I would say not just smart, but you do require the will to work extra long hours, good people skills, and the good money making business is relatively isolated.

There are far too many extremely low pay job in HK which will never get you anywhere.  You do the same here in Vancouver, you can still retire comfortably.

How much do they pay an average person?

係加拿大，做個唐人餐館侍應，日做夜做，慳啲，都可以買到樓，香港真係無咩可能！

唉，曾幾何時我都好想返香港闖，但係眼見香港變成咁，真係連返去玩都唔太想，返去真係純粹探親友而已

The way it is going in Hong Kong.  Large scale riots are in the cards.  Just hope the unemployment situation and housing bubble wouldn't pop.  If either one happens, it will be very messy.

    成日都話香港賺錢多啲，先唔好講賺唔賺到，就算賺到啲錢都係賺俾地產商唔係落到袋。

一間幾十尺嘅劏房都成＄３－＄４千一個月，點住呀？

我覺得呢幾年掩乾唔少中下階層嘅儲蓄，就算好似SARS咁再大冧市，都冇cash上車啦！

    Are the HK youth man enough to manufacture molotov cocktails and aim at the police? I think not. All they do is protest walk around on the street like its picnic.

Hong Kong's unemployment rate and taxation rate remain lower than that of Canada and the US. It looks like Hong Kong will be one of few places that will remain solvent in the coming few years, as HK government has no net debt.

Just look at Greece, Spain, Japan and the US. They are facing rising national debt. Sooner or later they will go bankrupt, therefore their governments will have to make big cuts in their spending, which will degrade their welfare, health care and education programs etc.
