You mean why would he move from one very very rich country to another very very rich country, only wth more functional judicial, educational and social systems? Hm... That's a real mystery... In all seriousness, I'm set to move to Sweden in 2 years. It's like Denmark, but easier language.

Rich in terms of what exactly?

Um... money? Average slary? GDP? Standard of living? Take your pick.

Well... Using PPP GDP I see that Russia is in top 5 for 2014... And Sweden is faaar behind and Denmark is even lower.

And even on GDP without PPP methods, Russia is 10th, Sweden - 20th and Denmark is between Thailand and Malaysia.

If you think GDP is best method to get the best country then you should move to China, man.

And if you speak about avg salary you shouldn't forget that the prices level and costs structure is very different over the world. 
For example today in SPb benzin price is around 36 rub for 1 liter. And its rouhly 0.47 Euro/0.59 USD. 
So you can't just compare numbers, you should consider other things too...
