The 29-year-old from Zagreb has a salary of 1,800 euros, 20,000 in savings and one worry: 'I'm not smart...'

A 29-year-old user from Zagreb shared his financial struggles on Reddit, expressing frustration over the high cost of buying property. He earns 1,800 euros monthly and has saved around 20,000 euros, but he finds it difficult to afford a home due to rising prices and additional costs like parking and furnishings. He considers taking out a loan of between 160,000 and 170,000 euros, but remains uncertain whether purchasing a home or renting is more viable. Other users on the forum share similar concerns, with some suggesting gradual steps toward homeownership while others advise saving more before making a purchase.
