My BIL just flew into Afghanistan to work as a superintendent or something in the construction zones. He has only been there 2 days' to work for an American company. The word so far is the food in the cafeteria is the best he has ever seen and they have a great gym.

3 months on, 2 weeks off for 200K a year and all you have to worry about is taxes and gett'n killed!! same as here I guess.

A friend of mine is a mechanic for a construction company there and made about 190k one year turning wrenches. His wife is from Mexico and to skirt taxes had to stay there 3 months at her families spare house. He said that between the inlaws and the cartel wars Afganastan and Taxes looked good.

Best money I ever made was while being shot at... combat pay and everything I made was tax free.

So far the word from him is, work, eat, sleep and no place to fish! I thought there might be some Sand bass in the desert? LOL

He is in a (cough) very secure area, say's there are 1,000's of American contractors in their little "city".

I don't know, may not be that bad...
