  "account": "Young professionals, dubbed \"milquini\" and the new millionaires of the 2026 economy, have one rule that matters: \"Life is reduced to a minimum.\" Carolina Alguacil's letter to a director, sent on August 21, 2005, coined the term \"mileurista,\" a label describing a group struggling to have a full life with such a salary. This message might now be signed by hundreds of thousands of young individuals – though not quite so young anymore. The only change would be the numeric origin of the concept, inflated by 60% over the past 20 years, making them \"milquinientoseuristas\" or their more photogenic variant \"milquini\" on social media. In 2024, the median salary – the most illustrative because unlike the average, which mixes very high and very low figures, this indicator splits the income distribution, placing the threshold with half below and half above – stood at 2,001.4 euros, translating to between 1,500-1,600 euros net monthly, depending on the tax retention rate.",
  "summary": "Un salario neto de 1.500 euros equivale hoy al poder de compra que tenían los 1.000 euros hace 20 años. Quienes perciben esta renta relatan dificultades para llegar a fin de mes",
