Can someone explain poverty in Turkey. To what extent it is.
I have heard of a Hotel Owner, keeping second cousins will this be true?
I have been told 75% of people can collect money with a card? This was told to me from a retired Turkish RAF pilot.
I know there are a lot of wealthy people in Turkey and poor also.
If you read the topic last week on Tourists going to Turkey, someone copied from a newspaper, billions of pounds have been made from Tourism??? Where is it going, We all pay £10 each to enter the country. Millions of us coming into the country each year.
There are people residing now in Turkey and look at what they will be putting into the economy. They are charged fees for staying there as I have read. Unlike here we are not kept there and don't drain their economy.
I have apartments as well as many thousands, and it has been good for council/belediye, builders, estate agents, restaurants, bars and shops and generally local employment and making a lot of people wealthy. These maybe resort areas. Many travel to work and live there for the season from other places.
I have visited a waiters home when I was looking to buy and it was situated in a beautiful area with a sea view, he had just had built two apartments above him and was asking quite a sum for each one.
What people don't realise; there is poverty in every country. America, England and many countries classed as a rich country. Eg; The Appellation Mountains in America one of the poorest places and you can see from documentaries how really poor they are. A train goes up especially at Christmas and drops off for the children.
They did not have shoes on their feet what I saw.
If someone explains some of the crisis in Turkey and enlighten me please?
