      Kaak, that is seriously expensive looking thing. It looks very nice, at least from the outside.

        I have a new suggestion. Go to Mexico, and buy cocaine with all your money. That is heart stopping action, you can get killed at all times. Next phase is to get it across the border. You can use the help of your SO, as I think you can not store this amount of cocaine yourself .

        Then if you make it... well there's your investment!

        It has it all, the investment, foreign countries and sights, action and excitment.

                    How about Hong Kong? What's there?
                    Lots of computer stores with lots of "demo" games for sale.

                    Weatherwise, September isn't the best time to visit, but the deals are good.

                    You can get a flight from Calgary and three night hotel for about C$1,000 - $1,300. See:

                    or



                    Travelling would take up another two days.
                    I would use the remaining five days to go to Bali. It's super cheap there. Flight would be about $400-$500 from Hong Kong. A good hotel will run about C$70 a day. The beaches are amazing. That would be perfect you.

                      Shooting tigers on the serengetti plain would certainly be a unique opportunity.

                        FrustratedPoet, are you trying to say there are no tigers in there, or that it's forbidden to shoot them? Either way I'd demand the opportunity to shoot them, because that's what I signed in for. If it's not allowed, the guide just hast to cooperate, I'm going to shoot some and that's that.

                        If there are no tigers, then the guide can paint some lions or other big cats to look a little bit like tigers, send them to my way as I shoot them from the car. Either way, I'm going to get some.

                          Yes, there aren't any tigers there. It's strictly Lion/Leopard/Cheetah country.

                          Tigers are jungle animals, not savannah animals.

                          A load of lions and a big pot of orange paint should do the trick though. That would one hell of an adventure holiday!

                              Wouldnt you need darker paint rather than orange?

                                Shaving the manes off the males would be a challenge too.
