Survey: One in two Greek workers spend all they earn

The survey, commissioned by job-finder website kariera.gr, found that 48 percent of respondents said they spend everything they earn in the course of a month. «Even if it is difficult to put money aside, workers that create a budget within their limits and do not exceed it have a better chance of boosting their savings,» said Theofilos Vasiliadis, kariera.gr managing director, in a statement.
