I need to know the taxes diacounted from your wage and supermarket prices, because all the rest I've researched. A 70m2 apartament rent (not in the city) 950 Utilities 220 Condo expenses 200 Internet 35 Transportation 135 (45 each monthly pass) Cleaning 200 Cabe tv 50 Supermarket 1000 (  ) Total 3,000 euros So if a couple gets 2,500 each (after taxes) it is more than enough. Seblux, help me here. I may be missing lots of things. You will need money to pay for your kids to be kept after school (I don't know how old they are!), Money for their activities too! Transportation? Well if you have a car you need to think about the insurance too! Gas is expensive too! You will need to insure your home as well! How about phones? You will need mobile phones! Health Insurance as well, then food, clothes, restaurants, holidays... I mean don't get me wrong, you can live with 5000 EUR a month, but life is pretty expensive here, if you go out with your husband, have a drink + food, this will cost you 100 EUR minumum! |

When I'm a millionaire -- fingers crossed -- I plan on living in the Grund. A guy can dream, can't he???

I just want to leave Brazil ASAP... never liked the country and the political party in power for 12 years makes me mad. Plus the increasing violence (been robbed twice with a gun pointed to my head). But again, I will only go if I feel some sort of security regarding employment.

When I'm a millionaire -- fingers crossed -- I plan on living in the Grund. A guy can dream, can't he??? The bridge crossing the Alzette is a particularly scenic spot and it's nice to sit out on Scott's Pub patio in the summer and look up at the city while enjoying a cold pint. I know that real estate in Luxembourg City is expensive, but I wonder what an apartment would cost in the Grund?  |

Back in the 70s, 80s, no one wanted to live in the Grund, very difficult to access, almost impossible to park.
Now it has totally changed, the area has been fully renovated and is one of the top spot in the city, filled with pubs, clubs, walks etc...
Of course it means it's almost impossible to buy something there!

Of course it means it's almost impossible to buy something there! Yeah, as soon as the hipsters start moving in, then it's game over. I'm joking but I know what you mean. Wasn't the Grund, and I'm talking about 100 yeas ago, a village that mainly housed the day laborers and soldiers? It was not, as you point out, the fashionable locale that it eventually became today. The Grund was basically working class section of the city. Those who were privileged and wealthier tended to lived up in the "high" city where the courts, city administration, banks, etc, were also located. Seblux, do you know when the elevator system was installed? That, as they say in America, must have been a 'game changer' for people considering living in the Grund. Also, does that elevator operate 24 hours a day? |

The Grund lift has been operating for over 20 years. Not sure if it operates 24 hours a day, but it has always been open for me after my nights out in the Grund's pubs  |
