Places to move?

[juggernaut]

You might want to keep in mind that you are looking for housing in places that will most likly be a very very dangerous place to live. $2000 is that for the month or the year? And you know most countries like this do not allow you to own a firearm. So there are only two type of people who will have one their. The cops who will most likly be paid off to look the other way, and the criminals who will most likly view you as easy pickens if you are not from the country or know nothing about it.

I lived in asia for almost 10 years, Japan, HK and the Philippines. I would move back in a second if I could.

Thailand is a great place to live. Just hotter than most can deal with.

Are you serious? Unlike the US people do not carry firearms around with them. In Canada cops and criminals have them. Maybe a hunter during the right time of year and it is perfectly safe.

Of course you do live in New Jersey.

LOL well that was my point. If you go to Japan no one has a gun. It's illegal. So the only people who do have them are the bad guys and the cops. Being able to have a gun is a small factor in keeping some asshole from stealing or hurting you. When a criminal over here goes to rob a house he/she has a 50/50 chance that 2 feet in the door he will here the (click, click) from the shot gun down the hallway. In other countries you dont have that type of protection for yourself. But I guess you can always get a shit load of guard dogs.
Being an American and traveling to some places with my ex-government backround i'm just always paranoid about leaving this country for an extended period of time. There are still people who hate us. When I used to fly for my job I was required to leave all government ID's at home (never did). First thing bad guys do when they take someone is take there wallet to find out who you are. If you work for the government you are pretty much dead. It's just 10 years worth of dealing with crap like that, that makes me never want to travel anymore.
