What Broke Sweden? Real Estate Bust Exposes Big Divide

My income is higher than the average income in any post-code in Sweden (as far as I can tell).

So the problem is not "income". It's other sorts of privilegies I don't have.

For example "time in the real estate market pre 2010".

Income != Wealth

also the higher brackets of salary in Sweden are not even high for European standards. They are in fact quite low

As a software engineer (consultant/contractor), you can easily make 80k USD post tax in Sweden. That’s not too bad.
