Hello everybody!
Just want to know how much Stark salary in your country. Sure we know it, 100$ so so. But here, in Russia, cost of that is 88,2$ today. And the salary in Russia is about 500-550$ is quite nice. I live in Khabarovsk, it is Far East near the China. So instead of Stark salary in my city i can buy 60 hamburgers or 171 white breads or 100 litres of Coca-cola or spent it on 240 tickets on bus in the city or i can go to the GYM 10 months (it is cheap for me, usually Stark salary is enough for 2-3months) or i can pay for the apartments (gas, electricity, hot and cold water,centralized heat supply), i can go to the cinema 24 times, buy smartpnone (really bad quality), or play WOW 11 months.
So what you can do with Stark salary in your city?

    Holy ****, the one thing that sticks up is how cheap cinema is there! Like ridiculously so. Here in Australia, a Stark Salary is $130 but the minimum salary per week is $640. $130 are 27 Big Macs, or 86 litres of Coke, 35 public transport 2-hour passes and 6 cinema tickets. (10 of the cheapest possible ones)

    $159.99 AUD, which is around 96 beers. Realizing this now, I'm probably never gonna buy the Stark Salary ever again.

    Well now that gas is cheaper its about 3-4 tanks. Beer wise? About six 30 packs. In my favorite so not the cheapest about mid range flavor. For me a stark salery is something I spend on family. Fishing. A splurge on a nice meal. Rarity. What's necessary, occasional fun. Not this game though. Or any other for that matter. Any Amur Pike in your neighborhood?

    Because you're both using some wacky conversion rates for USD to AUD?

    A Stark Salary that costs USD$100 will cost you ~AUD$137.80 http://www.xe.com/currencyconverter/con ... USD&To=AUD

    Maybe there are different exchange rates on offer between the stores (steam/itunes/google) which could also explain it...

    Stark Salary costs $128.98 here in Singapore, which is approx. $91.70USD.

    You can get 22 double Cheeseburger meals from Mac-D's, 11 movie tickets, about 23x 630Ml bottles of local beer or can pay for my transport to and from work for about 1.2 months.

    There's no wacky conversion, the store shows the price in local currency, AUD129.99. Maybe that poster doesn't know it and is converting that price as though it was USD.

    Well mine says its $99.99 for a Stark Salary and I'm playing 'via' Steam (which is USD), so again, different rates for different platforms, yay!

    Here it's NZD 125, which (according t the ANZ website) is EUR 75, AUD 113, GBP 54, USD 82.

    Both my Steam and Android Stark Salaries are priced in NZD, and have been for months.

    For comparison, unleaded petrol is just under NZD 2 a litre, so you'd get maybe 65 litres for that.

    In Poland it's 379,99PLN (according to today's average exchange rate it's about 95USD), which is 28% of our minimal month payment.
    This is equal to 41 BigMac burgers, ~75l of beer, 88l of petrol, 126 single tickets for public communication or 23 lunches.

    However, it is not enough to buy a square watermelon from Japan at $140. I'm not sure why someone would want a square watermelon but that's how it is.
