      Really doesn’t feel that way. For example in the US real estate and services cost similarly as in Finland, while salaries are much higher.

      Probably the same as with the happiness report: you don’t believe it until you start looking at others and realise how miserable *they* are.

      who actually makes 6,3k.. Like 2%? prolly most in the capital.
      after taxes its like 4k. Most of us mortals are getting 2-3k

      That’s gross wage, not net. So before taxes and such. It’d be interesting to see the same graph for net, as we have rather high taxes here.

      Having lived in both NA and in Finland, I do not believe this for a second.

      Really? Sometines I feel poor when I watch American redditors flexing with their stuff. They earn like six figures from basic engineering job

      Isn’t it just because rent prices are low? I’m in Berlin now and I just bought a near identical grocery basket as I do in Finland and it was about 60% of the cost
      They pay more than double rent prices compared to Helsinki
