I mean yeah but some of them are also unfathomably wealthy afaik, like the nobility and Landed Gentry. Like someone owns all those castles and country estates right. Imagine the decadence and outright bizarre rituals that go on in these places today.

I guess you’re right but it’s just crazy that they legit can’t afford Games. Like economically they’re like an undergrad student or something. Like “I may or may not be able to Afford to have a Car or a Game Console.”

Dood they have free healthcare and can take like 3 months off for vacations to stay at crappy hostels bc it’s all they can afford. Also they have trains everywhere

The difference isnt what people make it out to be. If you have a job in the US you get like 30 days off a year. Many people just take thanksgiving and Christmas week off and don’t go anywhere or just visit family imo. I know some people people are Afraid to take a vacation. Same people go on the internet and are like “I do No Work 😏 “
Also unless you want to go to Vegas or a national park there’s no tourist destination in the US imo. So you have to travelshrew just to use vacation time the way a europoor would.

One thing that people often ignore is that many Americans would be just as poor if they didn’t have access to credit. The dumbest apes in the US can LARP as Middle Class for years as long as they are able to open a Discover card.

A lot of people say this but idk if the math works. A few maxed out credit cards let you spend an Extra $30k. Cumulatively. Like for any amount of time. Not in 1 year. So you can’t really do this consistently for years and years.
HELOCs, then you’re talking.
Like yeah this covers Consoles and trinkets and stuff but not House and $80,000k truck.

Btw euros appear to have access to credit. And I’m just talking about avg Incomes and shit btw. EU is just expensive rent, expensive Consoles, 3000k EU/month if you ace OCI.

Ur showing ur ass in this thread. "Landed gentry" and "access to credit"? Thousands of "country estates" in Europe are available for $1 pound/euro because nobody can afford to pay taxes and maintain them. Occasionally there's some 8th generation baron in a country estate and they have sold off most of the surrounding land and rent out the estate for events (ghastly), and meanwhile you can't flush toilet paper for some reason.
And they have credit cards in Europe too. But those American poors with $30,000k of cc debt make $70,000k/year and drive big new trucks and have houses, while in Europe the guy making $70,000k euros is an investment banker with a washing machine in his linoleum kitchen and a 75hp manual transmission car parked on the street outside his 30sq meter flat.

I made it this long. 79-99% through my Lifespan. why do people talk about Healthcare so much? Im one of them. I feel pressured to irl in Liberak circles.

Ok I have bad genetics too. I bet it’s impossible for me to get jacked. Redditors have a tendency to randomly have cancer though. It’s ghastly. They mention it randomly in passing and another Redditor is like “me too”

You still use toilet paper with bidets. And it's objectively true that it's TTT to not be able to flush it. I also think it's embarrassing not to be able to drink tap water, but even in safe countries it seems like a lot of people buy their water

What the fuck are you talking about? Tap water is highly regulated in the EU and is 100% potable everywhere, meanwhile 10% of the US is on well water that isn't safe to drink and there are also Flint Michigan type debacles.

the tap water thing is silly, in AUS i had to use hotel bathroom tap to get water, just imagine all the doods who have jacked off into that sink. its ghastly. i dont care if the "government" says water is "clean" wtf do u trust the govt but secondly how do u know ur building has clean pipes and shit? its retarded drinking from the tap and most amerishits use filters and stuff unless they ghetto niggas

This guy went to Greek islands or something and thinks all of Europe doesn’t have good tap water. Tap water where I am is 180 and doesn’t taste like chlorine

The need for whataboutism is embarrassing. I didn't weigh in on the actual need to do it, but it is objectively true that a ton of motherfuckers in places with "safe" water go to the trouble of buying bottled water for drinking. If you have a problem, take it up with them

Incomes are low but I’d much rather make like 60k in Europe than 100k in the US. You don’t need much to enjoy otherwise amazing cities and travel options and common spaces you can actually use, and booze is cheap and same with groceries so you can still drink decent wine and food, and work culture is lol so you can just enjoy time off. Meanwhile in the US groceries are $$$$, rent is crazy and goes up every year, nickel and dimed to death everywhere, homeless and criminals have taken over every public space, and everyone is worried about being laid off and worried about taking vacation. So it’s much better in euro for the average person.

in furking andorra they sell cartoons of red wine for 1.50 euros, my luggage was actually too heavy to morocco i just threw it away but i didnt care it was so cheap, its cheaper than water i think. beer also for like .50 euro cents, its abt the only cheap thing in western euro ljl liqour
Date: June 9th, 2026 10:14 AM Author: cobalt forum
the "average person" actually wants to be able to have and raise a family and doesn't judge qol by the price of booze. also $100K is like an entry level salary now

not a lawyer. being a single 50 year old who still rents and his biggest expense is alcohol sounds depressing as fuck even compared to the constant bullshit you deal with as a parent
you just willfully ignored the rest of his post complaining about shit that is 100% relevant to families to hone in on the one part you could interpret "LOL MANSHREW!".
nothing except grocery prices in that post are relevant to families.
Euros taking all this vacation they supposedly take all the time doesn't work with a family because you're too poor to actually do anything nice or fun. and it's bullshit flame that most Americans live in fear of being laid off and don't ever take vacations.
Date: June 9th, 2026 1:33 PM Author: Comical black pozpig sneaky criminal
Common spaces that are family friendly, enjoyable and safe, time off work, job security, affordable quality of life - def something families don’t care about
I suppose euros save on groceries because the shitty apartments they are forced to live in have those college dorm size fridges so they end up buying less food.
agree it's lol. Parks in American burbs are orders of magnitude nicer, cleaner, less crowded, and you don't have to worry about some muslim trying to stab you so he can rape your daughter. Europe really really sucks shit and they have themselves to blame for it.
