Dude there is nothing that exists in the US we don't have also. Why do you think houses are so expensive here ? Were does the money magically go ? |
Lolwut? Double glazing hasn't been standard in Europe until the 90's, and triple glazing is unheard of even today. Stop trying to sugar coat things. The more I hear about US housing, the more it really seems that Europeans simply get ripped off at every turn. Oh my, we can withstand an earthquake....in one of the most tectonically stable places in the world (let's ignore greece & turkey). As for hurricanes and tornados, hate to break it to you but they are certainly not common place in Europe, and for the cash you save with a US house, you could easily put a bit aside and take extra precautions where needed.
Simply put there is fuck all that I've come across in this thread that would convince me that european homes are in any way superior. They are small, cramped, prone to damp and dust and generally a bit shit. And that's before looking at the price.

Because you're Europe and almost everything has to be more expensive just because. |
Exactly. For example:
Newegg vs Ebuyer
Bestbuy vs Currys
