@abrown4075 Except Top Gear was extremely scripted and this was raw footage. Top Gear cars would break down way more often than any other car in the world, people have driven $500 beaters for years without issues but Top Gear can't even make it 30 miles without engines overheating. This is the same but different and I enjoy it a lot. It's just raw, good content.

Mark, I have worked in Iraq for the last 15 years on a 28/28 rotation as a Scotsman in the Basra oilfields. I loved my time there and completely agree with your observations. It’s not the safest place; it often feels like someone is out to get you at every turn but all they want is a photo and love there phones so much. However, the people of Iraq are incredibly friendly and have hearts of gold. Their understanding of the English language is impressive, and their desire to improve and prosper is something I have witnessed time and again.

Many moons ago, we used to drive lorries from the UK to loads of places down there. Before sat navs, if you broke down you needed to be a mechanic as well, as there wasn't anyone helping you fix the truck, no mobile phones, no breakdown service, no calling the boss for help. Spending days on border crossings.

I used to work in the MENA(middle east, North Africa) for 12 years, for a region seemed to be stuck in perpetual war the people are very friendly and love hosting new friends.

I was a stay at Home mom with no money in my IRA or any savings of my own, which was scary at 53 years of age. Three years ago I got a part time job and save everything I make. After 3 years, I am 56 yo and have put $9,000 in an IRA and $40,000 in my portfolio with CFA, Evelyn Infurna. Since the goal of getting a job was to invest for retirement and NOT up my lifestyle, I was able to scale this quickly to $150,000. If I can do this in a year, anyone can.

Evelyn Infurna has demonstrated expertise in investment strategies n has been involved in managing portfolios and providing guidance to clients.

Seriously brave move(even though cleared at the border) Mark. Worked in the Middle East for years and have been invited to the British embassy in 6or7 of the Islamic nations.A G&T at the embassy in Dubai,absolutely fine but in “dry” countries like Saudi etc even though drinking perfectly legally,if on the way back to the hotel our drivers car were to be stopped by police and they could smell alcohol they would arrest first ask questions later.If you ever return be careful breaking laws that a non decision making and essentially “office” worker gives you the go ahead on. It’s a very complicated region. Cracking video as usual Mark
