40% of young Poles consider emigration

As many as 40 percent of young Poles (18-24 year olds) want to emigrate because of the lack of money for basic payments, Bankier reports. About 37 percent of respondents state they are not able to make a one-off 300 euro payment without a loan, calculated as a half of the average monthly salary. Equally, the situation is no better among the category of 25-34 year old Poles (25 percent of the same answers). According to the European Commission, the average time spent abroad by Polish immigrants in 2015 was 10 years.
