Mark,
You are correct cost of living in states is less than UK. However
the first on your list of examples is House prices. Generalisations can be
made in all arguments but house prices differ hugely depending on location.
ie, In UK north/south/London house price difference. I lived in NJ for a few
years and have family in the DC area. Housing in parts of NY/NJ/DC/Md can be
higher than southeast UK.
To Generalise : I guess if you earn $60pa you can buy as roughly as many
things as you can as if you are earning £60pa. (That's what 'cost of living'
means to me).
Mike.

I disagree with your disagreement :)
I would still say - like Lee - that the cost of LIVING over in the states is
far less than over here - maybe not in the Netherlands (But I'd be shocked
if it wasn't).
House prices, taxes, food bills, clothes, petrol, car prices.. The list
could go on and on.. You may have been on holiday, and bought all the fun
things TOURISTS go for, but have you considered the cost of LIVING there? I
have, and must say it has tempted me on more than one occasion - ALMOST went
over a couple of years ago to be the web master for my former employee..
Then my great little bundle of joy came along.. Oh well.. one day..
Anyone looking for a junior DBA? :->

I disagree ! The dollar is very strong these days. Maybe a few years back
the cost of living was cheaper in Europe, but now things are different. I
was on holiday in the States last year ... my bank account still suffers :).
And now the dollar is even stronger than it was back then.

Plus the cost of living is higher in Europe, I think.
Is this correct?

Govt.
