Most, 52.8%, say they are satisfied only „to some extent”.
Financial dissatisfaction is also reflected in everyday life: almost 70% of respondents say they feel the pressure of expenses frequently or very frequently.
Only 6% say they do not feel financially burdened. The main reasons cited include rising utility costs, bank rates, or the inability to keep up with price increases, even if their lifestyle has not changed.

Another 22% say they would need income between 8,001 and 10,000 lei, and 13.3% believe that only a salary of over 15,000 lei would ensure their financial comfort.
