The cultural experiences are so rich when we travel on a budget.

We starting talking and the topic of cultural differences came up.

Here I can feel comfortable surrounded by like minded folk, who are moving at their own pace and want to be successful and make money.It is also very enlightening and comforting to me anyway, to see so many different cultures and ethnicities represented here on this platform, and we are all here with pretty common goals, learn, network, interact and if we are lucky we also get to help someone out.Stuff can get crazy out there, I hate reading the news and listening to bi-partisan discussions about today's issues or non issues made into issues.Here it is peaceful, we all want to better our lives, interact and have successful investments! 

I believe recent "event"  have postponed the problem, but with more and more uniformed millennials reaching adulthood every day the issue will not be corrected until a crash.When that crash happens everyone will be impacted whether they prepare or not, and there's simply nothing that can get the masses of Tide-Pod eating, condom-snorting millenials to reject their pop-culture educations aside from that very same economic collapse they are hell-bent to see.In other words, I recognize that it is inevitable and that there's not a damn thing I can do about it.Until then I plan on being smart with money, investing in real estate, and avoiding wasteful debt on items that aren't income-generating assets... expert for my truck and pets lol

I doubt the high-minded justify their 'necessary' backpacking trip around Thailand or their European jaunt to become more cultured. 

Great weather, booming economy, nice restaurant, diversity, great culture.

YUP fully guided tour eat there its a culture unto its own that's for sure.. lots of super sharp kids walking around there with their dogs and playing Volleyball :)

Culture and the arts are what separate us from beasts.Prioritize and have a plan is all most of us are saying..

Perhaps it has something to do with our nation's culture of overindulging in everything they can get their hands on??? 

Until the celebrities that fly around in their private jets, are chauffeured around in their limousines, water their expansive yards of their mansions stop with their foolish lobbying of their fans to pass policies that have NO EFFECT on the celebrities but is carried on the backs of the working class, nothing will change.
