#1- Spotting Latin American “Gringo wanabees”: Seems as if every Latin American with a little dough eventually jumps on his own Latin version of the 1st world treadmill. The upper 5% are not looking to have more leisure time or even a calmer lifestyle. Just the opposite. Their quest is all about appearing to be more 1st world hip and affulent than their Latin friends and neighbors. The question is, who cares? While we Gringos and Expats snicker, it’s a serious business to them and other Latins playing the same dumb game. #2-Are upscale, educated Latins into good health and fitness?

#2-Are upscale, educated Latins into good health and fitness?

They think they are. But as you’ll see once again, its all about putting on a show and appearing to be as gringo-like and as 1st world as possible

#3- How polluted are Latin American waters compared to yours up the states?

Yes, all Latin waterways are polluted and that’s not good, but after hearing you’ll probably still take Latin America’s water over yours and here’s why..

#4-Today we have the so-called educated Latin’s view of Trump’s famous, proposed border wall: Oddly enough, some smart Latins are seriously calling for such a wall themselves. However not one placed anywhere you might think!
