It's good to be the wife

Dan was a single guy living at home with his father and working in the family business.

When he found out he was going to inherit a fortune when his sickly father died, he decided he needed to find a wife with whom to share his fortune.

One evening, at an investment meeting, he spotted the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Her natural beauty took his breath away.

"I may look like just an ordinary guy," he said to her, "but in just a few years, my father will die and I will inherit $200 million."

Impressed, the woman asked for his business card and three days later, she became his stepmother.


Women are so much better at financial planning than men.

I've lived here for about 3 years and honestly I don't feel as safe as before. I used to walk on the beach daily, but no more. Probably what freaked me out the most was the poor retired gringo who was kidnapped a few months ago and rescued from a narco safe house in the Oceana Condos. These condos are fairly upscale and cater to gringos. Not only was there a narco safe house in the complex, they found grenades inside.

The cop killings here in Rosarito are scary.

I don't recommend my family to visit here now until things settle down some more. I don't feel safe here anymore. I don't feel safe and cheery when stopped at checkpoints with a kid holding a loaded machine gun inches from my face.


I can understand those feelings. I don't agree with them all- but I understand them. It's hard to feel comfortable here in Rosarito when the only information you get is missing, filtered or manipulated. When you can't get the facts of what is happening around you- you think and assume the worst. It's always better to err on the side of caution.

(BTW- I thought that kidnapping/Oceana/narcosw with grenades incident involved them holding an elderly local Mexican man who helped park cars or something like that. This is the first I heard it was a "gringo". It did make no sense to hold a very poor old man for ransom money now that you mention it. See how no info makes bad info?)
