Of course everyone wants to "marry" Norway, once forgotten and ignored, now--because the governments since the mid-1970s have been stashing away the petroleum revenues from the North Sea, and the investment fund (in a "lockbox," by the way) is way over $200 billion now.

Not only their elder cousins the Swedes, but the whole entire European Union wants to marry Norway, which if it dared joined the Union, would be the first member to join with a substantial bank-account rather than a substantial deficit and debt.....and would have to "share."

Money does wonders for the appearance of a woman.....

I tell you average wage is lower in Sweden than Norway. The number you had for Sweden Might be for average full time employed person 37,5 hours a week with 5-6 weeks vacation. The number for that in Norway is probably around 350000 kroner. 55500 Dollars. Average minmum wage is higher in Norway too. Around 16-17 dollars an hour

Some might prefer Uma Thurman instead...
