Humility is not what Jante Law is about. Jante Law is about conformity. You definitely don't have to live in Scandinavia to be a humble millionaire or even billionaire. In fact, one could argue that the successful people in Scandinavia are humble because of the fear of the Jante Law.
All I was saying is that people who are successful mostly ignore the Jante Law otherwise they wouldn't try to become successful, to begin with.
None of this is an exact science of course.

- ThomPete 9y agoOk, not sure how that contradicts what I said which was about becoming successful not about how you deal with the law.
