Norway has a population of 5.4 million. Almost everyone in this country owns a house, while poverty is practically unheard of.

No wonder our bus driver bragged that he was very rich. Besides a big house and big car, he said he also owns a seaside villa (in fact, there are about half a million private-owned villas in the country) and a private yacht (over a million private-owned)!
