Advantages of living in Europe

[westwall]

1.Ever since I moved to Switzerland, I am living more like an American, than I ever have, in America in 27 years time.

2. The things I depended on in the USA, like my car, isn't needed.
So cars are a lot less expensive, because they have to actually SELL me a product.
This means it has to be excellent quality at a low price.

12 grand, buys me a Chevrolet that is made here of European parts, of much better quality than a Chevrolet in the USA.

An inferior Chevrolet in the USA in both technology and quality would cost me $30,000

Garbage that is made in Mexico of a mish mash of parts for $30,000 would never make the cut.

3. I live in the suburbs here because I can afford it, but here in Europe I can live in the city, and I have no problems, I have absolutely nobody out there wanting to take away from me, what I have, because we actually have.

4. I noticed the average European household has twice to three times as much stuff like Electronics, Clothing, Furniture, etc than what the Average is in the USA.

5. Sure, the USA is well known for having packed refrigerators and cabinets, but the exact same, of slightly different food, and the same basic ingredients are here as well.
and you know what ?
Much of what the USA has, is also found here except for the absolute Americanisms from Philadelphia and New York, etc.

Switzerland is one of the most expensive places on the planet to live. A 90 square meter apartment on the isle St. Louis in Paris is over a million Euro's...... we know, it's right next door to my wife's apartment....

In other words, you're full of it....

It seems that you are even more full of it as Switzerland has never been in Paris, FRANCE it is a completely separate country. It would be like saying that Washington is a suburb of Ottawa.

My point was that Paris is incredibly expensive and Switzerland is EVEN MORE SO! Wow, you silly people are all alike, a complete lack of reading comprehension and critical thinking capability.

I'm fairly sure that young Westwall is using Isle St. Louis as a reference point, and is well aware of it not being within Switzerland. That's how I read it, anyway.

But why would he do that, since the OP is about Switzerland?

It would be like me talking about real estate in Denver, and someone posting that real estate is sky-high in Beverly Hills.

Demonstrating my point about you silly people, and your inability to think critically. Thank you.

Great. If you're so happy there, you should stay there.

One advantage of living in Europe is that there's always the US to bail you out when another country comes and kicks your fucking ass.

Would've been interesting though if Hitler had attacked Switzerland...Switzerland was well armed, and well prepared.

Why would hitler attack the country where he was keeping his gold?

So, how do you get Switzerland to let you immigrate?

Never been outside the US. Well, Hawaii (look it up hehe.) But my Mom did a European 2nd honeymoon and raved about it. Though all that stuck out to me was "porn on regular tv" in France.

If you're good with foreign languages, getting out in the world's a nice idea. Without comparison and contrast, you can't really say your home country's superior to anywhere else. Only thing keeping me here right now is family. Mom isn't interested in Aliyah to Israel, and I wouldn't be happy leaving her behind. But eventually I'll go...Hopefully not for a good long while.

This is very true. It really opens your eyes when you actually experience different nations and the people that live in them.

So many here talk about the rest of the world without ever actually seeing anything past the borders of their own state.

From Ireland to Romania and from Latvia to Spain Europe contains man different cultures, languages, laws, climates and standards of living. To try and encompass all of them in to just one label of "Europe" in order to try and troll people from the USA, itself a country with a miriad of states with their own unique selling points is really kinda dumb.

This thread really should be in the trolling forum.

Yep...I have watched those "House Hunter" real estate shows, and I specifically remember a few that were in Switzerland. DAYYYUMMM!!
$1500 a month for a tiny hole in the wall with no kitchen, no laundry a pull down bed in an apartment building that looked like a concrete bunker.

Ha-haaaa! Regretfully, I have noticed that we Americans do have more of an obsession with correcting everything and all at the dentist.

Really? You know, I can’t recall meeting a German that was toothless. Then again, we really didn’t travel to the really ‘backwoods’ places in Europe but in general I think you would find many more ‘toothless’ in a trailer park in Alabama.
