[quote=Anonymous]Maybe you guys all grew up in the Cold War era, but I work in international development (although not a Foreign Service Officer) and seriously no one says first world and third world anymore. It's frankly a little offensive. Developed/developing is more frequently used, although some people have issues with that as well. It's hard to say without knowing the exact locations, but I travel regularly to parts of Africa for my job and I would move to many of them in a heartbeat despite the risks if I were on an FSO salary with hazard pay. You can afford a life in some of these countries that only the actual rich people can dream about in the US, not to mention increased opportunities to travel and meet new people. Living in Paris would be great too, but I'm not sure how cushy it would be given the cost of living there. Besides, If you're posted in Africa you can get to Europe easily for vacation. [/quote]
