    Funny you say that Will, USA is ranked 37th in the world for medicare, 2 places in front of Cuba. Where as the UK is around 17th.

    Also, you said you wanted a not too hot and not too cold climate. The UK fits that need exactly, its in the mid twenties in the summer and low teens in the winter.

    Also, what gun laws? Guns are illegal in the UK, even to own, unlike America.

    Those rankings are done for political purposes and do not in any way reflect reality.

    Sorry man, I've lived in the U.K. :rolleyes:

    Exactly. I would never again want to live anywhere the government treated me more like a slave than a citizen.

    They are not for political purposes they were calculated by the world health organization. Anyway, you wont find much better than the UK with the description your looking for. Also I dont see how not being allowed to have a gun makes you a slave, because of the UK's gun laws there is next to 0 gun crime, compare that to America's and you will be amazed.

    You got two choices mate. Australia or South Africa, both are similar climates (although Aus can get extremely hot). Woman are the best in the world (I can guarantee that). Governments are stable and non religious.

    I would say Aus as it is a first world South Africa. It is expensive compared to SA though.

    I absolutely love SA, will remain here till I die.

    Almost every South African I know has fled that country due to the civil instability caused by the current government.

    They all tell the same story -- rampant crime forced them to move to a part of the world where they were allowed to legally defend themselves against assault.

    You have way less people on your island. There is simply no comparison.


    Same thing.

    Did I mention that income tax is 10% in Bulgaria? This means that you will NOT pay more than 10% on all the profits which you register with your company per year.

    The dividend tax is 7%, this means that you can pour your income into a local LLC and then distribute it as dividend and you will only pay 7% to get your money legit and healthy....something which is no match for almost any other country in EU.

    In addition you can get your dreamhouse apartment in the capital Sofia for as low as 1200 EUR per sq/m....so this means 200 sq/m with mauntain view....for as low as 240,000 EUR....in the city centre.

    I have friends with real estate companies, if you are interested, just let me know.

    Actually those are Mikey Moore facts. They've been debunked by Dr. Gupta on CNN.;)

    Actually, the ranking stats wern't. He agree'd that it was awful and something needed to be done. I take it you missed the bit where moore came on and absolutley tore Gupta's attempt at debunking apart?

    We have about 60 million compared to your approx 300 miilion but in all honesty we have way less than one fifth of the trouble you have with guns (based on 60 against 300 million people.)

    There are plenty of dumbasses in both the U.K and the U.S.A, giving them access to own guns does not help things at all IMO.

    My brother-in-law just got back from there yesterday. He was doing some work out there.. Only thing is, they give him a $40/day living allowance for food, and to get a steak, it's like $60.. Next time he is out, I'll have to let you know so you can tell me where to send him.. ;)

    Thats wrong, the NHS is actually pretty good, it gets bad press because the English press only report the bad sides.
    Ive been in hospital three times, broken arm, fractured knuckle and later for treating the infection that came from the saliva when fracturing the knuckle (was in a fight).
    How much would that cost me in the US? Ive heard as much as people paying $20k for a broken leg..its all free here. I waited max 12 hours to get a bed at my hospital each time i went in.
