To my American fellas: you think you want to move to Europe, but you don’t.

Hi guys, There seems to be a lot of misconceptions regarding Europe, so I just wanted to point out something. You know what the median salary per capita is like in France and Germany? 1800-2000 euros a month, give or take. The average income is around 2500 euros a month. I think a lot of Americans idealize Europe, but none of them would be ready to move, when we earn such small salaries comparatively. You won't become rich in Europe unless you create a successful company, and although you can live an ok life with an average salary, that's just what it is, “ok”, nothing more. Nothing exciting. No big house / appartment like you'd get in America, no awesome opportunities, nothing of the sort. It's really not that exciting of a prospect honestly.
