    Would you take a job that paid 65 grand for three months work?

    The only catch being is that the job is in Iraq.

      Guess it would depend of the job.

      But I definitively wouldn't risk getting shot for 65k.

        Well, if the job isn't too much dangerous, that's a good way to make mad money

          Thats what this is. My luck though, I'd be kidnapped and beheaded within 24 hours of getting there.

              Bodyguarding in Iraq? Wouldn't it be easier just to paint a big red target on your back and walk through Harlem screaming "death to all those filthy negros, power to the kkk!"?

                      It's not a guaranteed death sentence by any means, lots of people over there that make it back ok. I just won't take even a .002% chance of getting tortured in a 3rd world prison.

                        What does 65k tax free work out to anyway? I mean the equivalent taxed income. 100k?

                          I say try and haggle. If they will pay 65 grand then they would prob stretch to 80 grand. If it doesnt scare you then go for it.

                                I doubt the chance of death there is very much higher than anywhere else. It's HOW you would die that would make me not go. No dull knives sawing off my head thank you very much.

                                          My brother is an engineer over in Iraq and he is getting paid very well. He has been over there for almost a year and I worry about him but he assures me that he is very well protected. He has 3 body guards assigned to him (his crew) and he told me that as long as you stay smart and not drop your guard then everything is cool.

                                          He plans on staying there another year.

                                              LOl well obviously they are looking for people with military and preferably COMBAT experience. I have both.

                                              Besides, you're Canuckistani.



                                              And anyway, its "maneuvering".
