How You Can Save Your Retirement In These Bad Times

Jan. 19, 2010 - PRLog -- Now you can find out everything you need know about Costa Rica’s retirement solution on Christopher Howard’s monthly Central Valley and Combination Central Valley/Central Pacific Beach retirement and relocation tours at www.liveincostarica.com. Baby boomers, investors and others will learn that, in spite of the current world financial crisis, they can hang on to what they have and live for far less in Costa Rica. They can enjoy a high-quality lifestyle and have the time and freedom to do what they really want.

All tours include excursions to desirable neighborhoods where expatriates who have made the move describe their experiences. Also included is a highly-informative two-day seminar that covers all areas of living in Costa Rica, including real estate, moving your household goods, the medical system, adjusting to a new culture, shortcuts for learning Spanish, and banking. We provide an entire network of invaluable contacts to ensure your success in Costa Rica and make the move as easy as possible.

For many, Costa Rica offers the solution to the economic downturn in the U.S. Located only two hours by air from Florida, Costa Rica has been called the "Little Switzerland of America" because of its unparalleled beauty and political neutrality. The country’s year-round spring-like weather, friendly people who love Americans, low cost of living, world-class medical care at a fraction of the cost you would pay at home, one of the five hottest and most affordable real estate markets in the world, favorable tax situation for foreign residents, high-quality lifestyle, high-speed Internet, satellite TV from the U.S., no army, enemies or danger of terrorism, plus a government that makes relocating as easy as possible for foreigners — all combine to make Costa Rica tops on the list of Latin America’s travel destinations and offshore retirement havens. More Americans live in Costa Rica per capita than in any other country outside of the U.S. They can't be wrong!

Christopher Howard, renowned travel writer of 15 editions of the bestselling "The New Golden Door to Retirement and Living in Costa Rica," www.costaricabooks.com, has been conducting his one-of-a-kind relocation and retirement tours to Costa Rica since the early 1990s.
