Location Location Location - People often when thinking about moving to the Dominican Republic or outside the us, think about living somewhere that’s really expensive ( Punta Cana, Santo Domingo or Puerto Plata ) - People assume that the more expensive something is, then the safer and better it has to be Here in DR: - Theirs a big business in gated communities - These lots and properties sell for a lot more and people think they are safe - Truth is, if someone really wants to do something, they will do it What I learned is this: - You have Expensive ( Gated ) - HiGh-end Neighborhoods ( not gated but really safe ) - Normal (average people live their, Safe ) - Ghetto ( you don’t want to live here ) We live in a Normal Neighborhood - People are poor, poor doesn’t mean ghetto and dangerous - People work and have normal homes - And I feel really safe, I paid 156 dollars looking into a potential new apartment which will cost me about $288 but its nicer and bigger Example: You live in the country side here, you won't be safer anywhere else, but a lot of people re afraid to live that way. 2. You ( well I mean me ) - I used to come here In on vacation to Dominican republic - Wearing jordans, flashing my iphone and looking super cool - My mom had gold jewelry and all the sparkly things You know what that sounds like: - Making yourself a target - People who live this way here, have to know that and they are willing to take the risk - But I’m not My family: - We dress average - We look average - We drive average - Their no reason to stand out However: - If you want to have expensive stuff - And drive expensive - That’s where those gated and expensive neighborhoods are going to come into play - Because you may become a target 3. Almost alert and adapting - We go out, and we lock our car doors to make sure no one tries anything - We don’t walk with a lot of cash, maybe $10 Something I did was: - I’m selling my Apple watch and bought a Casio watch * PRO TIP* INFORMATION IS EVERYTHING 💲Patreon Exclusive💲 https://www.patreon.com/tommybryson 👕Merch👕 https://teespring.com/stores/tommybryson ✅2 FREE AUDIOBOOKS✅ https://amzn.to/2Enayo8¬¬¬ 🎁ACORN FREE $5🎁 Link: https://acorns.com/invite/38EYSU ⚡FREE KINDLE UNLIMITED⚡ (traditional reading) Link: https://amzn.to/2VGbxt9 👨🏽‍💻DISCORD PRIVATE GROUP👨🏽‍💻 https://discord.gg/EcZEHpA My Camera Gear: https://www.amazon.com/shop/tommybryson ✔ Help Us Reach 600,000 Subscribers: https://goo.gl/0wvm6w 😎All My Social Media😎 Link: https://linktr.ee/tommybryson --- Disclosure & Educational Disclaimer: Some links in this video may be affiliate links, and I may earn a commission.
