For around $150,000, you can buy a nice, modern, small house on
acreage in Costa Rica, farm coffee (or lease the land out), and be

three years ago.

What do you do when they decide to kick the gringos out or tax them to
death?



There are no guarantees anywhere. Costa Rica is a stable country, with a
well-educated population, NO standing army on which to waste its
resources, and good social services.

No army? Without the implied protection of the U.S. and others, how long
do you figure it would remain "stable" in that volatile area of the world?

I find it fascinating that a country that borders on two of the region's
most volatile and militaristic countries is able to remain independent
without some military junta coming in and annexing it.



Transportation suxs. The roads are bad, so lots of travel via boats or
airplanes. Makes it hard to an army to attack and hold the land. They do
have a national police force that serves like an army from what I
understand.

Couldn't be...

I don't think that $2000 is an unusual monthly expense for a guy who
lives where he can go offshore fishing every weekend *and* is including
his boat loan in the total.

On the Grady White, insurance is $3500/year...or $300/mo. Gas runs
$500/mo. Boat payment is $777/mo. Maintainance is $1500/yr...or $125/mo.
Bait and ice is another $100 or so. Fishing tackle (line, leader, hooks,
weights, jigs, etc.) is another $100/mo.

The 17' Whaler is paid for. Insurance is $500/yr, but gas is negligible
in that boat.

Combined, they cost me $2000/month.





My $20k full replacement on the Jetcraft is $243 / year. Gas in not
negligible. And toys are not paid for with loans.

Perhaps, but my expenses on the GB are even higher. I think it's
safe
to say that the average American does not own a boat worth well
into 6
figures. In our case we view it as a second home.



It's good we're having this discussion - just adds more fuel to my
fire about cruising. :)

More proof the lobster boat was a wild fantasy.

Dan ... you must be the newsgroup w*ore. Now you're infatuated with
Harry.
Can't you focus your attentions on one man at a time? Shame on you!


What purpose do you serve here, Don? Humping others like a little, sad,
dog is pathetic.


Donnie is the "me too" of the circle jerk trio.

his boat loan in the total. It doesn't take all that much boat to
require a monthly boat payment of 4 figures these days.

I have never paid for a boat with a loan.

Same here. Just like a car loan, you are paying interest on something
that is depreciating in value.

Po' Widdle Dan is upset because almost everyone has put him in their
bozo bin. If you do, too, then no one will have to watch him crap in here.

Sure, Harry.
