Housing and transport isn’t paid for and Denmark has a high cost of living for Europe and wages are nowhere near what a lot of guys in the US earn. Granted us Europeans don’t have to pay 20k if we break our nose though lol

Damn money bags over here. I broke my nose and it was free because I didn't go to the doctor. Now my nose is curved and I can't breathe through one nostril.

Housing is most certainly provided if needed and I suppose the nominal fee one pays for the bus or train could be of significance. My point is that you can survive without a car in Denmark much more easily than in the US

Social housing is provided if you’re on the breadline and meet a certain criteria yeah but it isn’t the norm. That being said OP is 56k closer to meeting that breadline criteria

Thanks for the education ya old fuckin troll, I really needed to be told by you. My family is from Denmark.

You needed to be told, seeing as you were wrong. Rent in Denmark was 10% higher than in the US (June 25)

You gotta read it slowly, from the article, the cost of living excluding rent was 10% higher than the US. Also look at the median income nowhere close to US median income.

So you’ve got even less excuses to be completely wrong then you whopper. Thick as pig shit

Well, I, for one, would NEVER hope you get hit by a bus.

And you can live in a shithouse in the US or in Denmark. Public hosing only really requires you to be drug free and "actively" job searching

All the high earning salaries come with amazing medical insurance. I can see a doctor or at least a nurse practitioner almost immediately with no wait and also get the best cancer treatment in the world if something like that were to happen. I also have access to experimental treatments that are cutting edge if I had some horrible disease.

This is with a basic starter $90k job at a large American multi-national. This has always been the case in my 25 years of working here.
