      It Sweden, we pay at least 75% in taxes. More than that if you got a higher salary.
      Because there are many more heavy taxes than the formal "income tax".

      Right, but not. Parents can, within the home or family, offer alcohol, but not in public. The difference between Swedish and Danish culture is that young people 'learn' how to use alcohol. Thus, through modeling (role model), adults/parents teach that drinking alcohol does not mean getting drunk and fighting. In Sweden, young people are sneaking around.

    We cannot buy alcohol at school on a regular basis. It's only when there are school parties and other similar big events.
    Our laws around alcohol here in Denmark are different compared to all the other Nordic countries... In fact, when I went to school in the 90s, there was no lower age limit for buying alcohol at all. That limit first came in 1998 - where a person had to be 15 years old, then a few years later raised to the current 16.

    Having 50% tax though doesn't mean you are paying 50% of your whole salary.
    I don't know what the normal rate is in Denmark. But in Sweden it's 30% up to 504.000 SEK (The majority of Swedes are in this bracket). Anything above that is taxed 50% until you reach 703.000. Then anything above that is taxed 55%
    Hope that makes sense.

      Yeah, nah, we pay more - and "only" have a low and high bracket, no medium =)
      First we pay 8% (Arbejdsmarkedsbidrag) - then we have a deductible (minimum 49.700 yearly, about 4142 monthly) - then we pay from 36-40% in tax (it differs as municipalities have different local tax rates) in our lowest bracket... At 588.900 a year, the amount that surpasses this point will be taxed by an additional 15% (the highest bracket)
      (in £ those numbers are about 10% comparing to Dkk - so tax free amount is 4970 pounds yearly, 414,2 pounds monthly - top bracket at 58890 pounds yearly)

    I've tried to sum up some of the things she's talking about that baffled you. If you have more questions just ask as I am from Denmark. Doesn't mean I know everything, though 😂
    The currency in Denmark (Krone), Norway (Krone) and Sweden (Krona) are all the lokal names for Crown. In tekst it's "kr" like you in the UK use £ for pounds.
    Shortned to DKK, NOK and SEK when looking at the currency when doing conversions.
    So 10 kroner, would in most cases be written as "10 kr." in all the mentioned countries.
    Denmark has always had a very relaxed alcohol culture.
    The school parties she's mentioning are very different from school to school, but how she describes it does happen some places. Most places there are teachers at the parties, though.
    Low percentage alcohol are allowed from age 16 (up to strong beer of 5.6%)
    High percentage alcohol are allowed from age 18 ( over 5.6% alcohol)
    SU (Government education support) is a monthly support you can get while you are enrolled in highschool, college or university.
    It's meant to level out the economy of going to school, so even people from poorer families have no problems getting an education.
    Yes, H.C. Andersen that wrote the Little Mermaid is Danish.

    PS:.. It's quite normal here in Denmark to drink at school parties, where you also buy the beer. But again, it's only for those who are 16 years and older. For some people these parties usually first start in Danish gymnasium (secondary school). Gymnasium is a whole new school institution, that has it's own young adult traditions and history. Gymnasium is optional and can last for 2-3 years after the regular school Year 10 or 11...
    And yes, once you turn 18 you can receive the SU (study salary), for higher education studies. The SU has a limit of 6 education years.

The reason is, that gymnasium parties are allowed to serve alcohol to their students who are under 16 years old, because the events are closed events at the school. Another reason is that some first-year students are still 15 when they start, and the school culture is that they are allowed to buy it in a safe environment at a gymnasium party.

    Thank you for another great video.
    The drinking in school ONLY occurs on special occations and the alcohol is NOT sold by the school - normally, alcohol is not being sold on school ground and is completely prohibited to drink during school hours and without a permission from the school. The paties are planned by the students for the students, and the money come from student donations or be taking an entrance fee, and they are being lend the space for free in all instances I've heard of. The school is basically just a host for its students getting together, and as a broke student it's a great way of meeting your classmates under informal circumstances. And people here doesn't get confused and act all informal during school hours just because they went to a party at school 😉

    In Denmark, many people, especially those with average or lower incomes, have allotment gardens, also known as "kolonihaver." These gardens allow small houses, typically around 60 m², where residents can live from April to September. However, they must maintain a primary residence elsewhere, as living in these houses year-round is generally not allowed. Additionally, many allotment associations require that members are residents of the municipality where the garden is located.
    Kolonihaver are therefore often seen as a type of summerhause or summer cottage, offering a seasonal escape where people can enjoy outdoor life and gardening, while still needing to maintain a primary residence elsewhere. This setup provides a similar experience to owning a traditional Danish summer house but on a smaller scale and often at a lower cost. So its not just the rich part.

    Drinking alcohol does not mean you have to act drunk!! Learning the consequence of drinking (in terms of behavior and expectations) is LEARNED! Therefore better drinking culture in France and Denmark e.g. = you don't act "drunk" just because you've been drinking. REFLECT: How do British young people behave after/while drinking? Or Swedish, which has to sneak in and never learned (like Danish youths, and French).

    You can drink alcohol at birth in Denmark. We do not have a legal drinking age, we have a legal PURCHASE age, but there's absolutely no law, prohibiting children from drinking alcohol. We have beaches EVERYWHERE, there's literal water all around us. What HAS been done, is our former biggest industrial harbor is now so clean, that people can bathe in it, so we created parks in the harbor area, so that inner city people could enjoy bathing in the middle of the city. We have sun from end march to end august.... Literally nothing in this video is accurate. The tax rate is PROGRESSIVE. You pay up to 55% on earnings above 590.000 dkr (65000 gbp) per year. - The "normal" tax rate is 40%, You then have TONS of possible deductions, like if you buy a house, you deduct the interest from the loan you took to buy that house. Literally NO ONE pays 55% taxes. Please don't believe a word you heard from this video. She clearly don't know much about it. We have TWO land borders, with two different countries. You do NOT get "paid a salary" while going to school. You CAN get "SU" - "State educational support", You have to apply for it, and if you live with your parents, it gets regulated according to their salary. The good thing about it is, that the state makes sure you can survive while you are educating yourself. It's in NO way a salary. It's more or less "coffee" money. The "happiness index" is not a voting thing. She seriously makes me want to cringe, because she is peddling so much misinformation it's not even funny.

    Everyone is talking about the alcohol part - yeah and sure enough, I've also been at highschool parties back in 1997-2000 and was quite drunk... Good times 🙂
    But I just want to address the fact that Denmark has 2 land-borders. To Germany as she said, but also with Canada. On the small island called Hans Ø (or Hans Island) between Greenland and Canada. It was decided to draw the border across the island after the "Whisky War" which ended 19th december 2023 (see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whisky_War)
    Yeah education is "free" (you'll pay a shit-ton of taxes the rest of the life to pay for this stuff) and you'll get SU as she states, SU is not a lot, and most students have jobs or loan on the side. But you can totally have your education and be debt free afterwards.
    I looked it up and found data from 2017, actually Maersk, in 2017, was the worlds largest container shipping company and has 15,9% of the global marked.
    About the grading system, it is kind of directly mapped to A, B, C..... That was why we changed from the 13-scale (00, 03, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13) to the 7-step scale (-2, 00, 02, 4, 7, 10, 12) so it was easier to map to international scales...

    You will get a stipend sort of for attending higher educational besides the basic primilary school, it varies depending on the situation as she says. But roughly around 550-650€ per month depending if you live at home, your parents income or if you moved out from your parents.

    Alcohol stuff summarized:
    - drinking alcohol is legal at any age (usually the first experience with alcohol at private parties is in the age range 14-16)
    - At age 16 you can buy alcohol with 16,5% (2024) (most likely 6% from 2025 and onwards)
    - At age 18 all alcohol is allowed for purchase
    - High schools (usually age 15 and up) can sell alcoholic beverages to students of age. They do this during official parties(with security and usually teachers too) and at so-called "fredags bar" where teachers are present (Also varies from school to school)

    Dane here! So the alcohol thing, technically there is no legal drinking age, but there is a age where you are allowed to buy it. which is 16.
    But i was allowed by my parents to start drinking after my Confirmation which was when i was 14, i was not allowed to go "drinking" but i was allowed a glass of beer or wine at a family party/gathering.
    And drinking in school is wrong in the sense that you cant drink during school hours but you can drink at a school party/gathering if you are older than 16. And yes you can buy it at the school for those things!
    Doing this teaches young people to drink responsible and 9 out of 10 don't go behind their parents back and drink.
    At the school parties there are adults who look out for the young people.
    I'm now 34 and i have a good relationship with alcohol. actually i rarely drink at all.
    I think young people want what's not allowed and allowing them it under "control" is better :)
    Yes we get paid to go to school if we are older than 18 :) and this is one of the reasons why we pay taxes!
    You can then also take student loans on top if you want more money, but those need to be payed back
    Please if you visit Denmark, just know there is SO MUCH more to Denmark than Copenhagen
    And it's no longer the queen its now her son who is King and his Wife who is Queen!
    Normally the former queen/king has to die, but the queen stepped down because of age, and the Queen she mentioned is still alive
    And Fika is more a swedish thing not a danish thing, maybe its become more normal in Copenhagen because they are so close to Sweden, but where i live Fika is not a thing

    8:00 It's not really state regulations regarding legal ages or business hours that determine whether young people will be sober, normal, or piss drunk in the weekends. It's about the culture, in combination with genetics (especially in the extreme cases, in either direction). As a Swede, I started tasting alcohol with my parents at around 13, but I was never drunk with them. I still drink very moderately (at 59), because that's in my genetic makeup.

    In Denmark we dont do K-12 schools - we do K-9(10) at one school (so elementry and junior high is at the same place and not divided - same principal) - and then 10(11)-12 (like highschool) is different, at this stage you chose what kind of highschool you wanna go to - the original all around, a tech and trade (carpentry etc.*) savvy one or a business one (those are the major pics, there might be other kinds), when you finish 12, you are ready for uni. Also when you are done with 9th, you are about 15 or 16 years old as we enter K the year we are or become 6 years old (in Denmark the K is just zero, so 0-9th grade, as Kindergarten = børnehave and are for kids 3-5 years old - preschool - and 0-3 goes to daycare - vuggestue)
    So our highschool equivalent is the first time we are really broken up with our former K-9 classmates and starting new - And in Denmark you have to be 18 to buy alcohol in bars, restaurants and so on, 16 to do so in the shops BUT that is not a restriction of consumption, but of purchase - so you can legally be 10 years old and drik a beer in a park. Not that this would be a common sight, but it is far from rare to be drunk with your parents the first time you are drunk, for me it was at my confirmation (religion), but this differs. The goal is to get to know and be safe around alcohol (dont drink till you pass out, but if you do, you are in a somewhat safe space) - My guess is that highschools continues this, as alcohol consumption by young people is somewhat normal, with most adults going "I was your age once too, and rather you be safe" - most teens also know they can call their parents when they need to get home drunk from a party and parents will "gladly" do so (annoyed to do so maybe, but also relieved the "kids" are safe).
    * Carpentry and other trades can give you a highschool diploma (the one you need for uni) if you chose so from the beginning, and you will then have to be at school much more than if you chose to "just" become a carpenter as the diploma in the end can land you in Uni (depending on grades ofc. - but any kind of Uni, does not have to be tech/trade related)

    In Germany, too, you can buy beer and wine at the age of 16. But in general, everything that is not forbidden is less interesting. But I have never seen or experienced pupils getting drunk at school. I've been a teacher for 25 years.

    Adding to the SU, the "salry" you get while studying isn't that large, and you do have to be over 18 years old, and you have a fixed amount of time where you can get SU (around 5 years). The max amount you can get in SU is about 600 pounds each month. If you live buy your self in Copenhagen, you basically use all you SU on just rent. So almost all students have a job besides.

    Ehm... it's a couple of years, or perhaps 20, since I left high school.
    There was a Friday bar, hosted on the premises of the school, staffed by volunteer students.. no big deal.
    But the chemistry lab also had something weird going on, every Friday it seemed like the jugs with 98% pure ethanol seemed to have an unusual high amount of evaporation. And a whole lot of laboratory one-time use rubber gloves went missing, while the helium tank lost at least 20% of its pressure.
    😄 of course I have no clue what happened, but when the Friday bar opened, it was usually invaded by a bunch on singing smurfs.
    Kids be kids, but look out for each other.
    Edit 12:00 😂 That's not normal? We're good to each other... never experienced as much as a rude attitude at school parties... that kinda stuff came in like a wrecking ball when I went down town where they require you to be 18 and wear shoes and a shirt.
    Edit 15:50 : is getting paid for drinking abnormal? Why do you think more places are adopting a 4-day work week?
    Nah in all seriousness... many places in Denmark won't give you trouble as long as you meet their expectations. And a couple of times a year they totally let go, usually right before summer vacation and xmas.
    Friday bar is not uncommon at companies either, but again it's the promises allowed, employees bring their own beer, or arrange something with other employees.
    On the other hand, and in return, a lot of employees are willing to turn it up to 11 when the company needs it... be it late weekend nights or whatever.
    Last time I did that, I took 2 x 15 hours on an airplane to India and back, just to stay 24h in India with our sourcing partners. Of course my boss didn't ask me to show up at the office the day after.

      I thought so too... but that's what the jugs said... there was 96% too if I remember correctly... perhaps the 20 years and the fumes of them make me remember wrong....
      Then it must've been 94 and 96% ... anyway it's something you can't just buy as a regular person. And it's meant for chemistry, so no puke ingredient.

    The philosophy is that we want to teach the young ones to drink responsibly . Fact is they drink TOO much TOO young.
    Too much beer or wine and you'll vomit before you die - and then you won't die.
    Half a bottle of alcohol drunk quickly, and can go into coma... Call an ambulance NOW
    I'm 60, when I was young we had a few cases of boys sharing a bottle of vodka behind a bush, and being hopitaliced. So the age limits were introduced.
    Mind you, I could buy whatever - booze and tobacco - as soon as I was allowed to cross the road. I think we had to be 15 to buy pornography 🤔

    There is no legal drinking age there is a buying alcohol law at 16 and 18 but if your parents allow it you can drink below 16. You cannot drink in school but at the parties the hold just about every other week they sell alcohol at the party. The student counsel are responsible for the parties. its an older video technically we have a land border with Canada too. Yes a small sum of money is payed out every month called SU. Yes H.C. Andersen wrote the little mermaid he was Danish sadly young people dont care that much for the history reason that Denmark is great for, only money and parties on their minds. Unlike Brits the Nordic people are hard to keep in line if someone does something they shouldnt we will be in their face straighten them out especially the system and government. We also work less than most countries in Scandinavia but keep up with or in some case out perform others in output. Our grades is a bit confusing but yes in practice you have yearly grades in both being active in class a on paper on top of this we have tests both verbally and writing at the end of semesters. We have a king now!. The Danish royal family does a hell of a lot of work outside just being on the throne so we get what we pay for I feel

    Oh and if your parents are ok with drinking you can buy rum and coke at a younger age than 16. I meet a lot of 13-14 year old girls in nithclubs and they cant buy anything in there, but they always have a drink in their hand.. and i dont know anyone that owns a Scooter. We walk or bike in my world. Only 3% of anyone i know can afford a car.. i know doctors and nurses and dentists and no one has s car.. the few people that has a car have their own business. Like Fortune 500 people. And school is as she says. But you could have a note from your pstents and drink at 14. So whatever you think, its actually earlier. And drinking doesnt lead to anything. So i doubt anything would happen at a school party with drinks. I've never seen anyone drink at my youth club in the 80s. I was the dj and everyone came with notes from home. Danes are not vikings that get drunk just because you can. You will see a few but theres not 300 drunks rolling out of the school after the party. 😊

    Denmark has for years been the country in Europe where most 15yo has experienced being drunk, although it is getting less. I grew up in the 80/90's, my dad gave me sips of beer at age 7/8 on Saturdays, when we where watching football from England. Was around 12 when we started doing house parties at friends places who's parents were away. 15yo class trip to London, we went straight to the liquor store & filled our tub with beers. 15/16yo started clubbing, where they let us in & sometimes we had to use our fake id. So when i tell my American friends that when i was 21yo, i had already been drunk about 500 times, they don't believe me 🤣🤣🤣. Btw you are completely delusional when it comes to Faroe Island & your history. Look up viking age & then you'll find out why Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Faroe Island & Iceland as well, wasn't just for you to colonize & if so why didn't you just take Greenland from us ?...We ruled England, not the other way around. All the best from Denmark ❤

    Norway is not part of the EU, so they wouldn't use euro regardless. :P It was Sweden, Denmark, Poland and Hungary within the EU who kept their currency during that particular election. And the UK as well I think, but they don't count since brexit. :P
    The studying grant is something we have in Sweden as well, you'll get payed for studying as a student. However, the money typically does not fall on the student's own responsibily and will be given to a resposible parent or guardian. From here it is typically up to them to decide whether they should give the money to their children or use the money to buy clothes and food or other stuff. For me, my mom would transfer the money to me if I got good grades on my tests, but not otherwise.
