World's Most Expensive Cities
If your boss wants to
transfer you to Moscow this year, he'd better offer you a fair sum
to do so - or even a downright handsome one depending on where you
live now. That's because Moscow has just been designated the world's
most expensive city for the second year in a row by Mercer Human
Resource Consulting.
A luxury two-bedroom in Moscow now rents for
$4,000 a month; a CD costs $24.83, and an international newspaper,
$6.30, according to Mercer. By comparison, a fast food meal with a
burger is a steal at $4.80.
