But if I save money in the US I can decide to spend it anywhere else in the world later, including places that are much cheaper than Toulouse.

If I make money in Toulouse then I had better really love Europe, since I will have limited resources to relocate elsewhere if I ever change my mind.

Tl;dr one advantage of getting paid in money over services is that money is much more portable.




You can buy houses outside of Toulouse for 300k with swimmingpool and 4000 square meter land. 20 min drive from Airbus. Winter time you can ski in the mountains, summers are nice and cities like Barcelona can be reached in 4,5 hours. 80k is more than enough to have a super comfortable life.
