    I’d buy that if he didn’t start his statement with “I live in Switzerland.” 8 may be a lucky number for him, but he absolutely knows what 88 means.

        On the flip side, do you think a Swiss person living in Asia would be ignorant that 8 is a lucky number?

          I think all the Westerners in this thread that are shocked that Asia has culture they didn’t consult them on would imply yes to your question.
