Depends on lifestyle but certainly he could live very well indeed.
with two full time live in chicas if he wants! I can almost make it on just under $1000 per month.

Guess I won't be running into you at Restaurant Bliss.
I would think you could live decent Ie decent place to live, reliable transportation, ok schools etc but not a lot of extra money and you would always feel poor in comparison to the rich folks. It's easier having a mediocre existence in the us and I assume EU because your peers are less materialistic5k for a guy alone or a couple is more than enough to live comfortably. Not like a king though. (At least not in SD).
Family with children is a whole different story. Then 5k isn't enough to live even decent.
I think eating out and running ac don't qualify you for king status.
Well Rfp it's more than more folks can do.... I do any thing I want .... I don't have close to 5k a month coming in and live way better here than is the states....
