haha, mate, your not one of those light travellers are you. ;) Europe isnt the 3rd world, whilst tis good to be prepared, you can get almost everything you need. but it'll probably cost you more here. :eek:

A high alcohol tolerance. ;)

well, i'm sure it balances out, because cold approaches are far easier and less frowned upon in the US than the UK. Can't speak for rest of europe though.

This must just be a problem for you yanks. Over here in little old england, I would say 99% of the women i've ever pulled have been in a bar/club environment. I could relate to some of the things said, but only in specific commercial cheese clubs I never go to. If you go to the...

Not knocking you mate, its good that you want to do these exchange programs, but your a bit young at 15. Once you turn 18, there are laods more that you can do, try www.bunac.com to get soem ideas. I did work america a few years back, was great fun, had to work 6 days a week and long...

well, from your description and preferences I think you need to decide exactly what your priorities are: If you want a nice easy life, and everything to stay the same, then buy where you are. If you want to make money, sounds like your area has seen its high growth period, persoanlly I...

Although there can be a lot of truth in that statement, the thing is, what happens inbetween? Its not much help to all the people who lose out when interest rates rise, and their mortgage payments increase dramatically, but the value of their property which they overstretched themselves for...

how long have they been rocketing for though? is this a new phenomena, or is it 4 or 5 years old? What are interest rates over there?

Overtime yes, the trend is for it to go up, but house prices can also crash. This seems to happen in cycles over here in the UK, and i'm sure the US is not immune, just because it hasn't yet happened. I think the US house market is slighlty behind the res tof the world, I know Australia/New...

Before you do anything, check these links: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12239581/ http://www.housepricecrash.co.uk http://www.globalhousepricecrash.com/ The whole western world is in one massive house price bubble right now, personally i'm not rushing into anything. I'm not sure if...

haha, I don't think the US was the first to make drinking a hobby, you want to check out northern europe, especially the Uk and Ireland. Not that its anything to be proud of.... everything you said is correct. The only point I would make though, is its all down to personal preference,your...

The 2 best bands of all time! In this order: Oasis The Pogues I know you americans won't understand, but Oasis are 10 times bigger than any other band to come out of the UK.

It depends what suits you mate, and what your style is. I look good in peaked beanies, but theyre kind of rinsed now, I still picked up 1 in LA last week though because it was quite differen't that others people are wearing. But As rinsed as they are, girls still love you in them, girls are...

I've been to school, have a ba (hons) and a Msc degree, and am now working in that field trying to learn as much as possible and pass my professional qualifications. When I am qualified, I will then hopefully have a lot more opportunities. However, in the meantime, I would like to supplement...

I guess i will save up as much as I can, scour around for some stuff I reckon may sell, and get a small amount as a trial. Then try and sell it to as many people as possible.... I know that requires a lot more thought, but this is really just the ideas stage. Whatever I do, right now I am...

Cheers for the responses I'm not looking for the answer on a plate, just general ideas really, help brainstorming... For instance if someone was selling the latest gadget, and wanted to sell a 1000 to someone in britian, i.e, needs a distributor, thats the kind of thing I am interested in.

mate, get yourself a cool hat. You'll probably be one of the only people wearing one, and stand out straight away.

yeah, my friend basically lives off ebay. He's got a bit of a scam with the old copied cds etc... But I don't really like ebay, or fancy paying all the transaction fees.

I would like to start up some kind of small business, that only keeps me busy a couple of hours a week. Kind of a part time job, only one where I am the one making the big money. I know it sounds a bit to good to be true, but i'm sure people are doing it out there. Problem is, I have no...

I don't know about that. Aparrantly its scientifically proved that chocolate does not cause spots.... but whenever i've binged on a bit of chocolate, a few days later I will flare up. Science is never 100% correct, its only correct until the next theory disproves it. Personally...
