets/markets/bazar with the ones in Germany. The results, their is no big differences. Can someone explain me, how can people who live in Türkiye, are able to buy foods?
Depends. (For a family of four with the income of one experienced teacher and no spending for rent) You can eat steak 30 days a month. But you shouldn't have extra spendings and should track for the cheapest prices for that. If there's someone in the family who loves keeping their wardrobe full, if they go for events such as concerts or if they go to cafes it gets harder. If the family is renewing their phones annually or car in every 3-5 years or if they're living in rent it's almost impossible (1 steak per month maybe?).
If the family has the income of two teachers, they can eat steak everyday with extra spendings.
In short, one teacher can provide meat to an average family few to several times a month.
I know a lot of families of teachers (including mine). I hope this helps you understand the middle class. Oh and eating out is so expensive. Gotta be your own chef
Salary of teachers = 2,5 to 4 minimum wages. Calculations are based on prices in an average city. These are not accurate for Istanbul or any other expensive city.
