There are some European countries with worse mobility than US, but the top countries on most indices I've seen are mostly European, and the US is a ways down.

- edgyquant 3y agoI see the study posted above but I seriously doubt this and think there’s some statistical nuance being lost here. Looking at a list of the worlds richest people outside of the US most of it is entirely inter generational while the US citizens shot from middle class to billionaires thanks to tech and what not. The income disparity alone means it’s gonna be hard to argue against US citizens having a better chance at building wealth than Europeans and median/average wealth in the US vs the biggest European countries confirms this.
