Why Spaniards are Happier than Americans

I talk to Shelby, an American now living in Sevilla Spain about which country she finds happier: USA or Spain. We dive into why Spanish people have much less anxiety than Americans and why the hustle culture is slowly killing people.

    If it wasn’t for Spain’s wealth and RE tax I’d move there

    In Europe she says… Spain is different to north and central Europe… Spaniards are more simple, more relaxed in their life. But because of lack of jobs a lot of Spaniards really struggle … But they still enjoy more compared to some other Europeans.

    It has nothing to do with your job and everything to do with how we spanish people live our families and social lives

    Yet America will never change….and also never have true love… so why all the money problems really

    like every other white country Spain is under POC inv@sion too ( unfortunately ) . Ethnic Europeans are smart, hardworking, talented, well educated, civilised, kind, good looking and GORGEOUS People. They built most developed, most civilised, modern and best countries all over the world. Save and protect beautiful Europe. Spain for Spainards 🫶🏻🇪🇦

    • @dkbabs-s5e9v says:

      There are a lot of mestizo , arab, african, mongoloid etc. immigrant/refugee claim they are Spanish. Spanish people are Latin so they are white/European.

      Latin : French, Italian, Romanian, Spanish, Belgian, Portuguese…

      (Brown mexican is not latin)

      The only thing were Spain beats them is SUN and good weather.

    She works as an expatriate and has a salary in Dollars in Spain.

  • @Fluxwux says:

    Spanish salaries are on average less than minimum wage in Mississippi, but prices for gas, electricity and food is pretty much equal to the US average.

    Spanish unemployment rates (that right now are the lowest in over a decade) is also significantly higher than the worst periods of the 2008 financial crisis in America and Spanish Youth Unemployment rate… It’s similar to South Africa or the United States during the Great Depression in the 1930s!

    As an american, i totally agree.

  • @Akrus15 says:

    Her „feelings“ are not facts.

    World happiness report 2024.
    The US ranks 23
    Spain ranks 36

    25% youth unemployment rate in Spain compared to 9,4% in the US.

    More than double as many Spaniards leave Spain compared to Americans leaving the US every year.

    • @alexp8764 says:

      hahahah in which movie? But if people are literally running away from the United States because you can no longer literally live? Ask you a question every now and then.

    • @Fluxwux says:

      We too can play this game:

      Su1cide rate USA: 16 per per 100 000 population (rank 25 in the world)

      Su1cide rate Spain: 8 per 100k population (rank 70 in the world)

      Life expectancy USA: 79 years

      Life expectancy Spain: 84 years

      Obesity rate USA: 43%

      Murder rate per 100k USA: 5.8

      Murder rate per 100k Spain: 0.7

      Actually many Americans have been moving to Europe since the Bush Jr era. And most Spanish are old not young 😂

    • @alexp8764 says:

      @ Both old and old are going away …… but it is something that now happens in all the countries of the world ……. the story that America was the earthly paradise on the ground, has always been a fairy tale for fools

    • @Akrus15 says:

      @@alexp8764 sure buddy, thats why Barcelona and Madrid have DOUBLE the house prices (compared to income) than SAN FRANCISCO, which is one of the most expensive places in the US. If we compare mid cities like Dallas and Bilbao or Sevilla, the Spanish pay three times more for houses.
      Do you remember when corona hit? 30% of Mallorca‘s population went immediately on food stamps, is that happiness? Where in the US do you see numbers like that? Every 10 years Spain is on the brink of complete financial collapse. Last time you guys had youth unemployment of 50%. That was only 15 years ago, so stop playing boy.

    Also people from the USA don’t have a public health system, and welfare state doesn’t exist there. Here in Europe we live with much more tranquility I think
