    yes still the cost of living is cheaper compared to foreign countries if you have many passive income sources or at least a good salary (not talking about 100000 or 200000) this is an awesome place to spend your money and enjoy. yes it will be hard to get some good stuff but if you are that rich I don't think you would bother paying for amazon shipping range getting them :)

    How can you enjoy when shops and restaurants around you have power cuts

    How can you enjoy when you have to wait in long queues to get fuel for your fun rich trip

    How can you order even in amazon when sellers blacklist your country for getting too many charge backs

    How can you shop online when imports are restricted. Do you know for how long vehicle imports are stopped ?

    How can you enjoy when you don't get easy access to luxury products you easily buy in super market ? Those products will disappear from super market racks when imports get restricted

    How can you enjoy when medicines are not easily available. Dollar crisis can effect medicines as well
    ?

    Most of us think we can live a good life ignoring other peoples economic situation . In reality it will be tough for you to live when people around you are living with poverty. They can steal your money, they can beg from you, they can be a threat to you. Etc.

    Nope
    No one has come to attack me cos I mind my own business.
    Haven’t had any serious accidents cos I drive rarely and carefully.
    Haven’t had any issues with returning products - just got my phone replaced by Abans (took a bit of time tho)
    Geyak aluthennan hadela na - except for repairs. No issues.
    Never claimed to be rich either.
    yeah you are very lucky, i hope you never get into any issue in life bcz when you do u will realise your honestly and innocent count for nothing in this shithole country

    many but at the end of the day its a personal choice ban , i hate it cant wait to get out of this place,
    of course it’s a personal choice but no one can say that everyone who wants to stay here are rich and corrupt. 👍

    no thats not what i meant to say, you can stay here but its much harder if you arent willing to be corrupt person your self, (this is from my experience and most people i know share the same sentiment )
