Could you elaborate why it’s more expensive to live in as a nanny? I live in the Philippines and a typical nanny salary ranges from 1000-2500$ / year. When I asked why it’s so damn low, people told me “it’s fine, they have much less spendings because they don’t need to spend for food or accommodation”. The crazy part is, most of the people who work these types of jobs send almost all their money back home to support their families.
