  • So I like … live those situations in real life.

    My boyfriends cousin and aunt come over here to America on a visa, work for cash and save it all up, ~6 months, and then go back to Mexico and don’t have to work.

    The hurricane that just passed thru Acapulco ruined my cousins house, so now he’s back here working to rebuild the house. It is 100% a cultural thing that I will not understand. My boyfriends grandma, who doesn’t work and is in the hospital more often than not, also sends money to her brothers on the farm in Mexico. Even tho the only money she has is from having sold her house 8 years ago. They spend the money on bullshit but she sends it anyway. Our dollar here is worth more than a Mexican peso, so around $1200 USD will get you an apartment , bills paid, and still having money left over, that sets you up for a year.
