How old are you is a common question when new friends meet, but then between true friends, age matters not. I think the more important information is something that cannot be asked nor answered but must be observed over time to know and that is what kind of person are you. Age has little bearing on the quality of your character, other then older people tend to have more patience and live a relaxed life style because after some years of running around chasing their tails, they have learned that it is far better to sit under the apple tree then run down to the bar for a rum drink.
Comparisons of living styles between the USA and Latin America are often made by those who have moved from one location to the other. I moved from the middle class comfortable lifestyle of California to Costa Rica in 1991. At first I was distressed because many of the things I had become accustomed to were not readily available: quality vitamins, books, libraries, inexpensive cars, good roads and secure neighborhoods.
The western countries are all in deep financial crisis. The banks are full of cash but the people have none. Governments, companies and people have debt to the banks who are not forgiving. Bankers are earning unprecedented bonuses while more and more citizens go jobless homeless and hungry. Politicians have no love for citizens and respond only to their masters - the bankers.
I was reading today how in Los Angeles a few days ago the FDA and LA Police department arrested three people on conspiracy and other charges because they sell raw unpastuerized milk and cheese. Unbelievable. I can only imagine that someone does not want the people to have access to healthy foods. Thank goodness here in Costa Rica we have lots of natural milk and cheese and eggs and meats as close as the farm next door. I do not drink milk, but I love the home made cheese I buy from Miyela who hand milks her cow every morning and makes fresh raw cheese that I buy in the afternoon !
I have lived in Costa Rica for most of the past 20 years. Sure there are lots of problems with this country and we expats are always talking about where is the best place to live out our lives in peace and comfort. We discuss the nearby countries like Panama and Nicaragua, Ecuador and Peru, and faraway romantic spots like Thailand and India, even hong kong or China. But when it comes right down to it, there is no better spot on the planet today then Costa Rica. For one thing, all countries have their share of problems, corruptions, overpriced items and screwed up people.

Now that we have a new US President elect we expect to be saved from the madness of the previous administration. From all the destructive and fraudulent wars, the bankrupt federal government, the emerging police state, and the spiraling inflation which is quickly destroying the good life.
