In terrances case, I would believe him. But I think that your back peddling. You have been heavily critical of anybody who makes a living in a traditional sense.
I know people who traveled for 4 years without a job. I'm not sure how they did it, but they DID IT.
And yet, you are coaching other people to do it. This is intellectually irresponsible. I would think that you should learn how other people can live overseas without a job before advising others to follow in their footsteps. My guess is that these people are drawing off a pension or other investments that they aquired during their life (Like your 50 year old vet). They don't need to work because they have built up that life for themselves already. But you have attracted a following that haven't even began their life yet. You should be careful what you tell them.
FYI, you can get a job overseas. There are books on it as well as resources. I've even put a few titles about overseas employment in my Happier Abroad online bookstore, which you can look at from my main site.
Yes, I'm aware of this. I know of many people that are working as english teachers so that they can live overseas. They even get room and board accomadation in many cases. But they don't pay very well. At least not well enough to sleep with prostitutes on a regular basis.
FYI, Terrence works as a free lancer and has highly specialized skills. He makes money from his networks.
Yes, he is doing this the right way; the smart way. My issue is with you in particular. To the best of my knowledge, you do not have a job, nor are you looking for one. So your qualifications on advising people to get a job overseas is nil. You have a financial backer (your father). As such, you can advise your supporters to get one as well. Although it would be a challenge to convince anybody to bankroll a sex tour. How would you advise your supporters to do this.
Traditional jobs aren't the only path in life. You need to open up your mind.
But if you are a chemist, perhaps you are very left brained and rigid in your thinking.
Actually, my profession is not suitable to closed minds. You need an open mind to develop innovative solutions to challenging problems. You need an open mind to understand the sciences in general. I suggest that you adopt a little bit of humility before lashing out at something you do not understand.
BTW Chemist, I've banned the worst bashers but I've left you on, so hopefully you have more to offer than childish insults here.
After the attempt at character assassination you just committed, I would say that you are in no position to judge. I have not committed childish insults. But have called me a "liar" and a "fraud"...accusations that you have not yet supported. You can address them here --> (link removed)
I would also like to quote what you have posted in another thread:
"Now, let me make it clear that anyone is FREE to disagree with me or anything on my site that I say. It's ok to criticize me or others or debate. But those, such as the four above, who do nothing but use childish insults against others, are up to no good and have no place here. Nothing good comes from people like that. "
So why don't you prove to the board that you are a man of your word.
W: Suit yourself Chemist. You can choose to live in fear. I don't.
Actually you CAN travel long term without a lot of money. Why are you blind to that?
Remember Kinga (
http://www.ledbydestiny.com,
http://www.hitchhikingtheworld.com)? I have her book and read it. When she and Chopin ran out of money, they simply stopped traveling and worked for a few weeks or a month, to save up enough to continue traveling. What's wrong with that? It worked for them.
Some Finnish guys I hosted in my home in the US did the same thing. They worked for a month doing landscaping work, earned some money, then took off to South America.
That's all you do. Jobs are everywhere overseas, and a traveler who is short on funds can simply do some work somewhere, by talking to people, and getting what they need.
People do it in real life. I've seen it. So what is YOUR problem with that Chemist? Answer.
Your logic makes no sense again Chemist. No I don't have a job now. Nor do I need one. But I've had many jobs in the past. You can see my nice resume on my index page if you want.

If I need a job, I can get one anytime I want. So what is YOUR problem?
YOu sound like you have an old fashioned mindset that loves to condemn anyone who's not working. It's very chinese and outdated and judgmental.
Right now I'm preparing for marriage and I have to leave the country and I have to plan a wedding and honeymoon too. Getting a job now would interfere with those plans. So why should I get one, and jeopardize my life and plans, just to please old fashioned farts like you? Isn't that illogical Chemist?
One more thing. It is not true that I am not qualified to help people find a job. I have written resumes for people in the past that GOT them the job they wanted. And here in Angeles City, I have inside knowledge of where to get jobs for people that need them. What is your problem with that?
I've also worked at an Employment Agency long ago too. So I know how to get jobs. And I usually get them easily myself when I apply for them. I also am great with job interviews and know how to impress people. And I come off as being very polished, accomplished, goal oriented, and intelligent in person. Most people who have interviewed me have said that about me.
What do you want me to prove? I called you a fraud cause you claimed to have a great website, yet made excuses not to show it. YOu know I would never use your site in a bad way.
Also, you claimed to be great in logic, but you show no proof of it. Anyone can see in my Debunking Christian fundamentalism book and my Debunking Skeptics article that my logic is fantastic. Plus I am a chess champion who can beat over 99 percent of people in the world too. Not everyone can do those things. Thus I have a lot of respect for my logic. You, though, what do you have to show for your logic, except your words? Why should I respect or admire you for your logic? You have to earn it. So far, you are just all talk. Sorry, but that's what I see from you.
