Photo Images & Impositions by Roger Gallo - If
an explanation is too simple, I suspect treason, or at the least, an obfuscation
of facts. After all, we live in a universe whose most common attribute
is complexity. If it's too simple, it's bound to be wrong. I suppose
I should learn to simplify things, take last months article for example...

Making Money Overseas - Writing
eBooks For EscapeArtist.com - What we're looking for
are ideas, not Pulitzer Prize writers. Ideas are what fuel our magazine
and our website. Now we want to expand that concept into eBooks for
expats. You don't have to be a professional writer to submit a report
that provides important information - - information that you yourself have
learned by having been there and done it. That is exactly what our readers
are seeking, facts about living overseas from people who've done it.
Yes, you can make money from a good report or two... possibly a lot.

Not a bad gig by any means, but lacking any language skills and foreign
to the culture, panic set in. Larry relied on what skills he'd brought
with him, and before the month was over, he called China home. Larry
enjoyed his time in Shenyang so much, he stayed an additional year.
He eventually returned to Canada to set up house with Jun, his lovely bride
from China and credits his good fortune solely on his #35 haircut.

search of distant places, unique
faces, and unimaginable cultural events. As a teacher in San Francisco
equipped with a large dose of cultural curiosity his adventures have provided
experiences and insights not easily found here in the west. As he states,
“Adventure travel is not synonymous with taking unnecessary risks, but
rather with a willingness to venture down the path that you didn't intend
to find.” His experience in Indonesia searcing out the famed Komodo
Dragon is indeed distant, unique, and unimaginable.

Change,
Thoughts, and Strategies 2002 - Investment
Strategies - Lic. Steve Saemmler-Klein is considered
by many to be the offshore “guru.” He is a known resource for
international financial structuring and global solutions, and is a frequent
speaker and author on these subjects. In this article, SSK offers advise
to investors. "In the mid-‘90s, when the upside seemed to exist everywhere,
investment decisions were reduced to a matter of product selection in bonds,
equities, precious metals, real estate, and other securities. All
that still remains important, but investment managers will argue that product
selection today will be predicated on sound, strategic advise, and sound
advise that is unencumbered by the pressures of satisfying sales in investment
products.

Isla Solarte . . . . Living
In The Bocas Del Toro Archipelago - The most popular
place in Panama is Bocas Del Toro - and with good reason. There is more
to do in Bocas Del Toro than anywhere in Central America and the Caribbean
combined. It is the Caribbean, the lowest priced real estate in the
Caribbean, it is Panama, and Bocas is just an hour from the high-tech international
banking center of Panama City, and minutes from the European ambiance of
San Jose, Costa Rica. (In fact it's only minutes by water ferry to Costa
Rica,) and it's sailing, diving and surfing is world renown. |

It has never been our wish to spam anyone. We have always posted

If there is no method to unsubscribe to something... then it is spam.
