Is Denmark one of the happiest countries? American point of view

[@birbman9992]

I believe the happiness stems from the fact that you worry a lot less. A lot of studies have even shown that anticipation of something bad happening is worse mentally than the actual bad thing, so knowing you'll be safe almost no matter what just helps you to be more comfortable and stable, which is generally what we consider happiness.

[@finncarlbomholtsrensen1188]

Working as a craftsman in Denmark, in a small factory, my Boss noticed at a "health-meeting", that during ten years I had one day off being sick! Of course letting your colleagues down would be harder for them to still produce the same, but we never felt any pressure and had our 6 weeks vacations at separate times during the year also. It was my best place to work and I worked there for 20 years till nearly my pension.🙂

As a Portuguese I was taught the most valuable lesson of all upon coming to Denmark, to appreciate the very small things in life. As for friendships, you are allowed to use your elbows and invite yourself into a small group, you just have to find the right balance and be delicate about it while giving it a lot of time, I have the best friends in the world and it took me perhaps 2-3 years to gain those friendships.

@@TravelinYoung And i appriciate your honest view on life here, us danes and Denmark in general. I have american friends that years ago left their dream of moving here, because they got scared by the false labels about Denmark and Scandinavia in general. Its really not that bad here, salary and welfare system reflect the high taxes, we have more freedom(s) than most people around the world, you in your video mentioning some of them, like the freedom in not having to worry about the childrens education, not having to worry about hospital and doctor bills, the freedom to take the whole family to vietnam each year on vacation because we get 6 weeks paid vacation from work each year, there is a freedom in those things that are hard to appriciate if you never tried it. And i really think you give a truthful view on Denmark and i as a Dane (proud yet humble as we are) like to see other people almost viewing my country as through my eyes, it warms my heart :) You live in one of the worlds oldest kingdoms with The worlds oldest national flag still in use, we are a small country but have survived this long, we can only be proud of the society that we have created and even more so when people like your family can appriciate it and want to share your honest view so that maybe other americans could learn to love these values as both you and i do, americans are more than welcome here and since most danes know a basic level of english, communication isnt a huge problem, i hope :)

dont worry, the current status for denmark is really bad. the amount of problems the government has at the moment, plus the communes dont care if you got a problem is insane. i was promised treatment for some physical problems i had in the past, but it took them 3 years after more than 10 requests from my mom, before they looked into it and the person who promised me this had already resigned. then i had to wait like 1 more year, and then i got my treatment. even so, the commune i live in today is very greedy. so is most of denmark, its just a greedy place to live in. even as a citizen, youre not treated well and the police department is too short on men to patrol small cities but they send around 10k policemen out to find illegal scooters, not cars but scooters. one of my moms friends husband is really sick and is close to dying. he needed treatment for his mental health, even surgery, but the hopistal saw he was close to dying so they kept on postponing it because they didnt want to use the money and the resources to make someone last just bit longer. even when looking at the good things here in denmark, its just sad. if youre poor, youre just getting poor. if youre rich, youre just getting richer. theres no in between as a dane, i can only give you my POW but as a swede i can only give you the issues. denmark messed up my life in many ways and gave me scars for life, i am not planning on staying here

[@vonduus]

The thing about caring for the old: This depends very much on if you live in a city like Copenhagen or if you live in the countryside. People in the countryside look after their old ones, whether they are family or not. When my mom was old, she and her neighbor had an unspoken agreement: When she woke up in the morning, she would open the curtain in her kitchen window, so that the neighbor would know that she was okay. If the curtain wasn't open, the neighbor would check in on her, to see what was wrong. In addition, the neighbor would check in on her regularly anyway, twice a week or so, just in case. (And to get a cup of coffee). This arrangement was a big relief for me, as I live in Copenhagen, and she lived in the far west of Jutland, so I couldn't just go and see her every day. So that made ME happy! If you live in Copenhagen, people are not checking in on you so much, if at all, unless, of course, they are your friends. I think the whole thing boils down to a very healthy view on generational debt: My son owes me nothing. What I gave him, when he was a kid, was the repaying of my debt to my parents, and I expect him to pay me back by being a good father for his kids. The same goes for our health and social care: I have paid a shitload of taxes in my lifetime, and most of the money was used to keep old people I don't even know alive, to give kids and young people I don't know an education, and to pay the hospital bills of people I don't know. Now I am old, and happy, because some people I don't even know are paying my pensions and my medical bills. So we Danes are even happy to pay our taxes (well, most of us, most of the time) because we can see that the money are put to good use.

Even though my brother visits dad roughly every other day, and takes him shopping once or twice a week.... Personally I live in a high rise with about 100 people. From all over the world. I don't know them all, but most of us check on each other weekly, and sometimes go shopping together. It's the scandinavian norm, I think. Stay safe and well. Love from Oslo, Norway 💖

[@Trinecolorfunzzz2]

My grandma lives in the same building block as my family (and also me when I did live there), she is really not well so we check on her a lot the whole family. Because of the welfare older people feel confident enough moving away (or being okay being away) from their kids and grandchildren. Which of course leads to less check ups.

The best Cocio you can get, is when you walk through town on a frosty day, kicking the slush with your boots, cold to the bones. Then you spot a pølsemand in his pølsevogn, and decide to order an indianer i kano og fuld krigsmaling (a hotdog) with a varm Cocio. You'll start eating the hotdog waiting for the Cocio to cool a bit, then you carefully take your first small sip.

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for sharing this. I have traveled a fair bit around europe, and often eastern europe, and I think that some of the things that danes do not take notice of, is how lucky or fortunate they/we are, to be born in this developed society, where people has, in the past struggled, fought and worked hard for what we have today. We take so many things of the society for granted, grumping and complaining about this and that. We need more humility towards our own country and history, and be more grateful. So I thank you, for giving your view on how great Denmark is, because it's only in your perspective, that we can see why we need to be grateful!

You are totally right! Some Danes will smugly say "well, I'M not happy, not EVERYTHING is great" like they've debunked the whole idea, and completely overlook that just because everything in your life isn't perfect, everyone living here still has a LOT to be grateful for and happy about. Low crime and corruption, strong safety net, no-cost-at-point-of-access healthcare and education (and you get paid to go to school!), a general understanding that life events trump work concerns, reasonably strong social capital... It's not perfect, but it's a lot better than what most people have! Some Danes are just spoiled, by which I mean not grateful for what they have.

[@BrianKlausen]

Hi there. Recent subscriber here. Watching videos of foreigners reacting, reflecting and so on, to various things about Denmark, has been a guilty pleasure of mine on and off for years. You know, we Danes really like hearing foreigners talk about us - I guess I am no different :). But I usually get fed up really fast, due to the videos often being very superficial. Yours are definitely a cut above the norm. Much more reflection, perspective and so on, and a video on a topic like this one, also causes me to reflect on my own situation as a native Dane. So thank you for that! On the topic of this video, I personally think you pretty much hit the main reasons - but personally think that the causes of some of these reasons maybe a different. Biggest thing I think, is definitely the stress thing. And when you think about it, it is kind of obvious - it almost is the direct opposite of happiness right :). So the overall stress level is low for a lot of the reasons that you mention - and personally I think that money is one of the big contributors here. Given the broad and overall social and medical security setup we have, along with low unemployment rates for decades now, the average Dane will just have a fundamental sense that there definitely are limits to how bad things can go, and that those limits aren't terrible. Being a very homogenous country - both in terms of economic and culture - also helps I think. It comes down to the fundamental sense of "the tribe". If just about any one of your fellow country men act almost exactly like you, look like you, live like you, talk like you, etc., you will trust your fellow country men much easier, and that makes social contracts much easier to establish, and solid going forward. Obviously there are a ton of other things that go into it, but I think those are the two most important ones. Mirandas point about our minimalism, I don't personally really see as playing a role - at least not on the economic side of things. But maybe the more simplistic way of decorating is also overall calming, and helps you find your centre on a day-to-day basis, in a very subtle way. If there is something about the more minimalistic style contributing to happiness, I think it is more in that way. Well, just my few cents and those are very subjective, so I could be utterly wrong. So I just thought I would say thank you for some great and interesting videos, and kudos on your big effort on integrating, doing your utmost to try things, understand, reflect and so on - I can only imagine that it will go well for you. Best of luck!

[@lopaisate]

Indeed, for me the point about minimalism causing more happiness was more about the fact that when there's less clutter, less things to clean, less mess, etc there is less stress. I realized a few years ago that my anxiety was closely tied to clutter. The more clutter there was, the more stressed I got. So I adopted minimalism as a way to help (which it did) and that's when I started researching more about hygge and Meik Weiking's research into happiness.

When I first started delving into the internet to learn anything and everything Danish, I was so fascinated by these metrics about happiness. To me it was almost like a testament to the sort of culture that could make that happen, and it constantly inspired me to want to learn more Danish. Yeah, I definitely do think a lot of Americans at least will mistake what is meant by what the "happiest country" is like. It's not that citizens are experiencing euphoria constantly, it's that the environment they live in is set up to cut out as many contributing factors for *UNhappiness as possible, whereas in other parts of the world the political situation caters to a select and lucky few. And I just love how the Nordics fight over the privilege of being called the happiest in any given year. Why can't more countries have that sort of ambition? Seems to me that it's the only logical ambition that a country SHOULD have in the first place, not who has the most guns or most oil.

[@TravelinYoung]

While we didn't talk about it, in DK there is this concept of no one being better than anyone else. I found Americans are often driven by being better than others, at work, having a better car, bigger house, etc etc. With that motive it is hard to maintain contentment or happiness.

@@TravelinYoung - In Denmark, you can easily live next to someone with a bigger house/car/tv and still be great friends with them. The trick is that the person having the "better" of something, doesn't start looking down at you for not having the same things, and doesn't turn it into a contest. Most danes will be happy and congratulate their friends or neighbours with something like a new car, new job, promotion etc. As long as the person doesn't change behaviour over it. But let's be honest, will a bigger/better car/tv/house actually make you happieras a person?

[@tarber74]

This is by far one of the most accurate descriptions of the Danish happiness ranking. You’re very spot on with your observations - and describing happiness as being content is so very true speaking as a Dane. I acknowledge that we Danes are notoriously bad at inviting new comers into our friend circles as we often have a strict distinction betweeen friends and colleagues (work friends) which make especially hard for immigrants as they are most likely to meet Danish friends in the workplace. But be advised - that we are always open for Friday beers (or Friday after hours hang outs) and this is very efficient way of moving from being a colleague to a friend if you have some patience. And thank you for sharing your observations - it’s always interesting to hear what other cultures think of your own. And I found your views on tax vs free healthcare, education etc quite interesting as that is not normally the views of the general American (or at least how I perceive the general American maybe wrongfully so)

You guys make me proud to be danish :). When talking about danish economy and debt, I wanna also mention how we buy houses here in Denmark. We bought a house 7 years ago. Let us say that the price was 2 million Danish crowns (DKR). We had to pay 20% of that "up front" (a bank load of 400000 DKR - which is pretty much my yearly income before taxes and savings etc). The remaining 80% is a loan taking in a very cheap and very long running loan. So this means that you dont need to be really rich do buy a house. In the first 3 years we got rid of the bank loan (which is more expensive) and only paid interest on the "big" loan. After that, we made a 30 year plan of getting rid of the debt, still with no crazy high interest. That it interesting because I hear that it is almost a unique thing to Denmark with these long term loans with very low interest. Also, I think one of the main reasons for our happiness is our trust. And we expect trust from others. We expect our boss to trust us, and sometimes will ask them to concentrate on their own job, which isnt micro-managing their employees. And we trust our builders, so we don't need huge contracts if we want a new window installed in our house. We call a company and make an appointment. Then we agree with the builder where we will hide the key, and then they go and install our window while we are at work (except when Covid-19 forces us to be at home anyways). Then we see that they did it, and we pay for the service. All on a verbal contract.

If you live temporarily in Denmark then yes it will be a little bit hard to start a friendship with a Dane (but if you have a good sense of humor it wouldn't take you a long time before it will happen), & if you live in Denmark permanently then you'll for sure soon get a couple of friends for life! I'm myself a Danish citizen (born & raised here to Arab parents), and when I say Danes loves a good laugh I mean it! 😃 When I was a kid at age 16-17 I spent a week in a car mechanic workshop as in something called "Elevpraktik", and f... me 😂 everyday we laughed our asses of (we did not take anything seriously, and the boss was the mastermind behind it 😂) We have something called "Sort humor" of which we tell each other dark humor jokes (again not to be taken seriously), or if anyone of us was caught slippin your own coworkers will throw you into a pool of cold water, give you something called a "Buksevand" 😂, put a 5 Kroner in your a** crack if you're bending over & not paying attention, or for that matter throw you in a workshop garbage bin.. 🤭 It's called "Værkstedshumor", and even when I worked in a warehouse we had the same fun!

Something many also forget about "free" medical servises is that the government as a big customer is ablt to buy medicin etc cheaper then smaller US hospitals. That mean that even though danes pay less pr capita (5205 USD in 2016) to healthcare then US do pr capita (9892 USD in 2016), we still get the same or better treatment and for the whole population. This is also why it often is alot cheaper to buy medicin in Canada (for a US citizen) then to buy it in the US, for the same product btw.

And it seems like you embrace all that is Danish in our little country here. I would add to your sentiments expressed here that what I'm personally hearing you describing is lack of economic anxiety. Almost all the topics you came around was worrying about how you pay for this or that, even in the future IF grandma gets sick, or if you lose your job, or if YOU yourself gets sick etc... We have none of that. Avoiding anxiety = feeling safe. Feeling safe = feeling content. And as you stated: feeling content = feeling happy. You cannot be "truly happy" about your job, life, health if you constantly have to fear that literally tomorrow you can lose it all from no fault of your own... Also: a quick note. I'm a 36 year old Danish male, and I have NEVER in my life met a Danish person with a gun. Not a single individual. EVER! That should maybe be a topic for you at some point? Your lovely daughter eluded to it speaking about school doors being unlocked (and my reaction was: "why on earth wouldn't they be"?) I get that you are forced to think about it in the US, and it speaks to a lot about why we are so happy in DK. We do not have to worry about a lot. We don't have the worries, or the anxieties. We are simply carefree and content, for the very most part.

Thanks for the feedback! I’ve thought about a video discussing guns, but it is a sensitive subject so I need to figure out the best approach. I am not into guns myself and never plan to own one. So my personal perspective might be similar to the average Dane :).

[@seiferyentertainment9258]

​@@TravelinYoung It surely is a sensitive subject for your US viewers, but guns as a topic is not an issue at all here in Denmark as you know. When nobody has guns, no one speaks about guns, or worry about them. (and more importantly has no reason to fear them). Also I think the lack of "economic anxiety" is more on point regarding the video here. And I find it to be THE reason why scandinavia/the nordics in general is regarded some of the happiest places to live. The safety net of the welfare state gives wel-fare, which translates directly into "faring well" in life, if thinking of the origins of the word. The "well" part is the "safe" part. What does "well" mean? Contentment. The state helps you fare well in life. In Denmark you can more easily fare well, and many reach "happiness" cause of the state, not despite it. One could argue, at least.

The thing about classes being made up of kids that have known each other for years is a hurdle for anyone new, not just foreigners. I switched school a couple of times in folkeskole, because my parents got divorced and I moved with my mother, and then we moved again when she remarried. My experience is that the new guy/girl in class is top of the list to become the next bully victim. That's back in the 80's and 90's though, so may be different now. I personally got bullied for years until 2 new girls transferred in in a short time. Then one of the girls became the new target. How much it was because she was new, and how much it was because of her personality I can't say though. But she did have her personality against her. My issue may also have been that I had little in common with my classmates. I was lucky enough to discover a peer group of nerds from the kids that were a year younger than us though. All that is not an issue at efterskole or højskole though. Getting a fresh start at a ungdoms højskole was a huge leap forward for me socially.

From my experience with new kids(haven't been it myself but have had a fair amount of new kids in my class), except of course always being hard to get into a friend group, the new kid get a lot of attention and people trying to befriend them, so I think it depends on the class. Fx my class we didn't really had many groups to some extend everyone was together except a few sometimes grouped of and mostly the guys was together and the girls was together, but we were also the class who nearly never had any problems, so maybe we deviated a lot from an typical class.
