Yes. Everyone in Pakistan is dying, everyone outside drinks from the fountain of eternal life.
My cousin recently married a girl from the punjab area. Her family have no people abroad. Nobody has gone to university. They have all worked in Pakistan and built homes, bought land and have cars. How did they do it?
1. They offered to farm other peoples land for a share in the crops. They ate some of the crops and sold the rest. They did this for years. Each year they'd buy cows for milk.
2. They got into the milk business too.
3. With the money from the 2 businesses they bought thier own farmland and got all the crops rather than a share.
4. With those profits they bought more land, more cows, and built homes and bought cars.
This is the effort of two generations. These people don't wear white salwar Kameez every morning, try don't have iPhone. They are covered in sweat, shovel shit, but they eat well, gave a good home and good health.
There are millions of such examples. Many of my own foolish cousins have wasted money in dubai and Saudi, yet if you tell them they will say "you live in the UK and that's why you are talking". For them motorcycles, iPhones and jeans are more important than hard work.
