But I want to emphasize is that China is not only building houses for the Chinese but they built house,infrastructure and industrial complexes from Africa, Asia to Middle East.

ya and all of you guys money are coming from us ( tech guy that has 400K per HH income ) LOL so we would see how this money flow changes thing, we are still in very very early of long massive adjustment.i remember during the hyperinflation era of 98 in Asia, it took 6-8 years to recover, not fully recovered, there're of course generational changes, for example, home ownership can only be done by baby boomers, and it's just impossible to buy house even if one making 100k.

@Brie Schmidt if you've never been to Europe or Asia, and want travel advice, please reach out.  

Foreigners, especially from Asia, are not used to paying the high income taxes we have here in the US, not to mention estate taxes.

I am actually based in Asia (but invest back in the States) and we are quite busy here with a lot of work.  

As an investor myself who has excelled at this part of the business (and who currently resides in Asia), I’m looking into piloting a unique, call-center service where the callers will be highly trained, knowledgeable and specialized.

Like you, I work long hours so I outsource my PM to a team of virtual assts in Asia for $4/hr - they’re amazing & I make a ton of 💰💰💰.

Do what’s difficult and life will be easy. »If you’re taking about countries that respect the property rights and especially those of foreigners, the general rule is that Latin America and Europe are ok and Asia is to be avoided.

I've also been looking at international investment properties in SE Asia and would love to talk with anyone who has any type of experience with this.

Ideally, I would like to do three trips a year, fitting in a Russia trip every two years, a Greek trip every two years, most vacations in Europe, some vacations in Asia, a small number of vacations in Oceania, South America, Africa.
