How many euros minimum wage do we expect at the threshold of the Eurozone?

How many euros minimum wage do we expect in case of a possible soon entry into the Eurozone?

This is the question we asked you on our social media profiles and we received the following results:

- 49% are categorical that they expect 1,250 euros

- 27% consider the amount of 1,000 euros to be optimal

- 13% are closer to the current reality and for them 750 euros would be sufficient

- 10% believe that the current levels fully meet their expectations

What conclusions can we draw from these figures?

There is a high degree of hope that the adoption of the euro will lead to significant economic progress and higher incomes.
There is a possible gap between expectations and reality, which may lead to public disappointment if the economic effect of adopting the euro is not sufficiently tangible or quick.
The data also shows a low level of awareness or high degree of idealization around the topic of the Eurozone.

In this context, it is important for institutions and the media to communicate objectively what membership in the Eurozone means and what it can and cannot change regarding people's incomes and purchasing power.
