Cry babies

4 years ago

11years ago when we moved here the small expat population were kind of adventurers. They knew things would be much different than where they came from. They knew they were moving to a developing country that was very poor.
What's happened since. All I see is a bunch of crying about how things are so terrible.
Why all the crying? Most posters seem like they just can't fit in here. Is there theft? Yes, on a grand scale. That's what happens in poor countries. Try moving into a well to do neighborhood in the states that borders a poor neighborhood and see what happens.
Not planing for your death when your here alone. Try doing the same anywhere else. The buzzards will be circling.
As far as wives having no rights if the husband dies. That's B/S. All you have to do is plan and the wife looses nothing.
Use to be folks who moved here were adventurous, now just a bunch of whiners.
Yes Ecuador has many blemishes, but my 11 years here have been wonderful because I planned. You crybabies need to go back to where you came from. This has become our home and we are very comfortable here.
As far as walls, what do you think gated communities in the states are.
