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

Last month, I alerted you to an opportunity to invest in the Founder’s Guild memberships being made available at Carmelita in Belize.

Life As Art–Retirement In The Enchanted Land Of Bali

“From the comfort of your veranda,” writes Asia Correspondent Wendy Justice, “you can see the people of the neighboring village tending to the irrigated paddies of bright-green rice. A gentle breeze making its way down from the distant mountains softly touches into life the shimmering greens of a hundred species of plant life. “You eye the ducks swimming in the irrigation canals and tilt your ear slightly toward the sounds of happy laughter, and other-worldly gamelan music softly carries from the banjar community hall in the distance. “Taking a deep breath, you sigh with contentment.

Suntem in a doua zi a evenimentului Bay Festival din Isle of Man. Apropo de acest stat, ultima campanie a politiei ii indeamna pe conducatorii auto sa nu-si mai lase cheile in contact atunci cand isi tin parcate masinile.
