Citizen's benefit recipient Pascal from the RTL Zwei show “Hartz und cordial” wants to become a TikTok star. Pascal is currently expecting around 1,000 to 1,200 euros per month "minus deductions, with taxes, with everything else".
That's significantly more than he would have earned in his job as a newspaper delivery person. Pascal currently lives with his mother and sister in the Benz barracks in the Mannheim-Waldorf district. The barracks were once intended for homeless people and welfare recipients.
