I am so happy to discover your videos. I live in Central Florida. You are right, doctors in the US are expensive. Finland is my favorite country. Visited your wonderful country two times in the past. Love it, just love it. People are not too inside themselves as I heard prior to visiting Finland. Here in the US people also like their space. One nice lady in Helsinki helped me to upload an app on my phone while I was waiting for my bus, so I could easily see what time my bus arrives. An amazingly kind bus driver made sure I did not miss my stop. Sales personnel was so extremely helpful. I hope to go there again soon. :)

The happiness index is more a reflection of security and stability than actual emotional happiness so those who go ‘but everyone seems so miserable’ don’t really understand the methodology behind the study. As for the politics; I think the recent proposed changes to immigration and employment rules will probably mean that that security and stability is for Finns (or at best Europeans) only. It’s quite sad really as Finland was building a great reputation as a place for skilled foreign professionals to move to. That said, great video as ever!

11:17 A huge problem here in the US is that people tend to see wealth less as a means of improving one's quality of life, but as a way of "keeping score" in a game of one upmanship. It's show over substance. This also tends to lead to less of a tendency to work for a more equitable society. If people below your income level are doing better, then you look "less successful" in comparison.

It wasn't a horrible place to live in their time, but there was something alluring about moving to America at that time.

There was terrible starvation from time to time over the centuries. Finnish Americans (including their US descendants) are significantly more wealthy than than their cousins in Finland. That applies to other Nordic Americans, as well.

@@crystalwebster2005 Because in the US, both corporations and the government value profit over human life so there are no regulations preventing extreme prices on life saving medicine. Most of what makes the US the richest country is owned by a very small percentage of the population. Finland along with most other western European countries have regulations to significantly reduce the occurrence of these issues or at least the effects on the average person caused by these issues, and while not perfect, they are vastly superior to what the US has. In the US, taxes go towards military spending so the government can profit even more by stealing resources and/or taking advantage of instability and often times causing or at least assisting in this instability in various countries over the years (Read Killing Hope by William Blum for very detailed accounts of US interventions after World War II). Barely any tax revenue in comparison is spent on education, healthcare, etc., things that help people, because they are unprofitable.

I think Finns are just happier based on their down to earth outlook on life. It’s not like Finns have had it easy down through the centuries, with different nations attempting to oppress them. But somehow they have understood a bigger meaning in life hard work and sometimes suffering. In spite of the natural social distancing, Finns tend to understand everyone needs each other and so their social responsibility is high.

I believe that Finland is the happiest country is pretty misleading . The thing is the criteria that made Finland " the happiest " doesn't really include peoples mental state .

@VampiraVonGhoulscout Год назад

I think it's probably less about being "happy" and more about being "content" because of the social security system. But also because of sisu and lack of willingness to complain. So it's a tough one to really figure out how happy Finns actually are. Definitely happier than the UK though. It is awful here.

I moved to Finland from Romania 6 months ago. Here are my findings so far: all the positive facts in the video are kept vague. Had a muscle tear, medical treatment was painkillers and got sent home. Had to use my private health care for any investigation as the “public system is very slow” -doctor words. At work, everyone is fake and lauches shitty rumours. Have not seen so much hidden drama anywhere in Europe. After quitting, people turn 180 and become very toxic. But overall, if you keep your head down, are very cautious with what you say, you will benefit from all the great systems this country made. If you want to be open and give honest feedback, you might struggle

I am sorry but Finland is not comparable to the US. To be a fact you would have to compare Europe. Finland is small compared to the US and the fact Finland works is also thanks to Eastern Europe doing the factories and trading with different products. The US is much bigger and is a society that could be or almost be independent itself to the rest of the world.

@johnbattle7518 8 месяцев назад

This is typically of Europeans. They tend to use small comparisons when they want to say their better in some areas, then large comparisons when they want to point out the US is worse. It's also important to nor Finland not to have Mexico and the rest of Central America at its border like the US. Look at their surroundings countries and compare.

@jijitters Год назад

I'm curious to know if Finnish people know much about Minnesota. Of all the US states, Minnesota is where the most Finnish immigrants and their descendants live, and it shows in our culture. The weather and climate here is very similar to Finland, and even our population size is about the same, as well as our nickname! (Land of 1000 Lakes vs Land of 10000 Lakes) Minnesota is the state considered to be the hub for all Nordic immigrants as we also have the most Norwegian and Swedish descendants. A lot of Finnish behaviors and preferences shown in your videos often resonate with me as a Finnish American. I often wish I could move to Finland, but unfortunately it seems modern immigration is nearly impossible.

As an American, very accurate comparison. I emphasize the points about work/life balance and comparison. It's very deep in our society to compare to how well others are doing financially. Every time I need to visit the doctor, I cry. 😅 Not only is the healthcare in my state rather low in quality (especially towards women), but as you mentioned, the costs are outrageous. I can't afford it, and often go without important care. Its also worth mentioning that the US has the highest maternal mortality rate among developed countries. Our healthcare system is f****d

I am guessing that most Finns, if they are treated like crap in their jobs or if they can't find a job or their government takes away their rights, they will blame their bosses, the economy, or their government instead of blaming the victim. Will Finns tell a job seeker "You must have picked some girly philosophy major in University" or "You must have been a shitty worker if your boss mistreated you."? Will Finns get fired if they try to unionize? Union Busting is a huge industry in USA. Recently, the US Supreme court struck down President Biden's proposal to forgive some student loan debt. The attitude I saw a lot on social media was that the students need to be punished for their debt. I am not sure Finns make the Just World Fallacy as much as Americans do.

Not really. Men treat their women like equals - not queens. It often means that romantic gestures are few and far between. You are expected to bring in half the income and do half of all work. But your views and opinions are respected and you can expect to make all big decisions together. Your husband likely carries equal responsibility for all domestic matters and care for children. I most definitely prefer it this way and really don’t need to get flowers that often or doors opened for me. Then again, I am also a Finn. 😂

So, equal can also mean if he's abusive the female needs to be abusive right along with him. I'm a strict being, that doesn't mean I will find my king in Finland. It's just mean I'm willing to search the world, heavens and earth for that special one whose worth my love/time. Then again, I really don't deal with humans on a personal level. I'm in love with peace. So, it's actually safe for me to stay away from humans that values hatred, greed, lust, and many other unpleasant actions. It's only a few good beings in the world. If I find my match, it's pure bliss from there, or I can just make myself stay in bliss by staying solo. I am a spiritual being having a physical experience, so humans are not on my go to list. Stay who you are, I love when humans reveal themselves. 😌

What? Americans invented cars? BS. Carl Bentz. And the engines Nicolas van Otto and Rudolf Diesel. All German. US had the first production line automobile. T-Ford.

@AleksiHimself Год назад

That was an oopsie. I meant to say that America made cars mainstream thanks to the production line.

"for great". Just because the school system failed you doesn't mean it failed everyone

Look at your thumbnail. The Finn is unencumbered by clothing and is holding birch twigs. How is that not a recipe for happiness?
