    Yes for a Spaniard even if Spain is probably the best country in the world, considering all aspects.

    1500s-1700s would have been better for me.

    No, life is pretty good for me.

    If I would have been born 200 years ago I'd be a peasant.

    This may mean that you would have more chances to become a noble, than you have to become upper class today.

    Social mobility no easier in England’s modern meritocracy than in medieval oligarchy



    The rate of social mobility in England over the past century and a half was substantially slower than most social scientists believe – and possibly slower than in the Middle Ages.

    That is the conclusion of a major research project by Gregory Clark, professor of economics at the University of California, Davis, who recently presented his results to the annual conference of the Economic History Society at the University of Cambridge.

    This era is fine. I could make a choice today to disengage from society and "go bush" yet still have the ability to connect from afar.

    We can live the farmer/hunter-gathererer lifestyle and still earn an income. Or leave the "bush" and enjoy time in a cultured environment or tropical paradises on a whim and then return.

    This amount of flexibility has never been available in the past. Yes, Covid has affected our ability to travel right now but it will pass. And this PC/woke society doesn't need to affect you if you don't let it.

    Maybe if I lived within the heavily urbanised European continent, this would be more difficult. Maybe.
    Nine out of ten concerns are completely unfounded.
