Travelling today is a bit challenging

Today we have some fairly large challenges in front of us should we want to travel. Those of us that are fortunate enough to be employed are probably living on a wage that keeps us alive but allows no extras of any kind such as travel.

Most will not want to take a chance because an awful lot of companies are actually setting you up for failure in some cases because as they back fill, they can hire at lower wages.

For instance, a friend of mine at another company was given a black mark on his record for clocking in (get this) 5 SECONDS late. He had never ever been late before. That is the kind of mindset that scare employees making it likely that only those that have retired on nice pensions or those that had the opportunity to invest at the correct times in the market will be traveling.

That being said, those of you that can travel should remember that when you are away you are NOT in your house. I saw some terrible things in the Philippines that happened because of an arrogant wealthy American that believed the world owed him everything because he had money.

Please do not make it harder for us to regain our credibility in the world. We have enough trouble and truly do not need anymore.

I have read a few good stuff here. Certainly worth bookmarking for revisiting. I wonder how much effort you put to create such a fantastic informative site.

I have put a fair amount of work into the research but I have been extraordinarily busy for a while. I hope to be back and updating regularly in the very near future.

I enjoyed your post. It’s a lot like college – we should absorb everything we can but ultimately you need to take what you’ve learned and apply it.

Thank you Sheena. Not only do you need to apply what you learn but to also remember that everyone has learned something and they may or may not agree with, which makes the art of compromise(which I believe our congress has become completely incapable of doing)very important and something that should never be forgotten.
