How about your friends or family? Do you personally know of anyone living the American dream? The reason we ask is because we see the world changing. And it seems, more than ever, it's impossible for regular, ordinary people to work hard to achieve the American dream. In fact, we actually think the American dream has vanished. It's not longer attainable . . . at least in the United States. In this video, we talk about the things keeping Americans from achieving the American dream and how more and more Americans are moving abroad to live that dream. ▸▸▸Check out some of our other videos!
