  • If someone calls it their summerhut (hytte), they have at least one more, used for the winter. So your friend is rich. Many people only have one, and those who don’t (like me, grew up very poor) are usually considered “lowered”-class.

    Norway is, unfortunately, mostly about status and class, which is fucking horrible… First thing people ask is “what do you for a living” to figure out how much respect to give you. I hate it! I remember at a party with rich people; when asked what I did, I told then I was retired. They then asked if it was “early retirement because you cannot work?” I smiled and said no, I just don’t need to work. They would then talk to me about investments etc instead of not talking to me at all… Fuck these people!!
