We have that in Sweden too. As an expat it's a complete nightmare for me from day one. Getting my bank to successfully issue it was impossible.

First, in the days before mobile bank-id, they sent windows-only hardware as I recall. Then came the days of letters/cards/hardware getting lost in the mail.

I gave up on it in the end. I have multiple things (banking-wise) I no longer have online access to because of it.

If you're going to make one system to rule them all you need to make sure the logistics actually work.

The entire concept of "presented hobbies" is what we are taking issue with.

What wwould this better your odds for? Short-term dating success perhaps. I'm pretty sure there are better long-term strategies for happiness.

Be yourself, like what you like (unashamedly), and you will likely attract people into your life who like those same things, and indeed you.

Yeah fair enough then, that's true - misunderstood your comment.

I don't know anyone who calls take-home (net) pay gross salary in Europe. I have lived and worked in multiple countries.

And the actual gross is definitely displayed on the payslips.

Your definition of interesting might be the most interesting thing in this comment.

I would not say that any of that makes you particularly interesting. Some of it might make you attractive to certain people, but I think that's quite different from what was originally intended by "interesting" in this thread.

"Say it's your hobby"... I suggest actually finding a hobby. Because it will make you happier, not because it will make you "look interesting".
