Is my husband making enough money? by Kristal Mays

My husband has been in Kazakhstan for 5 months. He is making 125,000 dollars a year. He is a mining engineer. Is his salary comparable to others living abroad? I think he should be paid more. What do any of you think? Thanks, Kristal

Kristal Mays
