>>14346127that would also mean that there are old people migrating into moldova, otherwise how would you explain the wider upper half of the graph?
nevermind that, there are three kinds of people that leave:
1) smart people that go to countries like the US for much higher payment of high-qualification jobs, and mostly return here afterward to settle down
2) stupid people that think they'll have a better life just by moving to another country, and then have to return after all of their savings run out
3) those who have family in other countries and choose to live with them
Finally I want to say that before gas prices were raised, I was really smug, knowing that Moldova will be a better country to live in than western europe in a few decades, but after that happened, I kind of lost hope. I'm staying here till the end anyway, since it will definitely be better than Ukraine and that's enough for me
Also interesting fact: did you know that among gypsies, travelling to scandinavian countries, then commiting a crime to get locked up in their luxury prisons is popular, because the quality of life in those is much better than what they can realistically achieve normally?
