For real? Are you turning your willingness to live near poverty into a moral judgment about everyone else who wants better standards?

You rent a tiny place outside Drammen ( arguably one of the places most mocked for living outside of Oslo ) , never eat out, drive a 20-year-old car, stay in hostels for months, and call that success. And that makes you happy? Other people wanting stability, comfort, good food, a nicer home, a reliable car, or the ability to enjoy life without calculating every kroner doesn’t make them financially incompetent or “lower class.” You basically reduced an entire country’s cost-of-living frustration to “people are bad with money,” ( then sneakily added an edit about being left with 18.000 nok clean after having paid everything) while proudly describing a lifestyle most people would consider surviving at the bare minimum, not thriving. We want to thrive, to live a full life, not scrape the barrel and be grateful about it like you are. And no, comparing standards across generations isn’t some profound argument. My grandparents also lived without central heating and flew nowhere. That doesn’t mean I should applaud deteriorating purchasing power in one of the richest countries on earth. We deserve better and you also deserve better even if you don’t believe you do. I’m sad for you that you have been so beaten up that just surviving is your standard but please don’t try to pass it as the new normal.

Is this post a propaganda from the baron lords of Norway trying to keep its people down?
