What I'm saying is it's all a matter of perspective.
I've spent more than 3 years living in Costa Rica, and yes the people do seem pretty happy. Once you introduce them to a more Western lifestyle, though, they _NEVER_ seem to want to go back to the way things were.
Another good example is the poor soul that does everything they're told, goes to church, studies hard and gets a good accounting job. He marries some boring Woman, pumps out a couple of children and spends the next 40+ years paying his mortgage, bowling with the guys from work Friday night and going to church Sunday morning. I bet he thinks he has it made, but holy fuck does that ever sound like a nightmare to those who know better.
Ignorance really is bliss.
