I suppose I am just an idealist at heart and get a bit frustrated by some of the old cynics in San Pedro who shake their head knowingly at every new comer and anticipate their failure based on the fact that they are a certain age, of a certain financial status or from a certain background. I have noticed that it is usually the antisocial and the greedy who fail when they come to Belize. The kind, generous and creative who have realistic expectations and don't want to get rich seem to do very well. The ones who really want to make money come down with a ton of money already. But there is nothing wrong with selling jewelery or art or playing in a band if that is what you want in life.
