Good Post
I can not agree with you more. I have been doing the part time thing, back and forth from the USA/Nicaragua for 20+ years now. I have seen so many scammers (Ex-Pats) in my time it would make your head spin.
Also the Johnny come lately – wow what a group that is! I look forward to your postings and further insight to the “Ugly Gringo/European” and other experiences you have had.
I am married to a Nica and I find it very easy to “cut off” the extended family when it comes to $$$$$$ - I think what happens is one starts to feel guilty about “having” and you start giving to the point that you go broke financially, spiritually and mentally. I just tell them that I am only responsible for my wife, daughters and grandkids, other than that get a job.
