To make 100k per year there, you must first live a full year there.
Then, you have to make it back.
And if you survive your first year you will probably want to make that second 100k.

Man I would rather go try the ice road stuff,before I would take the risk of getting my truck & me made into an instant dust cloud
Seen way too many videos of what happens when they set off an IED as your passing by
As for shooting I would be armed if I was driving over there
I wouldn't be without some type of gun
I'd even try to get my desert eagle shipped with me if I was crazy enough to go give that a try,but I'm not that big a gambler
You got better odds on the ice road then you do there
Like some have said "Dead people can't spend the $$$ they made" well I guess some can be spent on the shoe box for what might be left of you when they pick up the pieces
Look into something better within the country
