A normal monthly fee for a normal worker who already worked for some years and who is single would be between €1500 and €2000...
Curiosity question about that:
You make a number of references to family size (or lack thereof). Assuming we are talking about earned income (salary) and you are not factoring in payments under some government welfare program -- what does that have to do with anything?
I would hope that you are
not suggesting private employers in Belgium take in consideration family size to decide how much to pay people for the same work.
Or, perhaps, are you referring to after tax money and the difference in taxation based on family status?
