Tell us What Is Considered Good Salary According to You? 💰

A typical middle class dual income household with 2 kids making about 40 000 + 30 000 gross will net a bit over 600 000/year. This will allow them to live in a detached house in a decent area (typical cost around 200 000/year incl. all bills), drive a reasonably new car (typical cost 100 000/year), eat and dress reasonably well (150 000/year), take a couple of holidays (75 000/year) and save a bit. Healthcare, childcare and education are (mostly) paid for by taxes.

300 kr/hour is 48,000 kr in 20 days. He made it sound like it's a regular salary.

as a man with 2 boys and a girlfriend who live together, i can say it is hard to make it with a "regular" salary here in sweden, 32% of the salary goes to taxes, then you pay 25% tax on everything else, exept alcohol, that is 40%.... so if you dont like taxes, do not move to sweden! you have to pay ALOT of taxes here... to be able to live as a family here in sweden you need to earn atleast 45000kr a month.

Nice to see people not seeing it as a taboo to share salary info. Though its kind of public info feel like ppl don't loke to share

The median wage in Sweden 2024 is 34,200 SEK. After tax this ~ 27,000 SEK

*If you are a young youth =6500 after tax
*If you are single both male/Female =25,000 after tax
*If you are a married man/Woman =35,000 after tax
*If you are married with 1,2,3,4 kids=50,000 after tax
*According to my analysis this will be the best for sweden.

I like this video, I was looking for information about it.

Hr and Payroll managers have left the chat..😉

I would say that 30K is a normal salary for blue colour workers.
That means that one get about 20K after taxes.
However, the taxes take care of almost all other things, one seldome have to pay for more then ones dayly living costs.

Funny thing is Salaries don't increase proportionately as you age in Sweden compared to other countries..

good to know! thanks!

A teacher earns 42000 per month before taxes, after taxes 30000. The average salary in Sweden 2024 for men is 42000(30000 after taxes) and for women 36200 for full time jobs. Not even the doctors have 70000 after taxes.

my opinion? in 2013 with a 20000 sek netto, so brutto around 28k me and my family lived a better life than now with 35k netto, because of high inflation... i would say if it goes up with 12k netto, we will get back to the level from 2013. So that means salary should be at least 40k as the lowest wage...

I have brother in Sweden and I was going there a few times.Wonderful county with the most beautiful girls on this planet but what I also saw that is one of the most expensive countries where I was ...Its really really very expensive and I suppose you must have very very good income if you want to live good life, other wise you surviving.

50k? 60k? 70k? These people are honestly insane.

You need about 20k to live in Sweden: 4k in taxes, 3-4k for food, 6k for housing, 1-2k for transportation and then you have ~5k left for other stuff. With 30k you can afford a large apartment (villa if you're a couple), a nice car and some traveling. 40k+? That's all luxury.

Students can live off as little as 10k just fine honestly (3k housing, 3k food, 1k transport, 3k misc).

I think the most realistic people here say around 30 000. That goes up as you grow older and work longer in your profession but if you work at like, volvo, and work on the factory floor, somewhere between 25-35 000 before taxes is normal. If you make over 40 000 before taxes you definitely are in the higher earning classes. But if you go to university and such, you will most often make over 40. I don't know if this is in Stockholm or Gothenburg or something because they usually make more, but it also costs A LOT more to live there

Big difference where you live, when talking about cost of housing and renting. Average income in Sweden is around 36k a month and everything above that would be enough for most people. But as always, the life-style you choose will be the most important factor.

Yes taxes are high but we have free education etc etc

Vi behöver tala även med arbförmed l, Försäkringskassan osv varför det fortfarande är väldigt milt sagt helt omöjligt matematiskt att försörja sig i landet på heltid och det har ju inte blivit bättre genom årtiondena.
