You've totaly missed the point, the salary is not to have a good time, it's to assist the guy to live modestly and finish his studies.

Modestly means not eating out too much, no car, public transport, a library ticket and limited hangovers
And my point is that on such salaries I and the other PhD students I know live pretty rocking lives. So above modest. Not sure what MsLysandra is doing esp with such low rent to just scrape by.
