Wal-Mart de Mexico is a sub-division of the headquarters for Wal-mart in Bentonville, Ark.
W/M de Mexico handles all of the Central and South America operations to include the stores in Costa Rica
🙄
IF!!!! this happened in Mexico it also happened in Costa Rica
very true kwhite1:
what we call POOR countries leve completely different from us in the USA. I know families that live with a $1,000.00 a month income in Costa Rica just because of the safety net of their extended families.
My wife has 6 other brothers and sisters and the meals for the Holidays are extravagant. Everybody brings in a meal or all those ingredients to make one and everyone is supposed to bring according to their financial input.
they all enjoy the food equaly even if 1 member gave $100.00 and another $10.00 and both eat the same food regardless of the amount invested.
don’t ask me what I have to give but I am in their EYES one of the 1%, LOL
the young ones eat first then the teenagers and then the women at last the men
all this time the kitchen is a whilwind of activity besides the cooking you have the partial cleaning
PS: what does this have to do with Gold and Silver?? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
watch these numbers both in population and years
they all belong to Costa Rica
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indigenous_peoples_of_Costa_Rica
in 1502 the population of indians was Considered to be 104,000
by 1550, only 20,000
and a fact remains that they had lived in these lands for over 10,000 YEARS
have you lived 10 years in Costa Rica??
It all depends what part of the Country you choose to live in. I have been looking at the Tilaran – Lake Arenal area. It is quite different from San Jose and surrounding areas.
Cheap real estate compared to other places, quite unexpensive for food, not congested, a simpler life style, less petty crime, etc.
On the other side; you do not have a large selection of goods and products to buy but in my Golden years I don’t need the night club life (been there-done that).
Coffe in the morning while reading the newspaper never worry about the 8 to 5 clock, retirement MODE for me.
as an example;
many years ago while working for PPG my boss told me that I would never get a promotion to a higher level
I asked him WHY???
he told me;
you are not married
don’t have a mortgage
no kids and NO DEBTSbasicaly he told me that I had nothing the company could hold me HOSTAGE for and why promote someone that COULD eventually leave for the competition with all that knowledge
the more debt the more rules the system places on you
Victoria:
I understand your principles and will give you an example on why you are HALF right.
My oldest son who by the way was born in CR came to the USA with a tica and 3 years latter had 2 girls, the first one was born blind (septo optic displacia).
WELL!!!! he gets $800.00 from SSA for her blind daughters disability, free Medicare (priceless), $600.00 for section 8 for housing and $500.00 in food stamps.
$1,900.00 a month for FREE and it is TAX deductible
then the “IDIOT” decided to send his wife to CR and keep the girls and found another woman and got her pregnant.
Should I continue??
guess who pays for all his entitlements??
the Tax payers
don’t get me wrong, I just gave you an example were you are right but does that mean ALL of them do not deserve a helping hand
Yes that is fair but answer me one question.
Do you live in CR as a legal resident??
if you do then you have to pay La Caja
ask the CR goverment for a refund on your money
think again before you post
Scott:
the lawsuit was asked to be DISMISSED, read the 1st page the rest is point, counter points by the lawyers
there could be an apeal but Paragon has more $$$ to pay high power lawyers than the other side
it is really complicated but at the end Paragon will win!!
“ORDER GRANTING MOTIONS TO DISMISS WITHOUT PREJUDICE”
by the defendants (Paragon)they can keep the courts BUSY for years on this issue while the Plaintiff (acusers) will have to spend $ to $ against the other side
black and white scenario; unless there is a miracle Paragon is off the hook and if they lose then they can go into a bankrupt chapter, whichever they decide
long explanation
Paragon is off the HOOK
RACE, I posted about different races, different religions, different genders
and a correction is in order: Obama is half white
the Constitution is dated September 17, 1787, today it is November 12, 2012
and about personal responsibility: the 1% is better of the 99% don’t ask me WHY the Koch brothers, Mitt, Karl Rowe the Donald, Cheney (Halliburton) and many others have much more $$$ than they deserve
the worst Recession in 40 years created by 2 unfunded wars and close to 20 millions out of work while they (HINT) they outsource jobs to CHINA???
all those people against entitlements in the East coast because of Sandy are SCREAMING for FREE help from the Goverment
what is it going to be; NO MORE FREE $$$ from the Goverment or WAIT A MINUTE, now I need it because it is an emergency
does that not make the same for the 47%
waiting for your reply, make it a good one next time and make it from the USA not from a far away country where you live comfortably
WOW!!!!
the elections in the USA happened 6 Nov on a Tuesday
and there was a CLEAR winnertoday is the 12th and we are talking about politics and percentages
don’t forget 70% of the black vote
68% of the Hispnics
66% of the Jewish
55% of the white women
45% of the white malesvoted to re-elect Mr. O
on another NOTE; listen carefully, the Hispanic vote will be 20% of the total USA population and Texas will be a BLUE state by 2012
I listen to all sides but understand where this Country is headead
If the Republicans think that another boat of white Protestants are going to land in Plymouth Rock in another Mayflower ship then they are in for a BIG surprise
I have the Stiebel Eltron on demand water heater for 5 years now without a problem. Mine is a 220 volt and works with 2 baths and the kitchen. More than once there have been more than 10 people in my house (not counting the dog) and never did we have a problem with hot water.
Stiebel Eltron has 3 models. One is a 110 volt for the kitchen and 2 versions of the 220. The prices in the USA ranges from $150.00 to $250.00 in these models.
I discovered them when I lived in Germany because nobody in that country or Europe uses a water tank heater. They are compact, efficient and cheap.
that is my story on the hot water on demand, your milage COULD vary
you are required to let the Embassy know when you visit a foreign country for an extended time, just in case you want to go home when the AK-47’s open up
or you get arrested
or you get pretty sick
or notify your next of kin that you are DEAD
you were the one with the 15,000 number and they have been counted by Imigracion based on their database
residency, CHECK and you are counted
perpetual turist and you are not counted but can stay for years
over 1 million US citizens vist Costa Rica every year and that is a fact from the State Departmemt, they don’t keep tabs on Nicaraguans, Colombians, etc..
the fact that I have property in CR comes to play in should I be counted or not since they have my information and am not renting, it is called cross reference
my wife is Costa Rican and I DO NOT need to leave the country every 90 days since the marriage certificate has been placed with the CR GOV.
