tbf Atlanta can be really nice if you're not living in or near the city itself. If you're okay with a 30 minute commute to work you could find a suburb full of houses like this.

Crime was a lot higher in America in the 90s. They were a lot lower than the 70s/80s, but still I don't blame you dad for wanting to stay in Sweden given the circumstances.

I mean a PhD still earns shitton more
but just because you literally dont want as much a month as he does in a year doesnt mean its shit

But the 90s was an economic boomtime

I would have bit in an instant

>the muh crime meme

Quite easily avoidable, it only occurs in containment zones

>>53292210
No it's shit I want to stand out. Men truly feel alive when they put themselves above other men. I can't do that in Sweden.
>>
>>53291900
It's the same in the Netherlands as well. It doesn't matter if you have studied all your life or plumb toilets, everyone earns the same. It's basically communism without a dictator.

You should move to America. You have the right attitude.

Why are you so salty? If you value equality over achievement you can stay where you are. America is for people who want to work hard and achieve greatness.

I want to but it's hard and not really plausible because of the vastly different educational and business systems.

>>53292542
Hey fuck you. This is the typical Swedish "jantelagen" which I assume exists in Finland aswell because let's face it, you're a copy of us. You shouldn't try to stand out or consider yourself good at anything, just be a mediocre zombie living your life serving the big socialdemocratic party. Fuck that.

Janteloven is alright as long as it doesnt harm individuality
But you make it sound like you want to be succesful because you want to raise yourself above others and not for the sake of improving yourself

My mother got offered an opportunity to move to the US for job relocation but turned it down since my sister was just about to enter high school and I was 10 so.

I was a young kid when I visited but I remember visiting family friends in the suburbs and spending time downtown and looking back it was actually pretty nice. It has a lot of black people but it's so fuckhuge that it doesn't really matter.
