These threads always crack me up a bit. You don't realize financial security by succumbing to excessive material desires. The closest most of you guys are going to get to this kind of lifestyle is a rental villa on your honeymoon, less you want to be one of those people in the Wall Street Journal making $500,000 a year yet still complaining about being "poor". I honestly don't see what all the allure is about anyway.

Dual-citizen, nice! So what are you investing in, Mexican rental property?

I'm on the same track as you. Once my passive income gets bigger, I'll definitely be spending more time down in Mexico. Winters would be excellent to spend down there, I know all about how cold it gets in Canada.

What is your opinion on Mazatlan vs. Puerto Vallarta? I've heard Maz is cheaper, but I haven't been there so I don't know. I do like PV, though.

>> No.536531

I bought land that I'm developing (rental studios) a 50% tortilla factory,50% car wash and 30% of handicraft store .

I personally like mazatlan better, is cheaper, less touristy, there is lots of industry. Puerto Vallarta is the San Francisco of Mexico (lots of gays) specially in the romantic zone , the real estate is very over priced due to limited build-able land,less industries other than tourism and is more densely populated. This being said mazatlan have more drug cartel related problems than Vallarta. Personally I always keep a low profile so mazatlan would be the obvious choice.

For what is worth mazatlan have the nicest people I have ever meet and Chris don't get me started on the food

That is a good idea, San Miguel is a great place, very conservative and full of elite upper class Mexicans (mostly intellectuals,artist and old money) but if you are North American, you will find that mazatlan is more welcoming and if you live in a place like el Cid or the Cerritos area the transition will be easier ( plenty of Americans and Canadians live there) also the housing is all North American standard and I don't know if you speak Spanish, but in mazatlan most people speak some level of English , while in San Miguel you will be expected to speak Spanish (if you live there) like I said is a very conservative place and they frown up on immigrants that don't speak the language

I am very aware it is just an anime and it is childish to draw inspiration from, I am also aware Griffith was supposed to be a caricature of douches who tread on other people while Guts was the real hero all along, however it did kick me off in the right direction, it taught me to stop giving a fuck about petty shit and focus on what is important. I soon discovered that people don't resent some antisocial nerd putting himself in places he doesn't belong and they have a kind of quiet respect for someone who is genuinely focused on a goal, this motivated me further.

Living in a beautiful, BIG house with a nice, big garden somewhere in calm northern cali suburb, probably in Palo Alto. Earning $500,000 - $1M a year only through managing my investments (spending maximum 2 hours a day). Also I would like to have noticeably contributed to the advancement and betterment of the human race through technology and science somehow (probably something related to space or renewable energy) just so I can spend all this time relaxing without feeling like I wasted my time.

Also want a nice wife whom I truly love, two sons and a daughter that I can mentor and a good, sturdy, loyal dog. I want to spend my time doing the things I love: Boxing, skiing, riding my motorcycle, travel, read, hike, surf, longboard and just relax.

lol this is what everyone in Northern California wants and no one hasa. Besides the tech industry, the south bay is a shithole and is getting worse by the day. You cant find a more overpriced place to live in. Land is stupid expensive.

For that much cash you buy acres of prime vineyards in Sonoma county and drink wine and do all those things (hike, surf, longboard, relax). Meanwhile, you get way more then you pay for, the contractors are used to doing up estates, and the poor people around you are not being pushed out, robbing you and actually have jobs.

I like Mexico too, but that crime shit is no joke. If people there find out you have a lot of money they will find a way to take it.

What's wrong with that? How do you actually make the "world" a better place without having money? I mean, what's wrong with the objective of "I want to become rich so I can help the world become a better place."

why can't you liberals just fucking understand this. Being rich =/= being a bad person. Being rich simply means you have a lot of power. Power can be used both for good and for evil.

Fucking hippies

That's not what anyone here is saying faggot.

What I'm saying is that a person whose sole goal in life is to become rich is not a good person.

Bill Gates wanted to change computing
Henry Ford wanted to make great automobiles
MIchael Jordan wanted to be the world's best basketball player

Jordan Belfort wanted to be rich

See what I'm saying here?

And to my point earlier, advancement in no way "helps" the poor or the condition of mankind. All our cars, and planes and medicines really haven't effected our ability to enjoy life and prosper. It's just created a greater and more specific stratification between the "haves" and "have nots". If you think because you donate money to some cause you are really "helping" those less fortunate you are wrong. The real contribution is time and effort, something that requires exactly $0.

>Technological and logistical advancement hasn't helped the poor

Maslows hierarchy of needs from most to least fundamental
>Food/water
>Shelter/security
>Social acceptance
>Social recognition
>Self actualization

Even the poorest of poor in the Anglosphere/Europe/East Asia have the first three needs met. This is because tech/economic/logistical advancement has made food, water, and basic shelter really fucking inexpensive. To pretend otherwise is facetious.
