How to sell snake oil.

Is the quality of life so bad that you can't scape up $129. That's how much an air conditioner cost

Poetic justice!

And probably applauded in the whole world except the US.

Eat this, Trumpfantino! 😄 Maybe you shouldn't have gotten involved: it only vexed the Belgian team to perform better!

On topic: I wish they'd watch the World Cup in the villas: we could watch both the games & the girls at the same time then!🙂 

Still watching that gay soccer, I see.

That your country has been lying 🤥 to you about America 🇺🇸 

All the news in other countries lie about what's really happening in the US.

Football is how the game is essentially called, as in manipulating the ball with the feet, not the hands. Only Americans call it soccer.

And I bet most Americans won't follow football anymore NOW, after their ass-kicking despite their president pulling strings for them with the FIFA boss. 

But this World Cup, that seemed quite different! Until now at least, lol. Jeez, the US is so used to winning, that when they do lose, they're really sore losers!...

The fans at least, unlike the team, who I must admit accepted the defeat graciously. Perhaps they felt ashamed because of Trump's intervention on their behalf (would he have done that if football wasn't important?...), and it affected their performance?...

About air conditioning: most of the US has always had hotter Summers, Europe only the last few years/decades (Climate Change). Still, most Europeans  prefer healthcare over airco.

We call it soccer because it's soccer, not football. Climate Change? You believe that bullshit?

Not being a subscriber, i try to keep myself informed about what's happening on RLC world by login CC, but apparently there is no news, same boredom as usual. Football world cup is way more interesting right now.

Not a surprise. We have been talking a lot about how boring is RLC lately (well, a couple of years)... and, off course, things aren't to get better if they close down almost the whole Barcelona hub (GOV). In the end the only exciting apartments are B2 and B4. These tennants would need being creating content by themselves permanently in order to keep "alive" the project. Too much pressure.

It seems B2 is doing well lately, but B4, RLC best asset, seem to be in a coma. 

To me, the only way to bring to life the project again is reopening three (at least) apartments for the GOV concept. 

I said this multiple times, but i think RLC need a strong GOV hub to be exciting because they menage wrongly the couples concept. 

To me couples are interesting just for a limited time because they tend to be boring. For that reason, RLC should change couples (mandatory) every 2 years max. Some of them 1 year is already too much.

Instead of this, RLC allow to stay the couples all the years they want 😐

1 year max!
