Day 224 Sunday (Domingo) - Panama City
First off Happy Mother's Day to my mother back in the States and to my lovely wife here in Panama and Happy Mother's Day to all of you ladies out there wherever you may be that had to put up with kids like me!!!
Speaking about mom's, let's take a look at a program here in Panama that is called the Jubilado. A Jubilado is a lady 55 and over and a man 60 and over here in Panama. As a Jubilado you get (or should get) moved to the head of the line or somewhat special treatment in doing business within the country. Panama respects its elders and this little Jubilado program helps show that by allowing you to move to the head of the line when performing different errands such as banking, and receiving discounts off of most everything you do here.
Maybe this is similar to AARP in the USA but no membership fee is required and no political propaganda gets sent to you. At a restaurant you just say "La Cuenta Por Favor con descuento de jubilado" and your discount shall arrive usually in the amount of 15-25%. By the way, this is the LAW for all Panamanians and foreigners alike.
