As a person who travels (or use to??) yes it is.

Even the best parts of American (I owned a condo in Snowbird) are demonstrable worse than most of Northern Europe.

It is everything from the schools, food and health. America is still a place of personal reinvention but not of social capital. In Norway, every single person is a local currency millionaire. Every man,woman and child has wealth worth over USD 250,000 due to the Oil Fund.

Sweden has more billionaire per capita than America. The main difference is time. Time for life and time culture.

How does a Norwegian cash out their piece of the fund? Can you get a loan and use your fund allocation as collateral?

If not, it's not really their money.
