eh..."Pensionsvorsorge"?I mean, we don't have something like a 401k in Austria
We got revenue tax and income tax....the numbers might differ a bit from the US, but the system is essentially the samethe kinds of taxes we have are different

How many do you want/need? There's RedBull, KTM, Glock, Swarovsky, .... plenty of companies that are KILLING IT on a global level, then there's no shortage of privately owned companies that are basically invisible to the public, but making really good money, some hundreds of millions a year with a tight focus on their industry/niche only.And there are not many large companies here - also literally no comparable chances for the people that want a normal career compared to the brutally high pay some specialists get in the US.
Some are considered export world champions.
And a lot of small businesses. They form the majority. Just like in ...the US?
The Austrian government encourages and helps people who want to start a business through RIZ and the WKÖ. We have our own little version of Shark Tank airing on Puls4, one of it's investors sold his little app for €220Mio to Adidas.
And then there's also no shortage of private investors.
There's more opportunity than one person could ever seize, you just don't see it yet.
The problem isn't on the map, it's between your ears.
Get your friggin' head right!
