Leaving America? Move to China The How-To Guide to Living a Glorious Life in China While still in America, I wanted to find a place where I could still fulfill my dreams: dreams of making enough money and having time freedom. I wanted to support myself, find romance, and not be financially dependent on one job or boss. I found out that the ideal place for me was China. This book tells about my dream of going to "Zhongguo" (China) and how I did it. I also talk about my life in China- amazing stories of the events that have occurred since I went there. What's more, I go over what prompted me to want to move there in the first place-what are some of the awesome advantages to living in China, and why I had become disenchanted with some of the aspects of living in the U.S. I will also tell how becoming like the Chinese, or becoming an "old China hand," can help a foreigner gain major ground and have more chances for success here. By becoming an "old China hand," or a foreigner that has become like the local Chinese in customs and speech, I have received huge numbers of fulfilling job and work opportunities, and have met many influential friends. Learning Mandarin quickly was essential, and I will explain how I learned it so fast, without the aid of a teacher or tutor. Family and friends back home and in China often ask me why I chose China, and why I like China so much. After all, they say, many Chinese people are trying to go to America to study, and here I am leaving America and going to China. What is wrong with me? I have many reasons. Everything about China is so exciting People's attitudes are great. The locals treat foreigners like royalty. In addition, Chinese people are friendly. It seems like every person I meet wants to be my friend. The economy is booming, with construction and other industries going on at all hours of the day and night. Another thing I like is that there are lots of good looking and friendly women. I know this doesn't pertain to many women readers, but there are also many foreign women that find love in China, too. There are tons of jobs. I hadn't had a ton of success in Hollywood as an actor when I showed up there in 2006, but since then, I am fortunate to have appeared in dozens of national commercials, TV shows and movies. It is a peaceful society. Violence is rare, even in the largest cities like Beijing (23 million). Life in China just feels easier overall than in the States. There are a lot of people not just in America but many Western countries that are not satisfied, working paycheck to paycheck, trying to support their families. They're just not that happy. This book is a "How-To Guide Book" for all the other Americans out there that want to try there hand at a new and exciting life in China Remember, fellow Americans: if you are thinking of Leaving America, don't move to Canada, Move to China ---------------------------------------------------------
