[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ha,  it's so funny that Americans constantly think Europe is some kind of utopia and they always say they'll move there......until they they learn salaries are extraordinarily lower.  UK is known for trash wages.  Not many households at all approach $100K USD. If I were moving to UK, I'd imagine a 50% paycut or more, plus way higher taxes.[/quote]

OK so the problem is if you were American you may have student loans and you don’t have free healthcare and your children won’t have cheap or free college because you aren’t actually European. The people who are European and living in Europe have these things. The Americans there as expats for a few years won’t. [/quote]

Free healthcare and education are not rationed by nationality. If you live in the UK you get them. The NHS doesn’t even have a mechanism for billing you! And university is no longer free but if you meet the residency requirements you get the same rate as everyone who lives in the UK.[/quote]
