Wow that's spendy! Europeans sure get the shaft when it comes to prices of things.

I hope you guys make more money than the rest of the world to make up for it.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(PPP)_per_capita

Wow most European countries are below the US...


Yep, exactly. You lucky Americans tend to make 12,000 more international dollars a year than us Brits.... and I don't think PPP factors in tax rates, so a higher percentage of our money also gets taken away.



Not that easy. First the fact that the US has A few super rich Billionaires (400 guys are richer then the first half of USA combined) Meaning 400 people have more money then 150 Million Americans together!

Makes this capita thing relative also the International Dollar = 1 Dollar and the calculations how much an International Dollar is for every country depends on complex calculations and in the end the result is debatable. Those listings have no real value what so ever without the 400 richest americans the USA would plumet to the upper middle of the list. Or does every american get 47000 a year. from babies to 90 year olds everyone makes 47000 ? Those lists are worthless and I cant say anything with this figure except that the USA makes a ton of money only thing is who actually has the money ?

How the wealth is spread over the inhabitants thats important. I dont think Europeans have much too moan about when it comes to prices my experience says americans are either drowning in money or have a poor lifestandard. I mean 3 fucking jobs just to live a regular life wtf ? I would shoot myself

To OP bad offer 300 Bucks more and you get a 50 inch Panasonic 3D.
