very good video. the guy is right on when he ventured into social classes and differentiating between how the locals live and how you live. just remember this: these guys live in abject proverty all of their lives, but have access to plenty of dubbed American TV and movies. They all have preconceived stereotype of what you are made of, which is money, and plenty of it. all of your transactions and encounters with the locals will begin with that in their head. not a good way to live IMHO.

GuestI think that the benefit of living in a poorer country is the you have options, from the very cheap to the very expensive.
But don’t expect American standard of services unless you are willing to pay American level prices.
As far as housing goes, compared to the rest of the world, houses are cheaper in USA, for the square footage and level of amenities the houses provide. There are cheap parts of America such Indiana and Florida.
