You're forgetting the student dept almost all students have to get into nowadays. And although credit cards are not as common for household expenses, a lot of retailers offer loans to buy appliances and such. I'm curious as how much people actually use these kind of constructs.
- Leherenn 6y agoIs student debt really in thing in mainland Europe? Certainly some people need to borrow money to cover costs of living, but tuition is very low (from free to a couple thousands a year) in most places I know about.
- Cederfjard 6y agoYou said it, cost of living ain’t free. My experience from Sweden is that few people work alongside studies, and even fewer have expenses paid for by well-off parents. Maybe if you’re from the city where you study you stay living and eating at home, but otherwise it’s very common to take out a (fairly cheap) student loan from the Swedish Board of Student Finance to cover your expenses.
