OK so they earn a about one third of an average UK wage. Money isn't evey thing, but you would have to say goodbye to the luxuries in life.
The biggest problem is how certain things would be disproportionately expensive due to them living in the dark ages.
Anybody from Lith care to comment on stuff that is really expensive to afford because of the low wage.
True it does vary massively dependant on where in the country you want to buy. But it is the average price for a house here, which makes it relevant.
Just for comparison i found a project in northern Lithuania 18,000euro!. (£15K)
House 70% complete on a nice plot, big garden.
Which makes houses & land 90% cheaper in Lith. In fact if you spent 180K over here you would still struggle to get anything near as good.
Lets compare taxes & fuel prices & see who gets the worst deal round here.
UK has:
Income Tax (not sure) around 17% + NI 3%
VAT on good & services @ 20%
Fuel price @ £1.42pl for diesel (inc a lot of tax)
A macdonalds meal is - ave £4.50
Average house price - £228,300
