![How to Get a Developer Job – Even in This Economy [Full Course]](/img/tr.png)
Benidorm is a small, built-up area which generates huge income and thousands of jobs - it's tourists aren't depriving Spaniards of housing.
One American tuning in today. Actually conditions in the US have me living in South America. I was considering Spain but after taking in a lot of information, some of that from this channel, I changed my mind. I'm very happy with S.A. giving consideration to many factors we're all dealing with.
Which country? What tipped the decision? I lived in Peru for work and visited many countries in Latin America and have visited Spain.
I also want out of USA.
I'm interested to know what you didn't fancy about spain? Please let us know!
We’ve got a guy here in UK, recently out of work & looking for a job, & thinks he is very good at stopping small boats. His name is Sunak if your interested
I haven’t left the uk since 2016 and my life hasn’t been affected apart from I don’t have any any stress that comes with travelling
25 years ago i worked in Benidorm during the summer - absolute hell! Impossible to rent a flat due to the low low wages / high rent. There were 11 of us in a small 2-bed flat. I was on my feet 12+hours a day with little breaks. Young and exploited! Never again! Hope its changed for workers now though!!
When I was a child in the 1950 we always had spam and other days raw tripe with vinegar. Many of the kids had condensed milk on bread or Marge and sugar sandwiches. I was fortunate to have school meals at one shilling a day. I would hate it when they served tapioca which we all called frog spawn.
Have you seen the price of Spam now?
I love how you keep the balance in the news (politics, environmental, protests). In ref to how much all the $ tourists bring into the country, I tried to be an adult to do my own research on how much illegal immigration costs the Spanish taxpayers each year. Strangely I couldn’t find it anywhere. So folks will protest against prosperity, but not about their future funding being taken up by those who’ve not earned it? Or are the citizens being kept in the dark?
Well done in setting Gary straight.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Property owners from the UK have to jump through hoops of fire to be able to spend more than 90 days in their property so why should these people be allowed to just rock up and start their new life with Spanish gov't support?
They voted Brexit, then, 90 days.
@@salustrever8846true, but with a change in uk leadership, will they push to get back into the eu? And the 90 day rule would no longer apply.
@@salustrever8846 Why do the same rules not apply to them?
@@yanassi The EU has already negotiated the exit and it is a closed issue for the next 30 years. They will not get complicated again with a country that has left such bad memories, as a partner and as an ex-partner.
@@CJD666 Because they are illegal immigrants and EU legislation prevents immediate deportation, for human rights, they go through another channel to the British, Japanese or Peruvians. Although the new European Parliament is going to change those rules, surely.
What do the Spanish want?
They do not want tourists,
They have problems with water usage for agriculture
So in reality how do they expect to earn money?
Good question ....... time will tell.
Doesn't look good though hey.
The Spaniards do not want a wild EXCESS of tourists. Regarding agriculture, Spain is a highly developed country in water management, it has a transfer between rivers of 300 kilometers, in the driest areas of the south, it is irrigated drop by drop with control of temperature and humidity controlled by computer. And in addition, Spain has 756 desalination plants. In addition to tourism, the Spaniards also work in the chemical, naval, renewable, automotive, health, defense, mechanical, etc. industry sectors. Although the British prefer to stay with Spain in 1964, today, Spain is the 4th economy of the European Union and a highly developed country, despite the fact that the British believe that 50 million Spaniards eat thanks to them.
@@salozinp Not entirely correct but fair as much respect from La Alpujarras Andalucia.
@@salozinp Spain a lot smaller than UK ,
Being the 4th largest economy in EU says nothing, and if you take away tourists and agriculture it is a small economy.
What is Unemployment level?
Only 2 countries in the EU count,
How many of the 756 plants are significant?
Desalination makes water an expensive resource.
If the water management is so good how did all those fish get killed last year when agricultural off-flow spilled into the sea.?
Why are private pools being banned from being filled this summer?
@@bumblebee5818 If you take away the City and the tourists from the United Kingdom, you are left with a tiny economy.
I can understand your aversion to Benidorm however the area that gets the attention is the Levante Beach area. The next beach, Poinente Beach is more family oriented and quieter than the Little Britain Levante Beach area. Its also known as the Las Vegas of Spain. The towns of Albir, Denia, Polop, Gandia, Altea, Poinente Beach and South towards Alicante, all worth a visit and more authentic and residential with great sandy beaches!!! Finestrad is more new builds but has a few interesting points of venue.
I love the music in touristy benidorm, hate the fat belly Brits though and them vile t shirts that you see now, old town benidorm and the tapas alleys are really good. There’s something for everyone there, but I get Stuart’s view. Fat lads and lasses need to cover up. 😊
Hola stu and guests. It turns out change has come to the uk via the elections. Regarding immigrants to spain, i remember the news of high unemployment becoming much lower. I wonder was that lower unemployment number being the result of counting unemployed spaniards or the number of filled jobs? If it’s the number of jobs filled, then perhaps they were filled by illegal immigrants. A false positive, maybe.
Not just riches, freedom to live in a way that is not allowed in their home country.
did i just hear you correctly if they only offer cash in spain they are dodgy? Mate just say your an agent but dont call honest people dodgy it is an individuals responsibility to pay as little tax as possible since 400 years ago if you didnt pay taxes the king would send knights to collect your head but by all means call them dodgy
Also some people sleep in their car as they have rented out their house to toerists..
Stu it might help your listeners to get an understanding of the taxation system for employment, the high cost of taxation is a major factor in the level of salary and employment 😮
Agreed - I much prefer a real person talking to me. Always nice to see you at your desk or walking the dog Stuart
Butter on new potatoes is wonderful.
Hey Stu, hello everybody. Still following your program Stu 👍🙋♀️
I want one of your "turista" t-shirts. How do I order?
Going to Santander soon. ¡Tu video de Santander tuvo un efecto en nosotras!
Hello! Thank you for your post. 🇺🇸🎆🗽🕊
In the Canaries they have a rule for illegal immigrants they can only be held in custody for about 40 days then they must be released.
Also during ww2 an Italian submarine was sunk and 80+ lives were subject to a horrifying shark attack.
40 days in the custody, i would say its a holiday but considering the people in there wouldnt be a good 40 days but still better then the french legion thanks for the idea.
That basically means there is no such thing as illegal immigration, all migration is de facto legal.
Hola hombre-- in UK== we can trump those figures in 6 months-- though its only 21 miles across channel.
Hi Stu. Sir Kier was awarded a knighthood in 2014 for his work as head of the Crown Prosecution Servics and director of Public Prosecutions
Google Keir Starmer and Jimmy Saville.
….and in that time he judged there was no evidence on Jimmy Saville, oh and judged illegal immigrants should have accommodation and funding. Just two of his lunatic decisions.
You could fry dog poo in butter and it would taste nice, butter makes everything taste good I've always seen it as a bit of a cop out when I watched rick stein lobbing great lumps of butter in his fish dishes
Absolutely agree about cash, it is uninsurable and costs money to pay it into the bank. The charges to the vendor for card payments is 0.2 % far cheaper than paying in cash. Contactless is also more hygenic and, in my opinion should be mandatory when paying for foodstuffs. Plus, what do you with all those eurocents that nobody wants ?
The problem with that is Norway was leading the way as a almost full contactless country but now they got an epidemic of card fraud .which a senior official said its out of control .food for thought .
@@rodspence5105 Thanks for the comment, no system is perfect but a quick check on the Internet hasn't flagges up any particular issues in Norway. These days we can turn the card off when not required and that stopped the problem when my card was hacked several years ago.
Thanks
well said stuart, re Benidorm tourists, even here on costa del sol we call Fuengirola the "cheap seats"😅
While tourism is one one the issues driving up the cost of living living in Spain it is not the root of the problem, foreign money buying up Spanish real state is.
But the Spanish people only worry about the tourists coming to spend money. Perhaps a change of priorities is required.
I put Spam and Cheesecake in the same category. One bite tastes good, the second, not so much.
i recon this channel would grow if you had some locals on to talk.
I remember there used to be guests when I first started watching during the covid days. A guy called Nick who seemed to have a streak of bad luck and a younger guy who Stu would talk to about financial issues. Never see them any more. Don't know what happened to them. Hope they are both happy and well.
@@paulm5000 far we are going way back but i remember those days. hopefully we get some back
stuart you're describing ,"spam fritters", nightmare for blood lipids, I've got two stents that make sure i use garlic olive oil
I'll get some next time I go shopping, good tip.
Training is a joke! Provide actual industries which will provide the training for the workers.
PP calling for the armed forces to help enforce immjgration rules or limits....sounds like someone else we know.
Europe is a different situation though. Europeans are trying to protect their homeland. Americans are trying to protect the land they stole from being stolen.
Over 38,000 in the UK so far this year.
Hello from USA
Hi Stu, i'm just curious to hear all your reasons to why you think Benidorm is a 5hithole. I have been there a few times and i enjoyed my time there. Yes, it is saturated with British tourists, British themed bars and high rise apartments but it has nice beaches and pretty backdrop mountainous view. Benidorm was just a mall fishing village not too long ago. Maybe that would've been more palatable with the purists but then, we wouldn't have know about Benidorm.
Spent our 4th of July workin on leaving the US.
Starmer received a knighthood for his role as Director Of Public Prosecutions and his previous work as a barrister.
For running a bar, that is odd?
@@xmaniac99A barrister is a type of solicitor
@@Simon-jj2pu a yes so a pimp?
By the way Stuart, it's not irregular immigration, it's illegal immigration get it right 👍
IN THE Nederlands 1.500.000 in 4 years we are just 17.500 000 Dutch. In Spain 80.000.000. So what is the problem
Cut the number of flights coming into the country. Don’t allow hundreds of thousands of arrivals. The low cost of some European airfares, is ruining Europe.
Immigration issues there are similar to the USA. We have on the right of politics clamoring for military guarding the border. And propaganda by the right that the left wants open borders. Truth is somewhere in the middle. Nothing gets done because the "Right" are vocal, but really don't want the supply of cheap labor to dry up. Doesn't make sense to me Central and South Americans making expensive and dangerous illegal crossings into the USA when they could legally come to Spain.
Benidorm smells like india in the 90's
Well done in setting Gary straight.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
