- hollerith 5y agoMaybe you are both right: maybe the US is more expensive if you plan to live off savings, but the UK is more expensive (in units of labor) for the average worker because the average pay is lower. In other words, almost all statistics on cost of living do not take into account differences between countries in the ease of getting money.
