1. Depends. if you are a highly trained IT specialist or a manager it is ok, you will earn a tad less but cost of living is also less. You are bummed when you try to buy something big and imported, though, like a car, they are expensive.
2. Mixed. In some areas we have less freedom than westerners, in others we have much more. But the trend is going for the worse, sadly.
3. Corruption is a bitch, correct.
4. Greatly depends on the region. They had to use fake snow for Sochi olympics and they have palm trees there.
5. YOU suck. Russian cuisine is great and rather versatile. Also, huge amount of world class restaurants of any cuisines in big cities.
6. If you are really dependant on black and latino women, yeah, you're fucked, lots of various asians though.
7. You lazy fuck.
8. You don't know how to drink it, bud. However, yes, it is rather different in methods of consumption from cognac and whiskey.
