Well the key thing is , they have the money to do it. They make more money there than most of us here. They also work less hours per year, go figure. Now watch how some owner of a company is going to preach about we are more productive or some nonsense that means nothing if you who doing the work not making the real bread.
Boy, the Euro's need to kick in here.
I've just put petrol in the car... $2 per liter!
Just paid 230 NOK (about $33) for two SMALL steaks in the supermarket.
Plus other numbers that you guys can't believe (but will start gettin' used to over the coming years... all apart of the great global plan).
Welcome to Norway, the most expensive country on earth.
Europe is in a MAJOR economic crisis, indentical to the US.
Suicide rates are sky rocketing in some of the southern countries... Some people even selling/giving their children away.
it's just dreadful... and I guess, only going to get worse.
Sure, some of these countries have had working weeks/retierment age far lower than in the US... but believe me, they live VERY simple/humble lives. It's the Med lifestyle.
Main stream Euro's live a life style far reduced from the US, believe me.
They just spend what money they have left after paying the bills, feeding the kids. differently.
At these show, you're seeing the RC maniacs... the guys that'll spend what ever it takes, normally meaning no holidays for the family, no expensive treats what so ever, so they can feed their (some would say selfish) hobby.
Would I spend X $ on a Moki... or should I spend it on my families house, life style, etc.
That's easy for me to answer.
