    1. Not yet. IMF have reevaluated their GDP estimates and according to the newest data Poland has not passed Switzerland yet, although it’s very close. $1,146,911 vs $1,134,248

      Do you feel rich though ? As with rising costs of living there is not much difference imho.

      20th Economy in the world … all thanks to not letting the right wing imbeciles convince Poles years ago, during the EU referendum, to vote against joining the EU. Same imbeciles today, call for leaving the EU.

      Getting there. For now it’s still virtual, accounting wealth.

      Most poles work for foreign companies, and those companies transfer 99% profit abroad, can’t stop laughing…

      Poland was in the global top twenty GDP wise in the past tbh.

      As a normal citizen, I would love to benefit from this so called great economy.

      It’s more due to size than actually being impressively wealthy. That’s why India is part of the club.

      Poland hits a sweetspot where it’s quite chonky for an European country, while having decent development.
      Austria for example is significantly richer per person than Poland, but it’s GDP is only half of Poland’s, because their population is significantly lower.

      If Poland if wealthy than that means the rest of the World must be doing badly.

      Since GDP in Europe should include black market value – I don’t believe in any ratings based on GDP

      American here. Just came back from two weeks in Poland. Split the time between Rzeszów and Warszawa. The quality of life in your country is amazing from what I saw. I’m lower middle class in the US, but my friend in Poland I spent my trip with is definitely on the poverty side of things in your country and their quality of life for their income still impressed me. I really wish my kids were growing up in Poland instead of the US. Of course Poland has issues. Everywhere does. But you guys aren’t living to to be nothing else than ground meat lubricating the gears of out of control capitalism like we all are here in the US. Everyone except the lucky elite, of course.

    13. It’s not a high lvl of polish economy, its worlds economy weakness 😉

      This doesn’t translate into how wealthy Poles are. We are the West’s economic colony.

    15. anoma-lokaris on

      Yes!!! Look how the numbers are growing worker! What? You spend ⅓ of your paycheck for your rent? Nooo don’t think about it, look how high the numbers are📈📈📈

      Classic polish complaining in the comments xD pure entertainment. Completely unfounded.

      I live here in Poland, don’t try and act like most of you aren’t living in a nice safe area with walkable clean streets, own or rent nice apartments, have good jobs and take multiple vacations a year.

      There isn’t one polish adult I know who doesn’t indulge in going out to eat often, or going out to parties, or entertaining friends at home… full spread of food and drinks, you name it. Not to mention the amount of countries everyone here has visited… If you can afford to travel across Europe and pay for these vacations in Euros then you’re doing WELL.

      Not to mention the amount of new cars here and electronics, nice new builds etc.

      Polish people will tell you they don’t live well and they don’t consider Poland to be a rich country, then anyone from the west comes here and can see they are simply complaining.

      I don’t know a single person who is truly living in the level of poverty I’ve seen out in Canada. I’ve virtually never seen more than a small handful of homeless people here…

      And the most important part- YALL GET THIS LEVEL OF LIFE WITH 20+ DAYS VACATION and paid sick leave, plus dozens of religious holidays.

      It is amazing here, don’t let the Polish complainers convince you otherwise.

      These are only excel numbers. They never show real situation of ordinary people

    18. Tak, wyprzedziliście Czechy gospodarczo w październiku 2024, do dziś pamiętam te wydłużone miny w czeskich mediach.

    19. Devilteh on

      Yeah we are so wealthy that I’d shit myself if I’d have enough food to do that (it’s an intentional exaggeration fck off)

    20. well, it’s time to be net contributor :> we have some new members to be taken care of. I hope we can embrace and understand how mutual help works :>

      By keeping out the bad element the national average has to be higher.

      The bad element is people not born there no matter what their ethnicity.

    22. Jackson_Polack_ on

      It’s definitely a good thing, but I don’t think it’s a reason to be overly excited about just yet. GDP doesn’t necessarily convert to quality of life of the citizens. It might, with smart politics, but it could be also consumed by the small group of the wealthiest, like in the US – number one GDP worldwide, yet regular people don’t even get the absolute minimum of what a state should provide, like universal healthcare, policing, civil infrastructure.

      People here looking for any flaw poland can have too young to remember 2006. 15% unemployment, just that year half milion people left country. 

      Look at the photos from that time how people were dressed, then look now.

      We were the peasants of europe and young and old alike were desperate to leave the country to make the lowest wage in the West.

      We have it so good right now, it’s unbelivable, its just people are getting used to good things and forget what it used to be.

      As for expensive rent – people in the 90s mostly didnt even have option to rent even if they wanted to. This just didnt exist. Young people after marriage went on to live with their parents. What we have now, was our parents dreams. People were leaving Poland, leaving their families to have abroad what now we have here.

      Poland has just the 20th strongest economy or biggest to be exact. Poland will be wealthy maybe in the next 20 or more years. If it will keep up the good work and come with new ideas for development. We need to stop being the cheap workforce and be much more innovative if we truly want to become a rich nation.

      Proud and happy for our neighbours.
      Just one more reminder what could have been if partinions of Polish-Lihuanian Commonwealth would have been repeled.
      Hopefully we learned our lessons

    26. It is done mostly thanks to FDI. We are still subcontractor to western Europe.

    27. POLACKdyn on

      Aha, zajebiście, too bad regular folks like me and you cant ever feel all that wealth and are instead left with crazy Steam prices and even crazier action figures prices. Cant even afford to be a collector anymore.
