If you could live anywhere

I am not saying Panama is the absolute cherry on the sundae, just my cherry.

As for New Zealand, I would be living halfway around the world from my friends and family and dont know anyone there. Choosing where to live is not just taxes and cost of living or some scenery.

Your other question is too subjective. Why choose Australia when you can choose Italy or Paris :D.

Quote from makloda:

That's true, I shouldn't generalize the entirety of South America into one homogeneous mass. I am sure there are pockets of western standards of life.

But let me ask from the other point of view: Why choose Costa Rica or Panama when you can choose Australia or New Zealand (let's imagine financial factors like taxes and cost of living are not at the top of the priority list)?

Again there is a difference in saying Costa Rica and Panama are #1 in the world, which I DID NOT say, calling them the shittiest places in the world lol.

Never been to Costa Rica so I will take your word for it. Panama is nice and has a nice balance of everything I would need.

Quote from SiSePuede!:

I think Costa Rica is one of the most overhyped shitholes I've ever been. It's like Hawaii but not nearly as beautiful. Panama is fairly nice, but it's nothing special...Costa Rica has zero cultural attributes and the food sucks..plus the beaches such and you've pretty much taken away every reason to live in Latin America.

As for that long.... it did hit me hard, still not enough to take me out of the game completely. 1 contract going south is not the end of the world.

I liked Panama...my main complaint about both Panama and Costa Rica is that there is a big lack of gorgeous Caribbean beaches. Panama has them in the Comarca De Kuna Yala but that's not the same as driving to the coast in Italy...:D

I really truly think Costa Rica is a huge shithole and I've been to some big shitholes. The people have no real culture, the food is bland, the beaches are nothing special, the roads are pure shit, etc. There's just nothing redeeming about Costa Rica other than the fact that it's not at war. It's sort of pretty, but nothing special that I saw that other places don't have.

And when I mentioned Hawaii before, I might have been misunderstood as I think the Big Island is one of the most beautiful places in the world and there are loads of things to do there.

Panama could be very livable for sure...I just would rather live in Europe...but I'd happily live in Panama....a lot of really beautiful things in a small country. I almost bought a house on Isla Contadora a bit over a year ago. :D
 
I live in Whistler BC. It's pretty sweet here. If your dirty rich you can buy a home by the lake overlooking the mountain.

It can get a little rainy so, if you got the big bucks you can spend 6 months here and 6 months somewhere else depending on the season.

I am still learning and that sometimes, many times costs $$$$. The important part is that I am getting better at trading and one day hopefully sooner than later make consistent profits from the market.
I did not ignore your advice, I took te trade before you dispensed it. If I had not let go of it, today at around 10:45 I would have turned a profit on that trade.
 
Check out Estonia. I live here, weather sucks (though better than GB) but taxes are quite low. Living is comparatively cheap (although buying real estate isn't), culture is European-like. Nothing dangerous living in the wilderness.

Hawaii has the most expensive gas in the US.

Nope, Hawaii = $3.47 and Alaska = $3.64

I was surprised too, just saw it on Bloomberg.
