"Beyond my balcony, vineyards stretch in every direction. As I sip a glass of fabulous local wine, my cook is creating something in the kitchen that smells truly divine...
"My garden is bursting at the seams, though I don't look after it. My gardener does. Honestly, it's a feast
for the eyes...
for the eyes...
"I'm so pampered here that I feel like a guest in my own home. Grandchildren coming to visit? A full-time nanny costs US$400 a month. A full-time maid is the same...
"A round of golf is US$4...a good table wine costs
US$2 a bottle..."
US$2 a bottle..."
Dear Live and Invest Overseas Reader,
This paradise is real. In fact, it's but one of five dream lifestyles you could be living right now.
Not turned on by the thought of a view of vineyards from your balcony?
Perhaps you dream of a new life in the mountains...
I know a place with the most spectacular 360-degree views of jagged, 1,000-meter-high mountains covered in cloud forest, tumbling down to an equally green and fertile valley floor. All around, every shade of green...the temperatures cool and comfortable year-round...
Still don't have your attention? Perhaps it's a life on the coast that gets your imagination bubbling...the dream of a place where you could live with a view of the sea in every direction...
I know a place just like that...a small town that offers all the little luxuries, services, comforts, and conveniences you could want.
Furthermore, this special seaside spot is clean and safe, and the infrastructure is First World.
The fine sandy beaches are well-maintained...the ocean a deep blue, in sharp contrast to the tidy white houses that meet it at the shore...
These paradises are real. They do exist. And they're far more affordable than you might ever imagine. You could live your new life among the vines...nestled among verdant green hills...or enjoying the sounds of the sea and the surf just beyond your balcony...for less than it cost you to live "back home"...
How does US$600 a month sound? You could handle that on your Social Security income alone, I'd bet.
That budget could buy you a new life in a charming country of volcanoes, vivacious people, and never-ending delights. The vibrant cultural scene runs smoothly alongside quant tile roofs, cobblestone streets, and pastel stucco exteriors. With the superb restaurants, there are times late afternoon and early evening when the light and air are reminiscent of Santorini.
You'll eat well with a US$200-a-month grocery bill. You don't need a car, as this is one of the world's most walkable cities. A full-time maid adds only US$150 a month to your overall cost of living.
The place I'm describing is a World Heritage Site and perhaps the world's best-preserved colonial city. Here, again, you could live safely and well, amidst history, beauty, charm, and friendly neighbors, for as little as US$600 a month if you own your own home...US$750 a month if you have full-time help around the house.
What could be more affordable?
I can think of another place, another charming and historic colonial city that, again, boasts spring-like weather year-round...and that, again, is one of the most affordable spots to live or retire anywhere. You'll be astounded by the cost of everything from bus fare to fine dining.
A ride across town on the modern city bus system is only a quarter. Rather take a taxi? That'll cost you but US$1.50. A three-course lunch is also about a buck-and-a-half. Utilities are inexpensive, as is the cost of renting. You could rent an apartment for as little as US$300 a month...or for as little as US$650 a month fully furnished.
Paradise does exist. Places where you can walk away from the grind and the stress...from the mundane and the worry...
Where the streets are safe, and the neighbors are friendly...where the view from your balcony is pleasant and pleasing...where the days are long and the sun shines year-round...
Where the way of life is relaxed and easy...where your days are your own, to fill as your imagination dictates...
Where you can have the best of both worlds--a life that's both charming and affordable...and supported by the services and amenities of the 21st century...
I know five places right now where this way of life is possible.
Among the vines...nestled mountainside...at the beach...amidst colonial-era splendor...take your pick.
These are the Top 5 Havens Of The Americas....the top five places in this Hemisphere where the way of life you dream of is realizable on even a modest budget.
How do you know if one of these top five Shangri-las has your name on it?
And, then, how do you move from the dream of a new life in an affordable, exotic paradise to the reality of a new and exciting life overseas?
You need to understand...
You need this information in real time and from the point of view (and with the layer of judgment) of an expat who knows the destination from firsthand experience.
I'm delighted today to be able to bring you just that: The just-released Top 5 Havens Of The Americas Special Collection, a set of complete reports on each of the five top retirement destinations in this Hemisphere.

Prepared by expats with long experience living, investing, and doing business in each destination.
Health care can be international-standard. Health insurance can cost as little as US$100 a month.
The cities and towns are safe...and neighbors look out for each other.
People have their priorities in order. Family, for example, is important.
Plus, if you hail from North America, you're not too far away. You can be back home in the States or Canada in a matter of a few hours if you need to be. You can travel back and forth to see the grandkids regularly if you want.
There are many reasons to think about launching a new life in retirement in another country. If your list of reasons includes any of the following:
In this Special Collection series, each of these Top 5 Havens Of The Americas is covered in an in-depth "Country Retirement Report." Each report introduces you in vivid color and full detail to what your life would be like as an expat retiree in each destination.

| Purple and red bougainvillea branches overhang the walls of every street. The place is a riot of textures and colors...
This is a Land of Eternal Spring. The rains start in May and end in October, leaving the surrounding valleys and mountains lush with vegetation. There's virtually no humidity, and the temperatures hover between 60 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit year-round. |
