Here’s How Not To Let This Happen To You

Admin

Buying wholesale, path of progress, crisis investing, real productive assets…why bother with all these different real estate investment strategies? Why not just focus on one? Wouldn’t that be simpler? Yes, sure. It’s be more simple, but, over time, it’d also be far less effective. One of the fundamental advantages global real estate investing offers is diversification. You want to capitalize on that advantage every way you can. All those bubble investors in the United States who “controlled” millions of dollars worth of pre-construction condos found out the hard way what putting all your eggs in one basket can mean for … Continue reading Here’s How Not To Let This Happen To You

“I grew up in the 1950s and 60s, and China was closed, full-stop closed, permanently closed,” writes Intrepid Correspondent Paul Terhorst. “Mao’s Revolution had taken hold,” Paul continues. “One thing we knew for sure was that we’d never, ever get to travel in China. “Today I can still hear my older brother saying, with that grave, pontificating voice that 14-year-olds assume, that China, not Russia, looked to be the biggest danger in our future. Remember that, during the Cold War, Russia–actually the Soviet Union, but everyone called it Russia–was Enemy Number One. My brother figured China would be even worse … Continue reading See Asia In 2010

“It has been nearly four years since I moved from Tucson, Arizona, to Boquete, Panama,” writes new Panama Letter Editor Lee Zeltzer. “Looking back over my experiences, the operative word is ‘change’…in Spanish, cambio. “Panama has changed in the time I’ve been living here, but more rhelevant to me is the change I’ve experienced. “I came to Boquete with my wife to start a new life when our last of four children moved on to university. Within 18 months, my wife had left. For many reasons, she has not returned. Big change. “Before she left, we’d purchased a small piece … Continue reading If You Don’t Like Change, Try Sun City Instead

Phil Hahn is tempting those of us convened in the meeting rooms of the Ft.

Once Crazy, Now Genius…Just Ask Brian

Admin

In the month since my new “How To Retire Overseas” book was published, I’ve been interviewed by a dozen reporters and editors intending to review the book in their respective media. A common theme has emerged: Americans are ready to make a move. They want out. They’ve had it with health care “reform,” rising taxes, and an uncertain future. They want to find a way to hold on to the assets they’ve worked their whole lives to accumulate. More than any generation of retirees that has preceded them, they’re ready to take action to take control. They’re even ready to … Continue reading Once Crazy, Now Genius…Just Ask Brian

Springtime In The Jurançon…French Country Living At Its Best

Admin

“Sometimes, when the sun shines, you just have to drop everything and get outside!” writes France Correspondent Lucy Culpepper. “This morning I dropped the children at school, then set off on my road bike into the Jurançon countryside in the southwest of France. This is rolling wine country. The vine growers use traditional grapes, such as Lauzet, Petit and Grand Mansengs, and Courbu. The vines are just starting to turn from woody looking sticks to the leafy boughs that will soon bear the fruit for both the golden sweet and the dry clear green Jurançon wines. “Wine has been grown … Continue reading Springtime In The Jurançon…French Country Living At Its Best

From High Stress In The UK To The Bliss Of French Country Living–One Family’s Retire Overseas Adventure

Admin

In 2006, two generations of the Mulcare family decided to leap off the work treadmill in the UK and follow their dream of living, working, and retiring in France. Until this point, the younger generation–James Mulcare, his wife Ruth, and James’ sister Louise–were all working in full-time stressful jobs in Britain. James was a real estate asset and fund manager; Ruth was a PR consultant, and Louise was a sales manager with Mercedes Benz. James and Louise’s parents had just retired from a successful law practice and bed-and-breakfast business. It was the older generation that launched the search for a … Continue reading From High Stress In The UK To The Bliss Of French Country Living–One Family’s Retire Overseas Adventure

How To Earn Guaranteed Yields Of Up To 22% Per Year…

Admin

Last month, I alerted you to an opportunity to invest in the Founder’s Guild memberships being made available at Carmelita in Belize. This was an appealing opportunity, evidenced by the fact that the developer at Carmelita, friend Phil Hahn, has closed out all the packages available (to Live and Invest Overseas Marketwatch members). The interest in these investment packages was so great that Phil has decided to make additional packages available. Specifically, Phil has launched four additional US$50,000 packages this week. In addition, he has created a new level of investment opportunity and is making four US$75,000 packages available, as … Continue reading How To Earn Guaranteed Yields Of Up To 22% Per Year…

Campanii Web 2.0 de la 3,000 eur chiar si pentru proiecte imobiliare?

Admin

Imi place foarte mult sa merg la targuri si expozitii atat ca expozant cat si ca vizitator. Cand aflu de ceva care ma intereseaza particip intr-una din cele doua calitati si de cele mai multe ori timpul este bine investit. In cazul in care particip ca expozant uneori sunt dezamagit, dar asa este in business. Ieri am vizitat Targul National Imobiliar la palatul Parlamentului si chiar vreau sa-i felicit pe organizatori ca au reusit sa pastreze alive acest targ chiar daca intre participanti erau mult pre multe banci si brokeri de credite raportat la numarul de agentii si dezvoltatori. Sau … Continue reading Campanii Web 2.0 de la 3,000 eur chiar si pentru proiecte imobiliare?
