The issue with Romania is that despite insane elite human capital (you will see that most tech or finance companies in Europe and the US have Romanians in their lead engineering or board positions), the political ruling class is probably of the lowest quality in Europe (bar Bulgaria). Natural resources, a well educated elite and great strategic position, with a really well developed industrial base, Romania is growing despite severe mismanagement in recent years. Most entrepreneurs and business people here avoid at all cost to work with the state as the justice and fiscal systems are so byzantine and weaponized that you become a target just by cooperating. So they try their best to avoid and comply with ANAF, avoid any politician or government bureaucrat and work with the local population and external investors and markets (the locals being extremely hard working people). You end up having these "household" companies then that finance the media and get juicy construction, energy or consulting contracts and management of state firms, which provide inefficient services and goods and further clog the economy. If the hold of the security services on the economy and the government apparatus would subside with a judiciary and fiscal code overhaul, I think Romania has the potential to become one of the largest EU economies. But again, being in politics is a toxic and dangerous affair, you won't see Matei Zaharia from Databricks taking role in parliament (neither will you see Teo from Twitter lol) so we are where we are
Jason - macro / offshore / investing@MacroJason

In so many of these metrics where Poland is ranked 1st - Romania is often right behind (or ahead). But you rarely hear about it. Examples 👇 - Polish average salaries grew 2x in last 10 years. But it grew 3x in Romania. - Adjusted for inflation, Poland's income per capita is up 90% since 2004. Romania is up near 140% (top in EU). x.com/EU_Eurostat/st… - Polish equities index $EPOL had an amazing last 12 months up 30%. But Romanian equities index #BET is up 88%. - Most international financial headlines on Romania talks about it's deficit situation. Poland's deficit is no better but we rarely hear about it. x.com/MacroJason/sta… - Romania hasn't defaulted or restructured a sovereign bond in 93 years. Poland did so 44 years ago. linkedin.com/feed/update/ur… - Poland's English proficiency is impressively ranked 15th place globally. But Romanian is ranked 11th. (Similar on IT talent per capita). - Poland is one of the more energy independent countries in the EU. But Romania is the largest nat gas producer in the EU. x.com/MacroJason/sta… I'm still developing my thesis on why Romania is so over looked relative to Poland by international investors. Some existing ideas 👇 - Lower quality governance and institutions (though the reality is that over a long enough timeline, the quality of the government reflects the quality of the people) - Polish cities and infrastructure is shiny and modern. Romanian infra seems at least 30% behind. You sense it from the moment your land in the airport. - Gypsies really caused a lot of damage to Romania's reputation abroad. - Overall lower sense of civic duty, discipline and reliability across the society. More 'leaving things till the last moment' and corner cutting mindset. (Maybe Poles are better with these things as they traded with Germans more historically). Despite the above, I still see deep value in certain Romanian assets vs Poland. If you followed my account for a while you know what I'm doing with my own portfolio (gradual rotation from Poland to Romania since 2022 👉 x.com/MacroJason/sta…) On top of above, there is a crucial area that I think Romania (and Balkans) has a higher potential of leading Poland in over the coming decades: geopolitical flexibility in a multipolar world. Will leave it to a future post.

I get why the eurocrats are importing unlimited "human capital" of questionable quality from wherever they can. The median will increase even faster and having 60-70% of your population as pensioners supported by 30% of the working adults will break the social contract

In 2025, the median age of population in the EU was 44.9 years. 👶 Highest in the EU: 🇮🇹 Italy (49.1) Lowest in the EU: 🇮🇪 Ireland (39.6) 'Demography of Europe – 2026 edition'👉 link.europa.eu/fdDvc9 ℹ️Map includes EU, EFTA and candidate countries with available data.

@crypt0lake The shit thing about North Africa is that you can’t import anything easily and we aren’t integrated in the world financial system but if that’s reformed I genuinely don’t see what else is restrictive

I see people from Europe dreaming to go to the U.S. (I know a few who earn top 10% salaries in France and still apply for the green card lottery) and see Americans leaving everything behind and to go live in the Mediterranean. Tens of thousands of people from the third world risking their lives to go to the West and Westerners living as expats in Bali, Morocco, Malaysia, etc. (Though I know the flows are asymmetric in scale) I think quality of life in (Med) Europe, America, or even many cities in the Third World isn't really that different if you have money. My French friends applying for the green card lottery want a higher career ceiling and salary multiples Meanwhile Americans moving to Thailand or Lisbon are often already financially comfortable and are now optimizing for pace of life, weather, food culture and lower stress. Different life stages and different utility functions, but it's interesting that no matter what stage you are in, you always can move somewhere else to improve, including to less developed countries than where you already are now And the highest stage / the endgame seems like a lot of money + life in a place like the Mediterranean, Bali, etc.

@rogesterone @Google literally one of the most disgusting platforms in existence and every person who worked in this and had any power to change things (probably only a few %) should most likely have their families executed, unfortunately (this is in order to teach them a lesson)
