I would not say so. In all the neighboring countries of Switzerland, you get more "free" things from the government so you pay for it with higher taxes. So your individual performance and budgeting does not really matter so much. In Switzerland, if you screw up, do not save money etc. things will be less fun than in Germany for example where the government will often bail you out.
That’s funny as my ex lives in Switzerland and I have never seen such a good social support. He got free time from work to go to some kind of mental spa to get mental break from job. Fully paid. By state.
