A few years back, while everyone else was still raving about Tulum, I’d already moved my sights across the other side of Mexico. If you took my advice then you got a heck of a deal on an ocean-view property situated in the heart of Mexico’s next big push in tourism. As I expected, significant […]
My picks for the five top property markets for 2021? I reveal them below. These are the five markets I’m most bullish on post-COVID-19. In each case, you can invest for a healthy cash flow… and—wait for it—for less than six figures. In fact, in most of these markets, you can get in for under […]
It’s that time of year again… And you may be scrambling for gift ideas for certain friends and family members. I have a suggestion that could help. I’m talking about one of nature’s most-rewarding gifts… Not gold, frankincense, or myrrh—all three of which you can pick up in a gift box on Amazon for just […]

Even if you’re just here for a vacation, this is stuff you should be […]
Panama is truly a convenient place to live if you want to travel around Latin America. A recent flight from Panama City to Santiago, Chile, for example, wasn’t short (at seven hours), but it was painless.
