    Default Myth about rich Finland-Swedes

    Last year 100 Finnish citizens with highest income by surnames

    70 Finmish surnames
    21 Swedish surnames
    9 other surnames

    Millionaires with Finnish names are mostly founders of technology companies and the rest mostly people who inherited property.

    Well not exactly myth is it if they look to be little bit over-presented there. But you are right that with fair game and fair rules, they lose every time.

    Keep in minds also % of Finns and % of Finnish Swedes in Finland.

    Our 21 names is huge result vs 70 names of Finns. Wants to compare average persons of both groups (how wealthy those are)?

    Few other matters.

    1.) How about same (names) with poor people?

    2.) How big share (%) of people are blue collar people and how big share (%) white collar people?

    3.) Will farms /country sides (houses and other buildings etc.) look to be better shape in Swedish speaking area (west coast / Ostrabothnia) vs Finnish speaking area (Eastern Finland)?
