I can gaurantee from personal exprience that Costa Rica does not out rank the United states in this catergory.....so it seems the rest of the rankings would also be somewhat wrong or biased....
 
Quote from damir00:

that's only part of the equation. the other part is how your neighbors are doing, if life sucks for them, the trickle-down effect ensures it will suck for you too.

ie...Rio.

I see it as I will make my neighbors life that much better......:D

I thought we were a group of successful traders here earning 6 figures+? My contributions on lifestyle and "best place" were based on this assumption. I may have been wrong.

Agree...

But, most threads do tend to diverge a bit...
and then fall back in line...

All the more reason for you and interested others
to hang in there and continue to keep it on focus. :)

No kidding, I don't see Americans lined up at Costa Rican hospitals for triple bypasses.

Gimme a break

That list is so full of crap it makes me think of the totally useless United Nations (useless politicians at the trough at our expense)

The United States is one of the few countries where you can achieve success if you so desire.

If your neighbors life sucks...perhaps he should put away that six pack of beer, drop the remote and get off his fat butt and get or create a job, instead of expecting society to take care of him.

(Or, he can move to Canada...the system is set up there for the lazy slugs of society, unemployment, welfare, healthcare and a pension plan when you are too old to continue doing nothing).

Unfortunately, the working stiffs in Canada pay big time for the slugs.
 
hope you have asbestos underwear. :)

Only this was the sin of your sister Sodom: arrogance! She and her daughters had plenty of bread and untroubled tranquility: yet she did not support the poor and needy...so I removed them, as you saw.

Quote from onewaypockets:




Speaking of Moab, Utah, I have been keeping my eye on a house there. I actually don't know much about the area, and haven't ever been there. Just trying to look around on the possibilities. Here is a link. http://www.moabproperties.com/listings/l0031.html

Good hunting...onewaypockets

Moab is GREAT! If you're going to visit there, it would be more enjoyable, but busier, if you go in the early spring or late fall. If you go in the middle of summer it can get quite hot. There is a really cool motel off of Main Street called the Gonzo Inn, each room has its own "theme". Best beer and pizza: Eddie McStiffs. If you ride, you have to do Slickrock trail, a little busy, but there is nothing else like it. Take a drive down the river, great scenery. Volkswagon just rented out a hangar out at the airport and stuffed it with their new SUV. They flew in dealers from around the US so they can test drive it where some of the commercials were filmed.
 
Quote from Lobster:

Just read that in Sweden the suspect in the murder of a high ranking politician is innocent and being released.

Where else can you find a country that would release an innocent man in this situation? Imagine Colon Powell was murdered and they caught a suspect a couple of days later. Do you think they would let him go a week after that if they found out he was innocent?

Besides, Sweden has very long daylight hours in summer.

Of course, there is also the other half of the year...
Is this the same suspect who plunged the knife into his victim in the middle of a department store and stabbed her to death in front of all the onlookers? On what grounds was his 'not guilty' (which is vastly different from 'innocent') plea found?
 
Interesting how Spain seems to always be among the top rated areas of these places to live, travel, and health (ouch!) lists....

Who'd 'a figured that?

(At least among us who aren't that worldly - yet!)

Come to think of it, for years now, Sean Connery has extolled the virtues of living on the Spanish coast...

Yep, Spain is incredibly attractive for quality of life. Is there anyone who has lived or lives there now, who can provide the rest of us untraveled folks more insight on the beauty of Spain??

Spain is an awesome place .....This is by far the best Country I have ever visited...the people there know how to live..and the country offers lots of natural beauty....you want a lunch break try 2-3 hours of lunch where you are forced to partake becuase no one else will answer the other side of ur business call and the stores are shut down.....:D.....
