Because Norway is a super rich country with a tiny population, the pension every Norwegian citizen will receive once they hit retirement age is worth around $340,000 per person. Yup—you read that right. If you’re Norwegian, you’re basically guaranteed a comfy life until the very end.
Their sovereign wealth fund has now surpassed $2 trillion USD, making it the largest pension fund in the world.
So whether you’re rich, poor, or somewhere in between, if you’re Norwegian, retirement is basically a lifetime subscription to “Chill and Enjoy Life.”
Why so high? Simple: rich country + small population = everyone gets a fat slice of the pie
