Ukraine 🇺🇦 Some people have never knew nothing about this country. For some people this is geographical point in the middle of Europe, nothing more. Even for some of my people, the citizens that has a power to rule the country, this is nothing more than a source of resources for their enrichment. Sad but true. But what is Ukraine is indeed? This is pearl in gorgeous queen's necklace, an oasis in the middle of desert, a tiny pansies on the rock. This is a beautiful, full of nature riches, but vulnerable country. Vulnerable before own people first of all. Why? There are a historical factor (learned helplessness), absence of personal responsibility for doings, and maybe fear. When I go outside I see a sweet summer flavor and winter full of incredible snowflakes, I see a golden autumn leaves gone by the wind, I see a filled with water spring green grass and tiny flowers on the trees. I want to my Ukraine became stronger. Such like the small seed became a huge oak.

Personal budget Nowadays a personal budget planning is in the priority. Especially in Ukraine. There is not a secret that our income level awfully low comparatively with our spendings. For example the average salary in Ukraine is about 7-10 thousand UAH (it's about 300-350 USD per month). The taxes are already included. The taxes amount is about 35 percent (taxes that paid by workers plus taxes that paid by employer). If you want to rent the apartment, you should be able to give more than a half. The cost is vary between 3 to 8 thousands UAH per month, depend on region. If you want to buy the apartment the price is about 30-50 USD. After that you must be able to pay the utilities. The amount depend of region, season and square feet, but mostly it's between 0.5-3 thousand UAH per month. After that all that was left is distributed between food, transportation, clothing, health ant other. Prices: fuel is about 1.2 USD per liter, bread is about 0.5-1 USD per item etc. Of course there is a rich people i Ukraine. But year after year the middle class are disappear, and a gap between rich and poor becomes a bigger. The usual person who works hard all month must be able to plan his budget very wise. But I believe that very soon all will change and usual Ukrainian people will be able to afford much more than they can today.
