The educated are paid way more in the US. Americans buy houses and stuff. Unimaginable for most Europeans who don’t get to inherit one.
Also Europe is on the decline. Due to terrible demographics mostly.
Buying a house in a soulless suburb and living on the driver’s seat of a car staring at nothing but other cars and concrete? No, thanks. I believe in the inherent superiority of urbanity.
Not everyone wants to live in a dystopian country.
Yes you earn more but everything is also more expensive and things like decent public transport and not to see misery everyday are also nice
You’re being downvoted, but the salary argument is completely true.
I did some calculations before when I was talking to my friend. I live in the U.S now. I’m Romanian. If I were to move back to Romania I’d be taking something like a 70% salary cut. If I were to move somewhere Americans are more familiar with like the Netherlands, I would be taking something like a 40% salary cut.
You guys in here are patting each other on the back, but I’ve talked to some miserable engineers from Europe who feel like they have no way out. They are making a pittance what their peers are making elsewhere.
Honey what, you seen the housing market recently?? Fuck I’d trip and break my arm and get the Honor of being a slave to the system for the rest of my life

I’ve got bad news for you. The median income-housing ratio is going down on both sides of the pond.
Agree with the rest though.

“Terrible demographics” will ensure bigger inheritances to Europeans…
