Saudi Arabia has been ranked the world’s best country for balancing salaries with living costs
Saudi Arabia has been ranked the world’s best country for balancing salaries with living costs in a new global study, as Gulf nations continue cementing their reputation as places where pay packets stretch reassuringly far – even as rents and grocery bills spiral across much of the world. The kingdom topped the “cost of living balance” category in Remitly’s Immigration Index 2026, which analysed 82 countries across 34 metrics ranging from purchasing power and housing costs to healthcare, transport, safety and immigrant communities. Researchers said Saudi Arabia performed particularly strongly for purchasing power and mortgage affordability, helped by relatively high wages, low taxation and lower housing costs compared with many other major global hubs.

Calm the fear before the exams - 23 May 2026*
Calm the fear before the exams by Sophrologue et life coach Luxembourg - Alexandra Barancova Who does not know the feeling of being stressed even anxious before delivering a speech, presenting in front of large audience, taking an important exam or awaiting unpleasant medical intervention or surgery? Fear of unknown, fear of the outcome, consequences, being judged just to name a few. One of the powerful tools is going mentally through the whole set of steps, details, even bodily feelings before and even after the event. Employing all senses to go through the future 🫶Effects: empowering, increased confidence, familiarity with the unknown =reduction of fear, less pain. 👌How does it work? Rewiring brain - it cannot distinguish between imagined and real scene Consistency - repetition helps. 🥰 More relaxed body, the brain "recognises" even unfamiliar settings (exam room, hospital, conference room). ✅️Would you like to be guided in this process? Book the workshop by sending email: office@sophrocoach.lu 📅 23 May 2026 | 10:00 a.m. – 11:15 a.m. CEST 💶 Price: 28 EUR Know more - https://link.luxembourgexpats.lu/s9j

France is considering global taxation like the US
France has moved one step closer to adopting a US-style global tax on its citizens that will hit wealthy expats who have moved abroad to lower-tax jurisdictions. The authors of the proposal describe it as a “targeted universal tax” that would apply to French nationals earning five times what is known as the annual social security ceiling, equivalent to around €235,500 (£205,356). https://finance.yahoo.com/news/france-plots-us-style-tax-103751850.html
