Cost of Living - Invidious

Cost of Living

Cost of Living puts the world's money on the table. How much people actually earn, what rent costs, what a week of groceries runs, how much the government takes — and what a paycheck really buys once you're standing there.

Every documentary takes on one country, from the cheapest places on earth to the most expensive, with real numbers and verified sources. Some of it is hard to believe. Some of it will make you look twice at what you're paying back home.

If you're curious about minimum wages around the world, what it costs to retire or move abroad, or just how far a dollar goes in places you've never been — subscribe and hit the bell 🔔 so you don't miss a country.

New documentaries every week.
