Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that
there is no envy on successful people in
the "New World".
There is however a lot more admiration for
successful individuals. In Europe the kids are told in school that one can achieve great success only as a group. The time where the individual self-made man made big
fortunes are over.
So there is more focussing on protection what one has and collectivist ideas.
The reason for the difference in attitude
has probably many causes and I think the main cause is a different philosophical base.
Please read Patricks response and you will
find some answers to your question as well.
Cheers,
