That's not a problem if you have money.
- hans1729 4y agoIf you don't want kids. If you do, it's always a factor. Do you want your kids to grow up in a stable culture, or in a declining one? Surrounded by polarization, extremes of all kinds, instability? I consider moving to the US for a couple of years for the money, but the second that kids are on the horizon, I would book a plane ticket to Europe.
- jules 4y agoI get that you may want to move here if you want to have kids, but isn't Europe declining at least as fast as the US?
- grey-area 4y agoNo
- mensetmanusman 4y agoEuropean fertility levels are lower than the US, so they are declining faster.
- heavyset_go 4y agoFertility rates are not the only factor in a declining society.
- jacquesm 4y agoFor that purpose 'having money' is not the kind of money that a typical immigrant from Europe will bring with them, especially not if they still have to work for a living.
- heavyset_go 4y agoDepends what you mean by "have money". Plenty of small business owners with a few million dollars in savings and assets have had to liquidate them to pay for healthcare for themselves or their family members. It can cost over $1 million to survive a heart attack in the US, and the disability of oneself or family members can easily cost millions of dollars in healthcare expenses over a lifetime.
