I know we all have our dreams of earning dollars, living the american dream.
Or perhaps of euros, our minds doing quick conversions and thinking of all the things we could buy...
I have watched a few documentaries of "poor people" in England/America and they still seem to live better than me (I thought I was middle classed). Their fridges are always full, they have take outs whereas I can not last until payday.
How do you secure employment in these promised lands? I work hard, I actually enjoy working, however have no skills which are "WOW!", come work for us.
I do not want to become a millionaire (actually, if I am honest I would love to), I just want to live in a normal country and do normal things without the fear of crime etc... I dream of paying taxes that are used to better the citizens....

Yeah, I agree, there are lots of talented people all over the world applying for positions every day. If our tax money was used to generate jobs and educate people it would be a different situation. Its sad when families become fragmented due to economic reasons. All my siblings have already left.

@Rhombus That's really bad. I hope you can find other ways to earn. What we do here is find online jobs so we can make ends to meet.
