Europe is a really bad place for building wealth due to taxes, low wages, and high regulations. There's a saying that I completely forget the exact wording but I'll paraphrase which is build your wealth in the US and then once you reach FatFIRE move to Europe where there is better infrastructure and much lower cost of living plus a less toxic dating/marriage culture. I strongly recommend working as hard as you can in your 20's to reach FatFIRE - the feeling of being able to live a great life off of just capital gains, dividends and interest is the best ever and is totally worth long hours when you're young and can easily work those hours.
