In recent years, as a result of increased food prices, skyrocketing mortgage interest rates and breathtaking electricity bills, Swedish households have been forced to turn over every single kroner to make the economy work.

– I think that the reason why it feels so far away is that many see the need to “save” up to a million kroner. Saving to such an amount in an interest-free account takes an extremely long time.
