The INdex of Human development according to International organizations covers 3 Things ,-

1)PIB
2)Life expectancy
3)Level education

The Quality of lif adds more things to the previous ones .-
1)Security
2)Level medicine and generalization
3)Climate
4)Habitat(Artistic level and natural beauty,.
5)Nice Human relationships
6)Good gastronomy
7)Number of Suicides

Note 1.-PIB=Rent per Capita.-
Note2.- Be Start for of an acceptable and sufficient and normal PIB in an Developed Country,.
Nota 3.-In this section some add or remove some number but the previous ones are coincident by the majority.-

Although there are people where they prefer a high level of PIB above the quality of life especially those who do not Know the quality of life in other Countries.-


With these data, what punctuation would give be to each Country?

I don't think too many people have actually lived in all of these countries so it will hard to judge...

I have only lived in 2 (well 3 if you add Canada)

My sister lives in another on the list.

Hard to tell...

If I would have to leave France, that would be USA, Uk, Spain and then Italy..
But there's a country for parasites, named Luxembourg, that gives you sky high wages, advantages of both Lux and France, and the amazing geographic advantages of Europe.
Why would I leave that? .
France with a bit of money, c'est le pied ! Even with yellow jackets!

I wonder if I would like places like Portland... Looks my type of place! But it's SimCity from Google map haha

There is no place better for traveling in and experiencing cultures in than European countries.

There is no place better for working hard and making money in than the United States.

So, go hybrid or have a split personality or something.

If earning a lot of money is not one's priority then I have complete certainty that Spain is the best country in the world to live, hands down.

It does have a lot going for it with great climate imo, excellent food and vino, safe, first world, excellent transportation system, inexpensive. I bought a condo and lived in Marbella for awhile. I would agree that if making money is your goal, Spain is not for you.

out of the ones mentioned: Italy, even if Venice is sinking I'll still prefer it over 99% of the world, only 1-2 places in far asia can make me change my mind.

Tall traveller.-

Dear friend :Thank you very much for you affection for Spain and your comment that I share but
I have tomake an objection an a suggestion to your comment that it is not possible to earn money
in Spain.

Spain has a very socialist political system .It has a formidable health insurance system .Perhaps he best internationally.But that is very expensive .

This is Great because it reassures all the rich and poor citizens in their lives but is maintened with larges taxes that slow down the investment of businessment and explains that there is little job although much less than what comes out in the statiscs because many small bussinesmen fleeing of the Big taxes and they work in Black.

I WILL CONTINUE
