I can break this down for you since I just sold my moto after using it for a year. I bought my moto new for $1350 and sold it for $850 almost exactly a year later. So $500 to use a new moto for a year ($42 a month). My work was far so add in about $8 to $10 a month for gas. $4 for oil change (once a...

If you are looking for a used moto check online, specifically the Facebook groups for buy and sell. You typically can get one from an expat and hopefully not worry about maintenance issues.

Very helpful, thank you both.

I read that you can get a short term visa to China (72 hours). I am flying through Shanghai and have a 13 hour layover so I wanted to explore the city a bit to kill some time.

If we had a dollar for every time admin had told a teacher to be strict and then taken the student's side when it cam...

I work for one of the high end private universities, so while I cannot comment on the poor education of the provinces I can tell you that cheating as a whole is a huge deal on the university level. Many of the elite enter university with the notion that do not have to work very hard to get a degree ...

Best alcoholism prevention argument ever. Absolutely. :shock: UPDATE: Mystery of the missing penis solved A man who woke up from a blackout drunk on Sunday to find his penis had been chopped off, still doesn’t know where his penis is, but at least he now knows who’s responsible for its removal. One...

It can be sad, given the state of the man or the economic status of the women who date them. It is not going to go away however until the impact is changed in the region.
