Belize: One of the few places where private banking is still private - Belize's commitment to going its own way and resisting international pressure has been a proven success. From 1990 to 1997 roughly 3,000 offshore companies were registered in Belize. But between 1998 and March 2000, the total number of offshore companies registered in Belize exceeded 14,000. Companies establishing themselves in Belize are finding a government committed to a no-tax system with laws and infrastructure designed to ensure privacy and protect assets. These attributes, when coupled with an English speaking population and laws very similar to our own, make Belize one of the world's top tax havens, a truly safe locale for your money. by Joel M.

New ~ Costa Maya, the next Belize, with 80 miles of virgin coast - After a week of exploring Belize on the most recent Discovery Tour there, I took a ride north to Quintana Roo, the southeast state of Mexico best known for the concrete nightmare of Cancún.

The real Mexico Chetumal is the opposite of Cancún: It's a real Mexican city, charming, green, clean, and small-scale, with terrific local architecture, two universities, dozens of good cheap restaurants, many lush parks, a huge botanical garden, a romantic sea wall across from the government palace, an impressive Mayan museum, and a bustling main street... by Ken Layne New ~ Belize Update...

Nagel You'd Better Belize It's Better - You'd Better Belize It's Better - Tim Sheppard and his wife Yumiko took a trip to Belize and ended up buying property there. Tim says, "I have been looking for my own personal spot in the sun for several years. The US is too crowded, expensive, and I’m tired of all the damn rules. I’ve been searching Costa Rica, Honduras, and Nicaragua for that great deal. I’ve been disappointed as I searched from Tela to Trujillo, and from San Juan del Sur to Blue Fields and Isla de Maiz. Unfortunately, too many people saw “gringo” and thought that meant “mucho greenbacks.” I love the countries and culture, but the prices have just been too high. I was surprised that Belize, undoubtedly the most expensive Central American country for day-to-day stuff, had the best deals I’ve found on land."
