Transcript

Average Netherlands salary. If I made 30 grand in America, I'd kill myself. To be fair, his rent is pretty cheap. I have friends who pay this in one month. One month. Peanuts for utilities and bills as well. Groceries and smoking. All right, buddy. 600 for travel. Where you going? Down the road? And then we got hobbies, 5,000 solid, and saved 6,600 of it. But hey, I guess their overall happiness scores are higher, so who's laughing at the end, right? And you should go make a chart like this here. A lot of you need to.
