FAANG companies hiring people in Italy do the same. If you can find a stupid employer who'll pay you a San Francisco salary to live in Souther Italy, then good for you, but that's _rare_.

The 'robust safety net' that you think is in place in Italy is a poor-people subsidy which is currently being discussed because totally abused by a lot of users (and it's becoming unsustainable for Italy's devastated economic situation). So the only good thing the author did is fleeing this ticking bomb.

4. Flee Italy, the most corrupt of 1st world countries 5. Do not even attempt at reproducing in a healthy family in first world countries ESPECIALLY IN ITALY (https://interessesuperioredelminore.wordpress.com/2020/11/01...). It's a russian roulette pointed to your head and whatever you do, it's out of your control if your life will be completely ruined for corruption.

By keeping these additional two rules in mind, you can live a decent life, albeit a quite meaningless one if you, like me, was born with the idea that forming a happy family is the best thing you can do within your lifetime. Drop that pal, it's no longer the right period of time (if it ever has been).

'just go with prenups' is m00t if corrupt magistrates are involved. And most of them in the first world are corrupt. For money.
