As a financial advisor, I can tell you as a matter of fact that there are a lot of baseball cap, Carhart wearing average Joe's out there making six figures as plumbers, carpet installers, garage owners etc. One guy came to see me and he made $182,000 last year as a mechanic on a gas pipeline. Most of these guys are the nicest people on the planet, and after working 12 hours, they don't feel like going shopping for UnderArmour or whatever the latest label is. They are probably busy throwing a baseball to their son or driving their daughter to her sport.
Maybe some of you geniuses can start a business for the one in 6,000,000 people who get raped and savagely beaten in the DR, and you can counsel them on what to wear, and how to speak. You can train them and get them in shape before they attend the television interviews that you schedule for them. You can advise them on which attorney to hire in the DR and which hospital to go to at 6:00 am. You can coach them through interviews on live TV a few days after they are almost killed and their teeth are still loose or knocked out. You can help out the plumber by going to a customer's house at 3:00 am in the morning because his heat pump died and he needs to fix it before his pipes freeze, because Joe plumber is still in the DR, wondering around for a man that he has no description of who may have beaten his wife.
I think a lot of people move to the DR to get away from the judgmental a** holes in the "civilized" world.
