No control over to whom, just where.

    I’ve said that, if I had it to do over again, I might choose to move to Norway or Finland instead of Japan, but birth? I don’t know that’s possible to answer. Even if my family were the same people, they’d probably be culturally different having been born and raised somewhere. Even if we assume my parents were just plonked down there, I probably still wouldn’t be the same person due to my environment. Some of that almost certainly for better, but I wouldn’t be me.

    I am actually living less than a mile from where I was born, like some middle ages peasant who never traveled, but have traveled. I’d like to have been born here, but in the timeline where Al Gore waited for the ballots to be counted and won.

    Pretty happy with where I was originally born to be honest. I just wish the country it’s in hadn’t gone to fascist oligarch shit.

    France. Their culture is more open, they are more efficient, modern and if they dislike something they not just complain but move to change it. Also their trains are punctual (i am german)

            THAT is what i love about france! They actually rise up! They protest! So many germans just complain but then dont get their ass up to mass protest. France rose up when they had their retirement almost raised. Germany did nothing. There is a debate about people should work 48 or 56 hours “for the good of the economy”. BARELY anyone protests!

    Czechia seems like it’d be pretty based. or Estonia. I like Central/Eastern Europe. or maybe Thailand.

    The single largest predictor of future wealth and earning potential in America is what ZIP code you were born in… So, with that in mind… 94027 or 33109. If you’re born in one of those two areas, you’re pretty much guaranteed to be a multi-millionaire by birth.
