Define the good life.

Being able to make something of myself through hard work and

Gee, I have a few friends in Norway (I only know about six Norwegians)
who love their jobs and their lifestyle, and got to where they are by
hard work and dedication in a field they chose. There's nothing
particularly "country-centric" about your "good life."

Then again, some people are satisfied with the meager earnings of a
common laborer, and are quite happy living in a one room flat, with
such "luxuries" as running a href="http://www.serverlogic3.com/lm/rtl3.asp?si=1&k=hot%20water" onmouseover="window.status='hot water'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;"hot water/a.

So I guess once again, it's all relative.

My guess is that my Norwegian buddies do better than you do.

That depends on your definition of "better"......


It would probably be the opposite of all the propoganda you've heard and adhered to.
