It is important to consider that 100,000 annual income is not super common as you generally do not have high salaries in Germany compared to the US. Things like education, health care and everything are things I probably do not have to talk about but the average person will not be placed in such a high tax group and there are many ways to reduce the amount of tax one pays. Couples, families and so on pay substantially less than singles for example and there are quite a few ways for the government to give one special benefits. Also while there is VAT and so on, from my experiences at least, you also generally pay less in housing, groceries and so on compared to the US. That obviously does not go for everywhere and everything; it depends on where you live of course. Also a nice thing to take into it is the import of goods across European countries which is freed of import taxes. That may or may not be a nice benefit for some.
German population is very old, one of the oldest of all Europe. So their public hospitals really need that lot of money. By the way, having 57.000$ by year allow a very confortable level of life in any western European country
@@focusmissy7500 Checking right now, and lowest one I could find (with 2 minutes of research) which is available for new renters is about 1k (heating included) for 75m2 in Obermenzing, 81247 Munich.

The weird part is that USA have nearly the same amount of tax rate and yet you'll have to pay 50k for a ct scan.
Healthcare costs about $6k in germany, whereas it cost around $11k in the USA. That extra 5k doesn't result in better care (US consistently has the worst health outcomes of all developed countries), all it does is go straight into the pockets of middlemen. Oh and that doesn't include the cost of medical procedures and prescription drugs which is marked up tens or hundreds of times in the US.
Taxes are higher than in my home country, but I think the high taxes are reasonable considering that university tuition is free in Germany and hospital consultations are also free.
@@GT-xw7qy Nope, you are completely wrong.

Cost of living depends on where in germany, on average quite high. Salary per profession and retirement benefits are wayyy to long to describe in detail but compared to the rest of the region they are anything from similar to above average. Now as far it being worth it goes that really depends on view point.

you forgot a lot of things, please do further research. For example you forgot the soladary tax of 5,85% which comes on top of everything and the unemployment is 2,6% (2600 Euro and not 900). Search for "Brutto Netto Rechner Deutschland". Out of 100 000 you get out 49 000
What tax group? Is the guy earning 100k married? better or worst earner of the pair? single? separated with a kid? These will determine your tax class and accordingly taxes vary drastically depending on which class. Also, at 100k the person is probably privately insured, which makes the public insurance (in the description) less relevant to the conversation (private insurance is a flat rate as opposed to public insurance, you can opt out of public insurance if you earn over 60k which also saves a lot of money for the consumer but is a reason why public insurance is so expensive since better earners don‘t pay in the public system). If the guy is married and earns more than his partner, has private insurance, and no kids, he should net 68k a year, much more than this video suggests, (and btw much less percentage-wise than single low earners!!) If he‘s single, that‘s 10k more in taxes!!!! I hate that sht!
