Quoting AEnigma III:

Quoting ciko:

hahahahahhahahaha you made me laugh out loud well we dont talk about only money..also football, politics....

yes we complain so much about money because most of us dont earn enough money to look after our families properly. but i am sure we are much happier than most of people live in rich countries..



Actually this is quite culturally interesting. In the UK it would be considered "very poor taste" to talk about money to guests! You must always give the impression that you dont have money problems. Even now, my parents would never discuss money even with my sister or I!!!! Its very silly really!

hospitabilty is our one of most common speciality and we take enough pain for don't bother em,so i think it was an unluck of kafesteki's

well we too dont talk about money to guests:-S it is considered so rude in Turkey. but we dont try to make eachother think that we dont have money problems i dont know anyone around me who earns enough money and doesnt have any money problem but ..i am repeating..we never mention about money when we are with guests.

To be fair, I think all countries treat their guests well and would spend their last penny on their comfort.
