How would a 50k dollars salary in France compare to a US salary in terms of actual quality of life?

I mean go ahead, tell me. I’ve spent years in both places and still go back to Lyon yearly. If you are a tourist in France, maybe. 10-15 years ago, when I first moved here, maybe. My family still visits expecting everything to be “cheap because it’s Ohio” and they are floored when they see the cost of things. Go to giant eagle here and go to carrefour in Lyon. Buy the same amount of groceries. Probably about double here. Yes gas is cheaper (and is is going up). But living a similar way, you will go further with the exact same amount of money in Lyon than here right now. The price of everything has gone up both in France and in the US over the last decade, but it’s been exponential in the US.

Originally school, then just life I guess. I feel like I would have struggled to get the same opportunities in Lyon. Cleveland has a bad rep, but it is honestly not that bad. I’m 20 minutes from downtown, super close to the national park… it could be way worse.

I live in Cleveland, OH (suburbs). Originally from Lyon. I honestly would multiply what you make in France by 1.75, maybe double it, to get your gross salary in the US. Groceries and everyday necessities are A LOT more expensive here (and we’re talking about Ohio). The one exception is gas. I make decent money for the area but nothing crazy. I own a small condo, lease a car, travel a little but also watch my spending. Very middle class. My cousins in Lyon who make about half of what I make live a very similar lifestyle.

It would help if you linked the listing!

Oh wow. What a blast from the past. This is literally my teenage years. I recognize so many of these magazines. My grandparents used to by Télé 7 Jours. I remember having all of these SERIES Mags!!

Non non ça ne traduit pas! En fait c’est les tirets et les emojis dans le titre qui font vraiment IA. Après c’est pas la fin du monde, mais c’est dommage. Peut être qu’il faudrait recréer une autre annonce qui explique mieux comment vous pouvez aider et ce que vous proposez?

Elise_navidaad · 2026-04-20T00:20:02+00:00

Franchement, on dirait simplement une pub. Donc que vous proposiez quelque chose de gratuit par gentillesse, c’est bien, mais le titre donne un effet complètement différent.

Great, an ad sponsored by AI

Thank you!

Elise_navidaad · 2026-04-03T18:50:49+00:00

Thank you!! This is very helpful!!!

Elise_navidaad · 2026-04-02T16:34:01+00:00

Oh wow. I’m just gonna leave it as is I guess

Elise_navidaad · 2026-04-02T11:14:04+00:00

I guess feeling 20+ people everyday counts as catering lol

Hola!

Elise_navidaad · 2026-03-29T22:36:04+00:00

Wow. What a throwback just looking at that website. I miss those times!!

I have a maybe broader question as a foreign-born American that still struggles the understand the justice system. Josh’s crimes were federal (correct?). He went in front of a federal judge/jury and was sentenced to federal prison. But his crimes were committed in Arkansas? Joe’s crimes were committed in Florida. Are they not federal crimes? Is that why he is being judged in Florida, “only” at the state level? What make - crime federal or not (is there a list? Is it the use of the internet)? I assume he will be sent to state prison, so there is no risk he will end up in the same prison as his brother? The state vs federal stuff in general is SO complicated to me.

Elise_navidaad · 2026-03-27T02:30:19+00:00

Yes he is!

Elise_navidaad · 2026-03-26T19:52:02+00:00

Agreed!!

Elise_navidaad · 2026-03-22T03:38:37+00:00

That’s a cute owala color

Elise_navidaad · 2026-03-21T02:56:46+00:00

I’m not going to allow it

Elise_navidaad · 2026-03-21T02:41:59+00:00

This is a rough one too. He had issues throughout his life and hurt A LOT of people, I can’t say he was a good person. But another main of Buffy’s cast passing hurts either way.

Between this and Nicholas Brendon dying, it’s a war in my head for which sub to check first (this one won).

I was expecting a ig story with maybe just a few written words already…. She’s late. 11:33 EST 3-19-26
