When I dig into the info I can find on tax rates and earnings per capita, I don't see the money being there for somebody just out of school to "owns a chic French car and a €200 000 apartment".

I worked for Volvo Cars recently. Earned over $7000 a month and paid very little in tax (around 15% or so).
Belive it or not, Sweden is not a f*cked up corner of this world.
