In the current society, the monthly salary reaches 4,000 yuan, which is a medium and low level. Such a salary level is basically only enough to support a family of three, but life will definitely be tight. Because, the basic living expenses of ordinary families in first- and second-tier cities, not including buying clothes, must reach about 3,000 yuan. Therefore, the monthly salary of 4,000 yuan is definitely a low level.
Now some netizens have suggested that the current monthly salary is 4,000 yuan, which is equivalent to how much does it cost in the 1980s? Different people have different analyses and the answers are also different. Some people believe that in the past, the price of the price is basically 100 times different now, which is easier to calculate. Now, 4,000 yuan is equivalent to 40 yuan in the 1980s. Some people also pointed out that at that time, most workers' income levels were around 60-70 yuan, and now the income of 4,000 yuan is just right for this.
In fact, a monthly salary of 4,000 yuan is equivalent to how much it costs in the 1980s, because the entire 1980s span is as long as 10 years. If calculated from the early 1980s, 4,000 yuan is equivalent to about 30-40 yuan in the early 1980s, and in the late 1980s, 4,000 yuan is equivalent to 60-70 yuan.
In the 1980s, I was still very young. My parents were employees of state-owned enterprises, and my monthly salary was 60-70 yuan. However, at the time, the salary level was definitely much more comfortable than the current income of 4,000 yuan. The housing unit assigned it at that time and did not have to buy a house. At the same time, my parents bought a few yuan in the state-owned enterprise cafeteria, which always brought me a lot of delicious food. If you get sick and have a cold, you can still enjoy half of the medical expenses, which means you pay half of the medical expenses and the other half will be reimbursed by your parents' unit. `
We believe that the current monthly salary is 4,000 yuan. Even if there is no pressure on mortgages, it is only enough to maintain the normal expenses of a family of three. If you have to pay the mortgage again, life will definitely be difficult. In the 1980s, although state-owned enterprises, teachers and other employees seemed to have only earned a few dozen yuan in salary, they could support several people in the family.
Because, although the salary was not high at that time, there were still various guarantees. Moreover, the income gap between people was very small at that time. The 4,000 yuan I get now can only be used for food and clothing for a family of three in first- and second-tier cities. Therefore, the current 4,000 yuan is really incomparable to the salary of a few dozen yuan back then. The hidden difference is that the gap is too big. Although the income was small in the past, there were hidden benefits behind it, and now there were no more. Therefore, the life of this generation may not be happier than those in the past.
