Yes there in the "First world" technology is cheap, and you work and earn in GBP's... Here in Argentina we earn in Argentinian Pesos, the relatioship is 1 Dolar = 3.14 Pesos (1 Euro = 4.5 Pesos). Unfortunatly technology here is in dolars, but wages are in pesos... So, what for you are 100 euros, for me are 400 pesos... I earn monthly 900 pesos as computer programer (Jr.), so it is very expensive for me...
