baby travel systems in south africa image
Chris
I'm currently an OSU student pursuing an undergraduate degree in Marketing and International Business but I may change to International Business and Finance. I am currently looking at leaving the states to find a job because the idea of foreign travel has always excited me and being someone who appreciates a good challenge I would like to work hard. I am looking for a business carrier in some country other than the United States, preferably a country with a larger manufacturing base than the States because the level of consumption here is simply unsustainable and I for-see the population aging and there being a large demand for jobs but the US entering a catastrophic depression because of the lack of consumer spending in the market. After the baby boomers finish retiring their peak spending years will be over and i'm for-seeing a massive withdrawal of business in the US.
This long confusing reason is really the main reason I would like to find a job in another country that is more economically sustainable and not basing their economy on the US dollar. Countries that fit this criteria that I have looked at are primarily non EU countries and not China. Australia, Turkey, and perhaps someplace like Johannesburg are like this so could someone please tell me if my ideas make sense and how I could find a job in another country if I don't have ties with anywhere but the US or Turkey?

I see.....I have been contemplating the same thing for many reasons for ~ 2 years now and I have come across many college students who have the same concerns but do NOT under any circumstance want to talk about it in detail.What you have laid out is also the main reason why Medical jobs are currently on the rise Nursing and Doctors are going to be in demand over the next ~20 years.........but what about beyond that ?
I have come to the conclusion that perhaps it is best to immigrate to a country that has the following:
1.Responsibility to its citizens
2.Has political and financial freedom
3.Speaks English
4.Has a system somewhat close to that of the US.
5.Responsible Universal health-care
6.Will be around strategically close to the BRIC countries but not influenced by them.
Australia or New Zealand fits this criteria.Your South Africa idea is NOT a good idea and you should check out the Britishexpat.com forums to see why.Your degree in International Business and Finance can also open a lot of doors around the world but mainly in developing countries.

20th bday??
Jkerns
Ok, so I know its not a HUGE deal, but I haven't celebrated a birthday since I was like ... 8.
Other than like dinner, I have a pretty lame birthday past. So this year, I want to do something fun.
I am turning 20 Feb 8th, and I want to go somewhere that my bf and our friends wont be bored at (they are all 24-28yrs) I am the baby of the group :(
I have NO idea what to do, or where I can go for my birthday, so any ideas??
We can either stay in the bay area, or go to Sac or whatever, I have friends all over the place, so traveling is not an issue.

Right, this is what you do for a "bring and braai" as we call it in South Africa:
Get one of your friends to sponsor their house. Somewhere that's big, without breakables everywhere and with a pool if you can.
Get a sound system from someone and burn a few MP3 CDs with your favorite tracks on them. Remember: Your birthday, your music!
Get a BBQ grill and a lot of wood. Get mixers for those who drink. Get a few 6-packs and bottles of your favorite drinks. Get your girlfriends to help you make a few salads and have enough meat for just you and your boyfriend.
Now here's the invite. Tell your friends to bring their own meat and liquor. No, it's not to be stingy, but when everyone brings different cuts and drinks you have a smogasboard of things to chose from! You can chill their for a few hours and then you can go out later tonight if you guys wanted.
Just remember to help your friend clean up the next day, or you won't have a friend left!
