Europeans what are Europeans poor? Well that's what every American wants to believe. But are they right? Well, there is data and then there's vibes. The data is telling, Europe is stagnating, America's pulling ahead. But now here's the vibes. I've been Euromaxing in France and the UK for the past three weeks. As you can tell from my hair, I've got it all. Europeans definitely have less disposable income than Americans. However, looking at the population, I don't think Europeans are poor at all. First, they look healthy. Clean teeth, healthy skin, they're not limping. And to me, how you look is often an indicator of how wealthy your system is. They might not have the latest iPhone, but they still have the most, relatively newish cars on the road. And here's the thing, our social safety net ensures that those who are less fortunate don't fall too far down. Therefore, everyone from the rich to the poor don't look struggling too much. We've also kept the same standards of living for the last 30 years and they're pretty nice. So no, I don't think we're poor. Here's one, the world is catching up on us, while the US is pulling ahead. Two, our social is just under pressure and might just collapse in the near future. Lastly, don't poor, appear, we also don't appear rich.
