Where's the rest of this love-story ? Did 'bcj' and 'wiganer' get a room ?

and folks,

let's not get confused on the meaning of bcj's term, "unemployment". it isn't THE paycheck he's receiving weekly or monthly from the government as most americans might suspect from the way he wrote it, but his only and true meaning of the word outright.....UNEMPLOYMENT.

bcj, a few more days and you will have hit the 4 month mark, right? maybe it calls for a celebration of sorts.

and i don't know who this SB person in gangnam is who you're talking about, but SA in gangnam says (and i paraphrase):

"while ___ is bragging about making $2,000 in the market while back in america, i have made $12,000 in that same time frame alone just by keeping my job." (and mind you, this was a month ago when he said that)

That's funny, qcat79/RM.

I remember how cheap you were back in the Busan Days of 2007. Getting out of taxi hundreds of yards before the apartment we both lived in to save 100 won. Walking from Heyundae beach to Jangsan cause you didn't want to pay 1800 won on a taxi. Never buying new clothes. Buying the cheapest, crappiest Korean food you could find.

There are things more important than making the big bucks in Korea. How about spending the holidays with your family on US soil? Feels good, I must admit.

Anyway, last time I checked, I have an interview for a decent looking management position stateside. As for the money situation...I had an uncle die half a year ago, and after legal services and some waiting time, got about a cool $50,000. Funny how life works out.

Enjoy your second year in Asan.

look who's the big man....

......bragging about getting a cut of inheritance are you??? you obviously know nothing about the value of money, or time spent working for it or how to spend it wisely. i mean, the only debt you only knew was $5,000 on your credit card. let everyone know on here that it was your parents that paid for your college education, you spoiled brat.

but just like most lottery winners in america, we'll see how far that $50k goes (assuming you really did get it).

why don't you tell the nice folks on dave's how i used my savings from 2007 and took TWO vacations to thailand, spent another TWO months back home and actually passed my CELTA in the meantime.

shall we enlighten everyone about your 4 week experience in prague?

@qcat79

Grandparents paid for college. Like you know everything about me RM. What is this "Prague experience" you're talking about? RM, you need to know before you go and actually do your research on vacation destinations before you travel, so you won't end up in a hotel eating pringles or walking in parks taking pictures of people in front of cafes off in the distance whilst eating the cheapest food you can get, like you did every time you went to China and southeast Asia. You have quite an eye for photography...and by that I mean really, you don't.

I'm making something of my life back in the homeland, and you're jealous. Forida: the California of the East Coast. You're missing out, RM. I'm looking forward to working in the private sector again, and gaining some more management experience. Turning 30 never felt so good -- I feel like Aari Gold from 'Entourage.' At least robots can never outsource leadership and hardwork.

Thinking about buying a Nissan Juke or a Kia Soul next week. That's the car to cruise in from St Pete to Ybor, right here in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. Want to fly back and help me choose the color? :p

[qcat79]

no, i don't enjoy pringles. actually, i'm more of a foodie than you'd ever be. every had real chinese food??? last time you told me, you were hunkering down in mcdonald's in beijing.....talking about travelling skills.

i mean the prague experience where you failed your CELTA on the third week and lounged around in your dorm room until the end of week four....THAT PRAGUE EXPERIENCE. so pathetic.

buying a new car are ya?? like i said, go through that inheritance. you deserve it.

we'll see how long you last in a management position at some shoe store, al bundy.
