he can work in the EU without visa or anything, and its not just germany that needs highly skilled workers, all of northern europe needs well educated people, and its much closer to home, and the chances that he could get back to greece when the economy is turning arent that low, european companys will need a lot of staff in southern europe when the economy turns.


You do realise that we've been waiting for the economy to "turn" for almost 7 years now, and a lot of economic indicators are pointing toward a new global recession coming up within the next couple of years?

To steal a quote: there will be no economic recovery, prepare yourself accordingly.

Japan's been waiting for their economy to "turn" for 20 odd years, so don't hold your breath.

But, yeah, go anywhere where you can find work and build savings (another reason to come to SE Asia, taxes so low anybody can easily build savings). If you can do it being "closer to home" sure. Just don't bank on that factor being of any benefit.



the ecomony in greece will turn at somepoint, when the instability is gone europe will make greece its factory for cheap stuff, the wages are allready lower than in china, and its a lot closer than china. northern europe is doing fine atm, and even states like france have way better chances for a real recovery than the us. on the other hand, working 10 years or so in SE asia could be way cooler than working in a small town n southern germany or denmark, or sweden.
