I don't know if all the words in this list qualify. Some of them exist in other languages as specific words as well.

For example:

Fremdschämen To be embarrassed by something somebody else did German

Myötähäpeä in Finnish (alongshame when literally translated)

"Free" if you pay for the 499€ service tier.

0% tax on retained earnings.

So don't put in the money as share capital.

Finland has unlimited (without the quotation marks) data on prepaid SIMs from all carriers. Usually for about 1€ per day or 20€ per month. Depending on the plan it will also include unlimited texts and talk.

Scans do not need to be crazy expensive.

In Finland, unsubsidized, undiscounted and no questions asked, just pay prices for scans from a private health company are 258€.

Expensive, yes. Crazy expensive, no.

That sounds miserable. Give me a good cold winter with snow rather than a miserable non-winter that is damp, wet and slushy. Dry cold is far better than than damp thaw weather.

Both Sweden and Finland have hotels in the capital city center which are former prisons. According to reviews they are well regarded.

> We have a program that grants a short (4 week) sabbatical every 5 years. You can add an additional 2 weeks of PTO to get to a 6 week break.

That's not a sabbatical, that's a normal summer vacation in Europe :)

Why always the focus on free Wifi? Germany, like most of Europe, has good 3G/4G coverage. Rates are reasonable, so you can provide your own connectivity. Far more cheaper than renting a space just to get free Wifi.

That doesn't mean that the German laws about liability for offering connectivity don't suck.

> That's something which is easy to change if there was a will

You don't really believe that, now do you?

Clearing the usage of new frequency bands is a huge regulatory undertaking involving multiple countries. It takes years and massive effort even when there is a very strong will and a clear need.

> Again that is easy to say but it is meaningless unless there are quantifiable metrics by which you can prove that.

Consumer prices.

Geographical coverage.

Unlimited and unrestricted usage.

> If you look at the actual coverage map Finland isn't considerably better than most countries including the US, 4G+ is available in a few hotspots only, and the LTE and 3G coverage is pretty similar.

How did you perform this comparison? I find this claim very unlikely to be correct.

> The 4G+ 300mbit plans from Elisa cost 60 Euros a month without a device, I haven't seen anything so far that is that unusual

This is incorrect.

DNA 300M plan is 30€ per month. Elisa and Sonera are 50€ Per month. All plans without a contract, quotas or limits.

300M are premium flagship plans with a premium price. 100M plan are like 15€.

Starter plans with 50 minutes of talk time and 0,25 Mbps of uncapped, unlimited and unrestricted usage are free on Sonera's network.

What other country comes even close?

> EDIT: You can count Ukko out completely they do not provide voice at all not to mention that paying 85 Euros on a 12 month contract for 3-10 Mbit/s without a device is laughable

Tell that to somebody who would have to rely on satellite if it were not for Ukko. And it's not like you can't run your choice of VoIP over that.

Yes.
