    Where exactly did I say Europe? Plenty of well paying jobs elsewhere. Lived in both Africa and Asia (still there, actually) for 2 decades and the money you can make there beats Europe by a wide margin. Educational requirements are low to nonexistent, depending on the region.

      And you managed to get even MORE out of touch.

      You can earn more money in Africa as an unskilled laborer than Europe? What a ridiculous statement.
