3. Good for Romania! I’m looking forward to you folks having Schengen access next month and feel that you belong more in the European family.

4. Correct me if I’m wrong, but average is usually higher than median. I think median is 80% of the average usually (for salaries).

   Edit: 80% in the Netherlands

5. That’s pretty good.

7. According to 2022 data, the median salary is only 55% of the average salary, so it is still only around 600 euros.

8. Congratulations to Romania for achieving this economic milestone in their journey towards increased prosperity.

9. Absolutely thrilling to see Romania hitting such a significant economic milestone! This is not just a win for the average wage earner but a clear signal of the country’s growing economic health and potential. Wonder how this will shape Romania’s position in the European market and what ripple effects it might trigger. Kudos to Romania! 🎉

17. Me and Bill Gates, we have an average of 62.250.000.000 $……it’s great.
    The Median Income should be taken into account.
