Krazy, If you want it, then you will get it.
Work for a month, save every cent instead of boozing, cars and women, and you will have enough to go overseas for a few days. Get some time off and go.
The one thing that I have learnt though, is do not take someones word for it over the phone. Get a hard date and time for the interview, then go.
If you are Aussie based krazy, you can get some very cheap deals out of there into south east asia. There is a lot of work up there.
You just have to be able to put up with the conditions.
