South Korea is a ticking time bomb

 This country is in trouble. There is more housing than there are people to actually buy a unit and then move in. People are choosing to live selfish lives. Jobs are here but no one wants them as they are too low paying. Families are in huge debt. A man killed his family and then committed suicide in Iksan last week.

The reason? Debt! He took money to start a business. The business? A coffee shop. This was a very very bad idea! There are coffee shops EVERYWHERE. This means after people try your shop they often go back to the well-established branded coffee shops. So his plan was as bad as opening a fried chicken shop they are EVERYWHERE. So he lost all of his while going deep into debt. 

We think that he might have been putting on a showy display of his means of life. He likely did this knowing that he was sinking into debt. Instead of trying to live modestly and not caring that other people in the community would know of his failure, he hid it.

I am pretty sure he had a "normal car" and house. What I mean is it would have been something similar to what his friends had or slightly better. He took his family on an international trip then killed them and ended his own life when he got back.

All over South Korea, people are living on credit cards. They are making the same mistakes that Americans have made and are still making. eventually, you end up with nothing. During our family bible study, I keep reminding my family and myself that this world is truly dead. all that glitters is actually dull!

People smiling are actually people screaming at the top of their lungs! This country seems so stable but actually like the rest of the world it is actually a tinder box with flint striking it every day!

It was so funny when my wife told her students that Chinese and Russian fighters along with bombers violated South Korean protected airspace and South Korea and Japan scrambled fighters in response, her students were surprised. In the next moment, it was as if she had said nothing. They said nothing bad will happen. I am sure many in Europe were saying the same thing right before Russia invaded Ukraine.
