Have to say that this discussion does not concern poor people. But it makes me wonder should I move to US? I don?t like it as much as some other places, but for us, car crazy people, it is heaven!

My neighbour just bought the 645 Ci, Black with all equipment... You have to be a milionaire to get one of those... his car was number 11 sold in Denmark.... trust me, BMW is not for normal people in Denmark. 11 5series sold in May... and we are 5 million living in Denmark...

You'd also be earning a USA salary, working US hours, having US vacations, paying for medical insurance, etc. etc. Perhaps the average earnings of a given profession should be posted for comparison too...

I work in us based company and have been working with my us collegues. Higher sallary (150% at least), lower tax, better allowances... But maybe more loans from study time, more poor social services (pay Your self)... Young and beatiful would not care anything else except money and glamour. US, more possibilities to get rich, but more poor people than most western countries, bigger gap between poor and rich. If You trust your self and You are strong go to us florish. If You think that You will grow old choose something else.

Biggest market too, but how long before China and India goes ahead?

At the moment it is carfreaks heaven..

exactly, the data is pretty interesting but useless for comparissons. It's like comparing apples to oranges. I would probably be making more money if i lived in the USA doing what i do here, but all the expenses would certainly be higher.
