Today, an under-25-year-old can earn up to a net HUF 443,700, the gross average salary of last summer, after the income of under-25s became tax-free.
The average hourly student wage in Budapest is currently HUF 1,600-1,700.
The figure is HUF 100-300 lower in the Eastern Hungarian and Southern Transdanubian regions, but the difference between intellectual and physical work is no longer as significant as it used to be.
Producing journalism that is worthy of the name is a costly business. For over 30 years, the publishers, editors and reporters of the Budapest Business Journal have striven to bring you business news that works, information that you can trust, that is factual, accurate and presented without fear or favor.Newspaper organizations across the globe have struggled to find a business model that allows them to continue to excel, without compromising their ability to perform. Most recently, some have experimented with the idea of involving their most important stakeholders, their readers.
We would like to offer that same opportunity to our readers. We would like to invite you to help us deliver the quality business journalism you require. Hit our Support the BBJ button and you can choose the how much and how often you send us your contributions.
