I'd be happy with average if average in America meant I could afford healthcare, a mediocre home, and a mediocre car. I almost make the average salary in my city (after 2 STEM degrees) and I can't afford 2/3 of the things I just listed and I'm almost 30.

Most people, not me, would also want to be able to afford a family/children.

This is what average-wage people can get in Scandinavia.
