Due to taxation and shit. In the usa all inscurance and hospital bills are voluntary no? Unlike in europe. While I like our taxation system I can acknowledge that it’s nearly impossible to become rich in europe. Most millionaires and billionaires are from the usa after all. Also it is way easier to find a business in the usa than in europe. In europe being an entrepreneur is hell mode.

You can get rich anywhere, it depends the market you're in, but generally people in the US have a larger mindset of consumerism, so selling to them (specially tech-related stuff) is easier there. Wealth in Western Europe isn't impossible, selling in Eastern Europe is much more of a struggle unless you're trying to do business in like "boring" stuff (think renting, construction, etc), it's not impossible to sell things in tech but it becomes substantially harder.

I wouldnt consider business in the rest of the world, because you need a huge capital to begin with and massive appeal to people in other countries to not fail. People in Asia, Latin America and Africa are generally poorer and less open to impulse buying most products you as a business owner are trying to provide.

of course, what you pay in taxes you don't pay in medical care if you get into an accident for example
You will make more money in the US, except if you have any health issues
I think you have much more chances to go personal bankrupt in US than in europe
basically its higher chances to be rich but higher chances to become poor very very fast
in europe you can still become rich but at slightly lesser odds and have very little odds to lose everything after a car accident for example

Ok so in the usa it's more in either side of the spectrum. You either get really wealthy or realy poor.

you can also just be middle class but if you try to become really rich in us you have more chances to succeed but you can also fail more brutally.
if you pay for health & other insurances, it might be more expensive than in europe tbh i don't really know

The guys who became rich in the west are already rich, even in America, in 2025 it's going to be very difficult if you didn't already come from a millionaire family that can help you start up

Where exactly are you situated? The situation in Germany tax + insurance wise is, that you get exponentially more cucked until you hit the magical 80k/year before taxes mark (as a married man with a lower income wife) and suddenly your real tax rate decreases with every additional Euro you earn, because you hit insurance contribution cap and get more and more child tex credit as well. Being middle class is brutal and you get fucked, but as a richfag, you can just avoid all taxes. If you become an entrepreneur, you can check out of public insurance and just insure yourself for bare essentials. That craters your real tax rate as well. The only thing that sucks ass are the regulations, but US regulations are just as insane, except for some more economically liberal states like Florida or Texas

yet minimum wage is $7.25/hr
so its basically 3x minimum wage
here at mcdonalds you get paid minimum wage and maybe a bit more if you live in an expensive city/area
but never 2x the minimum wage

Pretty much. Average USA guy in the exact same job I do in the UK makes 3-4x as much. Living costs are almost the same and taxation in USA is less.
