Norway is the country that has managed the best through the financial crisis and the low interest rates have allowed a better individual economy and purchasing power. They have also loosened the strict rules on imports and tolls slightly as of late, which has helped a great deal as well.

Its because of oil

Well, it's also down to some fairly frugal politics; which shows in municipal economy and infrastructure. The oil in and on itself doesn't really make the average citizen richer, it helps provide cheaper and better services (in some cases) but it fills the state coffers first and foremost.
