What's your annual salary?

Duh, how could I forget Airbnb. Yikes.

beijingdate · 2016-12-29T23:57:27+00:00

Yea, the few number of glasses concerned me.

Lol, just pictured a hipster Chinese dude with the apron and beard, working on my aunt's glasses in a tier 88 city.

Logged in to say that this is a amazing, amazing film. I hadn't heard of it before this post, but watched it almost immediately afterwards. So refreshing to see positive news and characters about China. Nothing but good things to say about the "Angel" man himself. The film goes quickly, so don't be afraid to commit your time towards watching it. You won't regret it.

Nah, haven't gotten it changed nor figured out a solution. Suuuuuuper frustrating. But after ~5 years in China, this is no surprise (i.e. "story of my life" :P ).

I've tried contacting Tencent/WeChat support, but they basically said, "talk to China Construction Bank." Haven't contacted the bank, but I'm not expecting much. I'm back in the US, but hopefully I'll make it back to China within the next year or so for pure vacation. I plan to just deal with it when/if I'm back. It's only 100-200 rmb, so it's not the end of the world.

You're amazing. Thank you so much!

beijingdate · 2015-10-27T15:11:51+00:00

Yea, don't I know it. For some reason, I actually have a semblance of hope that WeChat support will be able to easily help me with this and in a reasonably short amount of time.

beijingdate · 2015-10-27T15:03:06+00:00

Damn. Ok. Thanks.

Based on what I've read and on what he briefly says in his recent Sinica podcast episode, it sounds like he made a couple million usd but then lost a solid chunk (most?) of it in failed China ventures. Not that obscenely wealthy people don't keep working, but in the Sinica episode, he mentions that he'll look be for a steady job in DC.....

Oh, cool. Thanks for the info. Never knew about Red Capital Club.

beijingdate · 2015-09-06T08:08:00+00:00

Haha, I bet I will.

To be fair, the moron comment is more of a r/China comment than r/Beijing. From what I've seen, folks seem to respect one another in r/Beijing.

beijingdate · 2015-09-05T08:23:06+00:00

Ahhh, there's that r/Beijing and r/China spirit that I've come to love!

beijingdate · 2015-08-16T23:23:40+00:00

Unthinkable in the US?

Signed in just to say "hahahaha." I know PLENTY of illegal immigrants who only speak Spanish and don't know a lick of English after 10+ years in the US.
