[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 1167818, member: 24302"] Google "how much is spent on illegal drugs each year" and you'll find according to a 2005 study by the DEA Americans spend about $65 billion a year and about $22 billion makes it's way south. That hardly supports whole nations, but it does make cartels filthy rich and influences politicians and law enforcement. And not all illegal drugs come from Latin America. Opium and Heroin originate in Asia. Meth is mostly local. But knowing drugs flow through Latin America to the States doesn't change the fact that there are many excellent places there populated by good people. And I know for a fact that I can have a good retirement there, something that'll be very difficult to obtain in the U.S.. FedEx has made me determined to find a way out, and I have. Do you honestly think they are ever going to change and give you a better retirement? They won't even pay enough to finance it yourself unless you go through great sacrifice to get there. Just because people like bbsam can afford to pay his way doesn't mean the rest of us will find a way. You may want to set aside preconceived notions and give living abroad a serious look. Modern technology makes it very easy to stay connected and you lose very little by living there instead of here and in some respects you gain quite a bit. [/QUOTE]
