Sosua is the armpit of the DR where only the cheapest pervs go to score underage girls. It's tough being a webmaster in the DR because you can't get a decent internet connection. When the exchange rate went from 17 to 55, everyone adjusted prices upwards, and then when it fell back to 25 no one re-adjusted, so it's made things very tough $ wise for Americans. Anything which needs to be imported (like computers, TV's and other elctronics) is VERY expensive. It's tough to get a decent steak/beef there, so you'd better like chicken. You REALLY need to know how to speak Spanish if you want to live there and not CONSTANTLY get ripped off. There's tons of young, pretty girls there who will want to be with you if you're American, but they're almost all hookers (to some extent or another), and by the time they turn 25 they look like they are grandmothers (it's a tough life down there; middle class means you've got 3 walls and a concrete floor). You can find a nice appartment/house for a reasonable rent (but it costs a lot to "start it up", because appliances aren't included, and you really need an inverter, or better yet a "planta" - generator because the power goes out ALL THE TIME). You spend a lot of money on bribes, because EVERYBODY wants them; OTOH you can get away with a lot because everyone takes them. but be really careful about breaking any laws, because if you go to jail THEY DON'T FEED YOU, so your friends have to bring you food. the restaurants are really expensive considering how bad they are and the rest of the economy; a decent bowl of pasta costs the same as in Manhattan, which is probably a week's wages for the average Dominican.
