There's something funny (ironic?) in the fact that you consistently misspell the name of one of your Golden Goose countries (Colombia). I don't meant to sound like I'm sitting on a high-horse —- in fact I enjoyed reading your stories and always thought about trying passive income myself -- but it kind of epitomizes the situation: you made a lot of money marketing to a population from far away and far enough away that you're fuzzy on the name of the country to which you're marketing.

Again, I do appreciate you sharing the stories, and I hate to call out a spelling mistake like that. Just thought it had symbolism in this case.

You are absolutely right, your comment also kind of cracked me up a bit and I appreciate it. My strategy was very much spray and pray, throwing things against the wall to see what stuck.

I actually have been to Colombia, spending only 5 hours onshore and grateful for returning to the cruise ship safely.

I was just 17, and walking down the street a group of young, beautiful women approached me and started flirting and touching my arms etc...

For a second I thought "Hot damn, I'm the man here in Colombia, these girls love me" and then I realized they were prostitutes.
