You should be very proud of yourselves that you have no credit card debt and that you only have a small loan for the renovation expense. (Most young American couples are saddled with debt.). The easiest way to be frugal is to not succumb to impulse spending - I always wait a few days before I buy something that is tempting but is not a necessity. So glad you are posting more on uTube.
Thanks so much. It’s much harder to take out lines of credit here. In America they make it very easy. 😘😘
You can estimate to pay a little less than 2€ per l. A gallon is about 4 l - so 8€ per gallon - which equals to 9 dollars a gallon.
Thank you, I was looking for that information.
This is a posh lifestyle for sicily. Thanks!
Awesome ~ just found your channel. Yes, it's possible to make a budget for less, especially the food. I love fresh swordfish so will always treat myself to that. 🤩
I enjoyed your video. Thank you🙏👏❤️
$3000/month sounds decent for what seems like an upper middle class lifestyle (2 cars, renovated home, entertainment and dining out). That is all after tax spending, of course.
Sounds perfectly fine - I spend 1,500€ a month for my teenage son and I over here in Germany (700€ fixed expenses and another 800€ on food, clothes, hygiene, school supplies …). My home is not half as nice as theirs - way smaller too.
I think they build a good existence for themselves.
I think they must be high earners - cause I would think Italians only make 1,500€ a months a lot of the time.
WHERE Im at its cheaper. Eastern Oregon. Nothing much here.
I live in Florida and spend about $2600 a month as a single woman with 2 cats.
Stop feeding filet mignons to those damn cats 😀😀😀
There are so many bloggers who sell American audience that Italy is so cheep. Finaly someone honest and realistic. I live in north of Italy, and i can tell its real numbers. We as a family of 3 spend something like that on living expenses. Also childcare ( asilo etc.) Would be interesting to compare.
In respect to America it’s cheaper but then again salaries are much higher in America, so it’s all relative. Exactly, as a family with kids there are just more expenses. And I didn’t even get into shopping/clothes expenses 😳
Sicily is super cheap. These expenses are for a huge house with 2 cars. Not everyone lives like that.
Hi! Nice meeting you both!
Thank you for sharing your expenses.
Where in Sicily did you move to❓
I am coming to Sicily in September for several months, I am registered to go to Italian learning school in Palermo. I am looking for Villages to go and see while I am there, I want to move to Sicily. I would love if you could share.
Thank you so much, Susan 😊
€1.80/liter of gas is approximately $7.42/gallon. We do gas math a lot because we road trip in Italy often... Haha!
Haha yes thanks for catching that! There was a time, around Covid times, that gas was 2.25 a liter. I think I remember that as being 11 bucks a gallon.
Better life all around, enjoy
Hi would love to move to Sicily from UK. We have 2 small children age 13 and 5. What would the schools be like for my children?
Can I ask how much your small loan was to renovate your home, because it’s beautiful and I’d love to know roughly how much would be spent to get a home to that level. Grazie Mille
its nice to know, but the real question is what does it cost to get residency in Italy???? I am looking to move from the United States, but the least expensive places to live have ridiculous hoops and $$ requirements to actually live there.
Where in Sicily do you live?
Mamma mia Italy is a little bit expensive!!
I live in some Asia country and I do for everything with equivalent of 400 Euro at month , apartment for rent in a building of 20 floors , at month 126 Euro , electricity 12 Euro , water 3 Euro, here we not need gas ,because we are all year in hot temperature daily and night about from 28 to 35 degrees!! I have the car and Vespa, every day I eat fish , generally with 8 Euro you can eat a mixed fish !!
Unfortunately Italy pays very much for gas, and this influences also the electricity costs, because most of the electricity comes from thermic power plants that run on gas. We pay a lot for gasoline also, and this influences a lot of costs, because usually goods need transportation.
you mentioned you lived about an hour from Palermo?, which location do you live? I am considering moving to Palermo shortly. Can you tell me the best person or entity to contact to get my grandparents birth certificate. They were born in Palermo. Is there a way to contact you directly?
How much was the nose job ?
How much does it cost to purchase a home in Sicily where you live?
I think I need to make a video on that!
We are moving to Sicily. Is the trash price really $80 a month or was that a mistake?
Depends on how big your home is…that’s an average. Yearly we pay around 800-900€
@@Santindarainitaly O__O My apartment is 70 sqm and in 2023 I payed 246 €. In Rome, not central neighborhood, but not suburb either. How many sqm is your house?
@@SantindarainitalyI’d like to know where you live: trash price in Melfi (Basilicata) is 100 € yearly for my home 130 square meters. BDW the garbage service is excellent.
Sorry, hate to be that person but U.S. isn't 10K a month "easy" as you said for living expenses. Unless your living in New York, LA, or the Bay Area. I live in Lake Tahoe, NV, $2700/month as a family of 4.
No F way dude. Try that in Florida
Why is trash 80 per month. That seems crazy. Did you mean per year??
It is essentially the local property tax, doesn't actually really mean it covers just trash.
You have to move to Hungary, it is a lot cheaper!
Have no idea if youre talking in Euros or dollars?? RUclips streams to all countries
Hi Dara my name is Calogero in short (CAL) Can you help me out Please🙏 I’m making preparations to obtain my Italian citizenship as we speak I was born in Sicily AGRIGENTO. and still have my birth certificate in Sicily.My parents emigrated to Toronto Canada,I was only 5yrs old n never gone back.I’m planning to retire to my place of birth. I’m retiring in a year I’ll be 65. My Question to you is What would my cost of living be for me n my wife if I purchased a home in cash. My whole retirement pension will be $2,200.00 a month CD . Also can you kindly direct me to a realtor if you can Also how is the lifestyle in Sicily. I would appreciate if u can Guide me through this I’m excited to come and spend my last days of my life in Sicily thank you kindly
You have Italian citizenship already.
lol every couple is the same.... the man has absolutely noooooooo idea how much everything costs and they are always surprised at how expensive it is
20-30k all'anno una famiglia normale li vede col binocolo
in che senso, spende di più o di meno?
@@andrewdiprose di meno
It's NOT "way more" in America. I used to live in Sicily and it's more expensive. Water, electricity and gas at home is double what we pay. You pay $80 a month for trash!? That's insane!
You're comparing California prices to Sicily prices. California is so expensive people are fleeing the state because tax money is being used to fund illegal aliens while the homeless people litter the streets with feces and drugs.
Vehicle fuel is OUTRAGEOUS in Sicily, always has been. No, we dobt pay $5 or $6 a gallon, that's Commiefornia.
You have "free healthcare" which is CRAP. I know I lived there and if you dont pay for private healthcare, you get crap care.
Of course you think it's cheaper because you lived in the worst place in America...California.
California is outrageous but I have friends and family all over the east coast and they say prices are high there too. Where do you live?
High but not as high. Oregon and Idaho
I live in the center of Italy. We pay 400 a YEAR for trash. 80 a month is so not realistic.
Thank goodness you moved back to America. People like you are why I now live in Sicily!!!
If I didn't have a mortgage or car payments, I would only spend around $3-500 more than them. Cell is more expensive and Air Conditioning ups the electric.
I’m Sicilian but you guys are horrible
Well-intentioned but laughably clueless and cringeworthy attempt at giving budgetary information.
