i was in stockholm earlier this year for about a week. i heard housing was pretty cheap?
my only complaint there was the beer. i didn't see anything amber or dark. the liquor store was pretty funny. like a thousand different beers that were pretty much identical. lol. sold in singles.
to the matter of taxes, i'm only taking home around 66% of my rj pay right now. . . in the good ol US of A. would i pay another 5% to have free health care and schooling? need i even answer that? i could own one of those expensive homes if i didn't have a massive student loan.
