I'm doing multiple Pubski-driftings here. Just to keep the current pub top-of-feed.

Not much comment on the lower pay portion of yet - but assuming there's the already lower pay elsewhere, would that mean a significant amount less would be unlivable?

Regarding healthcare, it would require saving up for the event of less pay... but I recommend reviewing 'travel insurance' as potentially interim health insurance.

Lower pay -- Highly Skilled Migrants over 30: 4840 Euro/month gross pay; under 30: 3549 Euro/month gross pay; Reduced per visa: 2543 Euro/month pay. It's a pretty significant drop and while it makes finding a job easier, it makes affording to live a lot harder. -- https://ind.nl/en/required-amounts-income-requirements

As far as healthcare, I'm not sure if travel insurance would work since I'd be moving with a residency visa and not travelling for leisure. I'm sure they would fight it on those grounds. Not sure what other pitfalls may be as I haven't looked into it.

CLEARLY didn't eat my wheaties that morning. That's a simple google-search fact check...

Will keep an eye out for something similar none-the-less if you haven't found something already as a possible route to insured healthcare.
