How this calculator works
We add up typical monthly costs for your home, car, travel, eating out and everyday living in each city, plus the amount you want to save. Then we work out the yearly salary before tax you'd need, using a rough tax rate for that country.
The careers shown come from DreamLyfe's career library, picked because their top salaries can cover that amount. Want matches based on who you are? Swipe through the full DreamLyfe flow — it's free.
All figures are rough estimates for guidance only. Real prices, taxes and salaries vary. Always check official sources.
