I was talking to my friend over the phone, very smart guy.
We had been employees of a multinational in Santo Domingo a few years ago. I left and went back to Europe, he stayed.
So I have this old dream of starting up some kind of business in DR, make enough money to buy an apartment in Gazcue, and then retire.
So I tell him, how come every time I talk about this, you switch to another subject? Don't you want your apartment in Gazcue? Let's start a business, I asked you so many times...
His answer was, my friend, are you prepared to run a business in DR? Do you realize the amount of corruption in DR? Do you realize what you would have to go through?
I don't agree with him, in my last trips, I have seen so many young people in Santo Domingo make it, with good, innovative ideas, and they don't look like Vito Corleone.
Who's right? Would I regret to the end of my days having wanted to make it in DR?
