[quote=deadzone]A preferable place (although much farther away) where standard of living is better, the woman are much hotter and everything is way cheaper, is Brazil. Coastal areas of Brazil are so much cheaper to stay and much nicer than Mexico or Central America.
Be warned, outside of the major cities few people speak English (or even Spanish for that matter) so you’ll have to learn Portugues, which shouldn’t be too hard if you are living there.[/quote]
Brazil is not without its problems though. The crime rate in cities like Sao Paolo and Rio is very high. While doing research on Rio as a potential vacation destination I was a little concerned by all of the security warnings even at highly populated tourist spots.

SmellsFeeshyParticipant[quote=flu]I shorted it at $39…
Imho.. RIMM is dead… Yes, they might be able to hold onto their business customer base. BUT, they clearly are not going to be a smartphone leader unless they have a major architecture overhaul.
Apple didn’t kill rimm and nokia alone…A lot of the damage done was from Android….[/quote]
Nice call on shorting at $39. Definitely it is a combination of iPhone and Android that is killing RIMM.
At this point though perhaps it’s too risky to make a long/short play. I could see it going either way. I see it’s currently up around 7.5% today. Guess I missed the boat on this one again as usual.
