There are many reasons other than poverty that cause Goans to sell their property. Many of these examples have been cited right here on Goanet.

That is the reason they prefer to sell their house for non goans who would give them a nice price." > My reply - I have heard criminals too, state that they turned to crime because they could earn Rs. 1 lakh a month or more and as salesmen they earned only Rs. 5,000/- per month. > Mario observes: > This reply makes no sense.
