50k is fine to start.

Rent: 500.- for 1-2 Rooms
Apartment with furniture 600.-/ 800.-


Food : 250.-
Transport: 60.- (public)
Haircut: 10.-
Party...???

when you earn 50k, no kids ..income taxes will be around 30%..but also you have 
to pay sick- and pension insurance, etc. . So from 50k around 30k will stay in 
your pocket.. which is not bad for 24 year young guy.

Enjoy Berlin..culture is great.
o.k. weather is not like Barcelona..no siesta (8:00 - 17:30 straight work),  no 
outdoor sitting in the sun , running  around in t-shirt etc..at least not from 
now to next May. Can be be fucking cold in Jan - March
Communication can be mostly in english..no need to learn German..in the 
beginning.
Berlin people are a little direct at times but helpful, but there are so many 
foreigners..

Go for it.. Spain is not in a good shape right now...
