I voted you up, but that's kind of like saying you'd lend money to Bill Gates. There's no point in it. The question in lending, apparently, is who can you lend money to that is at the intersection of really needing it and really likely to repay it. Norway would just pay you back immediately, thus making your lending pointless. And if we're actually talking about lending them an amount that they'd need, like, say, a trillion dollars, I'm not sure that I'd bet long term on the Norwegian economy at that scale.
