Câți bani ne trebuie pentru a fi fericiți. România, în topul mondial al „prețului fericirii”

Despite lower average salaries, Romania ranks 10th globally in a happiness price index due to lower living costs. The analysis shows that Romanians earn about 76.3% of the estimated welfare threshold, which is higher than several wealthier countries. The economic recovery over the past two decades has improved purchasing power, but disparities in income remain significant. While Romania's cost of living is lower than in Western Europe, rising prices in urban areas are affecting households. The overall economic growth has brought Romania closer to European standards, yet income inequality persists, impacting the quality of life for many citizens.
