[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 820429, member: 24302"] Actually headed to Peru. Can rent a decent apartment for $150 a month, DirecTV for $50 a month, mild year round temps, a week's worth of fruit and vegetables for $10. I'll have a fixed pension of $1100 a month before taxes and can get by there for less than $700. Can't do that in the States. Oh, will have Internet, a Kindle for reading, and there's a new 8 screen Cinemark near where I'll live that plays the latest movies in English with Spanish subtitles. Most Americans have been conditioned to believe certain things about Latin America. Fact is that they've progressed and moved on, and have different perspectives on how things should be priced. The U.S. is certainly better infrastructure wise, but so what if it has the best of everything if you can't afford it. What matters is does an area meet your needs at a reasonable price. And I guarantee you that the overwhelming number of Latinos aren't squatting miserably in mudhuts with no electricity or running water. [/QUOTE]
