So growing up, I had this idea that the American dream was about that if you put in an honest amount of work, you would be rewarded with a good life. This would mean you would be able to take care of yourself and your family, afford a car and a house. In my view, working one job would probably be enough.
Nowadays, I get the idea that the American dream has become about working your ass off in order to have a chance to become a millionaire. Somehow glorifying “the grind” appears to be a part of it too now.
Sweden used to be fantastic but its not anymore. Too much crime and immigration issues. And incompetent / evil government, they have like 12% inflation.
I think Norway is the best place now.
Sure, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Iceland are all great.
Sweden still has a very low crime rate compared to the US. Not even comparable. Also have extensive social services available to everyone that Americans can only dream of.
Yeah I dont even compare to the US - I think they are in their own class of worst.
But a comparison with other european countries can be made easier.
