I seem to have given you the impression that I have a problem with your stated intention. Sincere apology for giving you that impression as my intent was not to make you defensive. From many of your posts you impress me as being an astute and knowledgable individual and I'm just trying to leverage your research more or less. No joke. I find the subject matter interesting.

1. Costa Rica (which reporters without borders gave a higher free press rating then the US)
Cost of living is substantially less. A studio apartment in walking distance from the beach can be had for less than $500/month. Liberal enviroment, with the occasional shake down from the cops resulting in a small fine. Rampant drug use and partying and sexy women galore.
2. Just about anywhere in Europe. Particularly Prague/Paris/Amsterdam

I've heard a lot of good things about Costa Rica myself. Thanks for the response.

I didnt get that impression from you. I can see how my wording might have thrown you off though.
I also enjoy your posts, both on these boards and the stock market section.
Owning/buying property in Costa Rica is a hassle from what I have read, especially if you do not plan to live there year round. Costa Rica has squatting laws that allow people to squat on abandoned property, and you would actually have to get a court order for them to leave. The area is also prone to hurricannes, and floods, and there are alot of problems that can occur buying property.
Im also not sure if its the best enviroment for children. Unless they speak spanish they will have to enroll in a private school. But for a single man, or a couple, I think its ideal.
