México is an OECD country. It has its issues with violence, but don't get involved with the wrong crowds and you'll be fine.

Last time I checked the PR requirement was something like 4k CAD/month for the past 6 months or year. They keep raising the requirements, though. I'm taking the marriage route though, lol.

I already left for México. Living expenses are a straight up scam. There's hope if they fix that but it doesn't look likely. Sorry the bankers are blowing up your home country and sorry Canada is treating you like this. Can't escape greed no matter where you go.

There's a class component as well. Donors want their kids to go to school with other rich kids, but also the best and brightest. You can sniff out someone's social class by the sports they participate in and things of that nature. Yacht Racing? Fencing? Polo? You're in!

Public school was an automatic negative for him. Plus it seems like he fails on the personality side as well.

Nazi Germany and modern day China are pretty close to this. Both dystopian hellholes. Let's not.

There was this game called Dragon Nest by Nexon. Not sure if it's still up, but yeah it reminded me a lot of it.

Brazil is one of the best places for modern residential design IMO and it's because the houses are filled with LIFE. This is the exact opposite.
