- nickpp 2y agoYou can look closer, if you want. The EU is cheaper and cheaper for the American tourists. And please make sure to visit some of the Eastern European countries, like Romania or Bulgaria too. They are part of the EU as well.
- matwood 2y agoAs has I’ve heard said, the best place to make money is the US and the best place to spend money is the EU. If you believe this is the case as I do, the next step is to figure out how to lifestyle arbitrage. Make US wages while living in the EU. I’m older with bit more freedom than when I just started out, but this is exactly what I’m doing. My plan is to eventually quasi retire to the house I’m currently renovating.
- rootusrootus 2y agoI love living in the US and visiting the EU. For me, that seems to be the very best arrangement. Early on, I was infatuated with the perceived better quality of life in the EU, but I see now that I could not easily create something comparable to what I enjoy in the US unless I was an elite member of EU society. My guess is that this is true for the majority of US residents on HN.
