Good luck but everything I've read about Sweden says you'd need to be rich or on a bloody decent pension/super to live there
One of the highest taxing countries in Europe which allows it the title of 'welfare state'
Sweden is known for its high taxes and large public sector. According to the statistics collected by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (see List of countries by tax revenue as percentage of GDP), Sweden has the highest total tax revenue, as a share of the country's income, of any ranked country (as of 2005). It is also the only country in the world with a total tax revenue higher than 50%.
Cheap property in Sweden?
Does this mean Ikea is now into home building?
You could always move in with Mart in N.Z.
