Not many people do realize that, I've written more than once about it, but still people seem to think that it's not all that bad because I live in Europe (The Netherlands). And the picture that is painted for many people is that everyone in The Netherlands lives a luxurious life. Well surprise, that picture is painted by a minority. And that minority doesn't even WANT to realize that life in The Netherlands is getting harder and harder with each month.

A study has even confirmed that the wealth distribution in the Netherlands is very skewed. A quarter of the total wealth in the Netherlands is in the hands of 1 percent of households. And one in four households has a net debt.
