The Happiest Country in the world...
Other
I thought this was interesting to share. It is a run down of the happiest countries in the world. The highest ranking was Finland. They put this down to their communal support and mutual trust.

Interesting poll S, thanks, a lot of nordic countries there where the cost of living is extremely expensive, so you could only be happy if you could afford to be
I was surprised Israel was at number 4 considering what is happening at the moment , i would never consider a warring country happy
telmel I didn’t look at how old this article was actually. Uk isn’t as far down the list as I thought it might be.
SaveMeSunday It says 2023 S , so i assume it is up to date , maybe before the conflict started though
There are so many things to take into account regarding happiness , it is difficult to assess a place as a whole when someone could be on the bones of their backside, to phrase it politely, and another person is quaffing caviar and champers , two different worlds but both living in the same country , as happens here
My best mates wife is from Sweden and she is the happiest person I have ever met, she lives in Leeds now, she won't be smiling much longer lol
I have been to many of countries on the list and was in Finland in September. I did notice people playing sports in designated areas and the people were friendly. But until you live somewhere your not going to know the whole truth.
Yep the nordic countries always rank highly on this list which on the face of would seem strange because their taxes are a lot higher as well as cost of living. Thing is i think they feel their politicians actually look after them
There is a very good documentary in netflix called live to 100 which mentions about the best places to live. 1 episode is about Singapore and although the cost of living is very high I could see the reasons to be a good place.
