Why Nicaragua Should Be Your Next Destination

Michael Cobb

Over the last decade, Nicaragua has been grabbing the attention of a select group of forward thinking people from across the world. This is a country that stands out from others in the region and it's not only because of its enchanting atmosphere. Don't get me wrong, the beaches are exotic, the climate is fantastic year-round, and the culture is traditional, yet very inviting. But there is a lot more to Nicaragua that the trend-setters are starting to discover which is making this country an emerging leader in Central America.

Only 3 units remain. And the leaseback program is closing in 7 days. Once July 4th rolls around, all remaining units will be no longer be eligible to participate in the program. You may be wondering, "what makes this program so popular?" Read on to learn why.

You are entering the right market at the right time.

Farmland Vs Rental Property Vs Annuity Vs Timber

Alex Wilson

In recent months I have had dozens of retirees ask me if I think an annuity is better than real estate, or timber better than an annuity, or farmland better than traditional real estate. My answer is always the same… "Depends how you define better."

Obviously, one of the most important financial goals during retirement is income. People today are waking up to the realization that the chances of comfortably retiring on social security benefits is a thing of the past. The cost of living increases over the past decade have been significant, and if the trend continues (which I believe it will), then making sure you have other income sources becomes a major priority.

Insight on the Latin American Real Estate Industry With Mike Cobb

Noah Krassenstein

I recently interviewed Mike Cobb, the Chief Executive Office of ECI Development, Ltd. a few weeks ago about what are some of the big issues facing property buyers and investors in Latin America right now. Here is a part of his thoughts.

Q. What do you mean when you say that people need to "thin-slice" Latin America to really get it right?

Legal Tender Forces Gold Out

Keith Weiner

Keith Weiner is founder of the Gold Standard Institute USA in Phoenix, Arizona, and CEO of precious metals fund manager Monetary Metals. He created DiamondWare, a technology company which I sold to Nortel Networks in 2008.

The government has many ways of forcing us to use their paper dollar as money. The tax on capital gains on gold is one bullet in their gun. The legal tender law—U.S. Code Title 31 §5103—is another. As with the tax, legal tender does not outright force anyone. It works by a subtler mechanism.

The Nicaraguan Lifestyle: An Insider's Perspective

Noah Krassenstein

Before most people consider moving to another country, they usually want to know what the key differences are between the U.S. and the new area they're thinking about. The best way to get that kind of information is to find someone who has lived abroad for a few years and can answer any of your questions. Carol Cobb is a married woman and a mother of two daughters. A few years ago, she and her family moved from the U.S. to Managua, Nicaragua, and they have been happily living there ever since.

Can you give me a brief description about the community you live in?

I would call it an American style community with a gate. There are about 25 to 30 homes. There are sidewalks, cul de sacks, and a small park where the kids can play.

Stress and Longevity

Drs. Eldred Taylor & Ava Bell Taylor

It has been long suspected that stress can accelerate aging. We certainly know it can make one look haggard. This observation is now supported by scientific research. A study of women with high levels of stress from caring for a chronically ill child showed that psychological stress (both perceived and actual) was associated with genetic aging, equivalent to at least an extra ten years. Another recent study published in the Journal of Immunology reported that the chronic stress experienced by children and spouses who care for Alzheimer's disease patients might cause an earlier death. The caregivers, studied over a period of 30 years, had their lifespan shortened on average by 4 to 8 years.

What Makes Belize So Special?

Peter Zipper

If you're on the Hemispheres site reading our articles, you must be remotely interested in taking at least some part of your life to another country. Some of you might be interested in buying property in another country, but some of you might want to learn more about offshore banking. For those of you interested in offshore banking, let me offer you an ideal starting point for your financial endeavors. It can all start in Belize.
