And the average Pole owns 2x more housing than the average German (number I made up for exemplification) who's most likely gonna be a rentoid for life.
From what I noticed Poland (and Czechia) are still an attractive place for skilled migration from the EU working in the service sectors, as the constant growth and low-ish taxes and CoL, make it a better place for building wealth and buying housing than Germany.
On the other hand, Germany is a better palce if you're on minimum wage unskilled style jobs and/or will depend on state support to live, as the German state is quite generous with the poor.
My point is they're both attractive, just for different demographics.
- simbolit 3y agoSo rich people should move to Poland, poor people to Germany? (offer valid for eu citizens only, terms and conditions may apply.)
- FirmwareBurner 3y agoRich people have it good everywhere, they probably don't move to Poland to enjoy their wealth but more like Monaco, Switzerland, Mallorca, Miami, Malibu, etc. What I was talking about was skilled workers in the service sectors (IT, etc), which are definitely not rich, but 100% working class. Like it or not, most wealthless working class people want to build wealth, especially with the ever increasing wealth inequality that no government wants to tackle, and some countries are better than others for that purpose and for different workers/professions, so it's normal that people will go where that proces is easier depending on their profession. Some countries have very generous social nets at the expense of high taxes and low growth, making wealth building impossible for the wealthless newcomers, other countries have low safety nets but low taxes and better growth opportunities for the skilled and ambitious workers who are into buildings wealth. Different strokes for different folks.
