It's a hole here, no matter if you're in Prague which is somehow cosmopolitan, taxes are killing you, services don't work, gas, real estate, accessories, cars, ISP services are extremely expensive. People can't have fun, most of them are mediocre ignorant assholes suffering from the post socialistic be like the others syndroma, only girls here are cute and fun.
I can find more interesting ways how to spend money, than to give it to idiots, who are playing with the sheep mentality here and overprice everything.
I save about 30 pct. of my monthly fixed costs if I live in US (talking rent, gas, ISP etc.), plus much less hassle with everything, as services do work and you can relax in your free time, people are more open and easier to deal with.
I feel like a renegade, a rebel, and I know I just behave openly and with candor - something that's not in vogue here.
I'll be glad to come to Europe to see the "culture", but I'm sick of living here, as for other places
The only place I could live is Germany, as I wouldn't have issues with the language and I like the German mentality, sense of duty etc. - but look what they did with Germany - immigration, taxation, all kinds of bullshit - great place to stay but not a good place to do business.
Then I love Scandinavia, I was in Denmark, Sweden and Norway, and would prefer Denmark or Norway but then again - nice places but taxation to death and everything super expensive, I'll rather spend there holidays.
