The best investment during the 20-year period from 1994 to 2013 was U.S. farmland. That’s the conclusion of a recent report in The Economist, which also considered farmland in Britain, U.S. stocks, international stocks, gold, U.S. T-Bills, U.S. forestry, and commodities. Based on the annualized returns and including appreciation of the land, U.S. farmland outperformed […]
When I was in Athens in July 2013, effects of the austerity measures that had been in place for more than two years by that time, intended to help save the ailing country and its bankrupt economy, were visible everywhere. Traffic was light, restaurants along the shore were mostly empty even though it was the […]
A chart of Argentina’s economic activity over the last century could have been used as the blueprint for one of the rollercoasters I rode with my kids at Universal Studios in Orlando last week.

Right now is the time to act on a property investment in Medellin, Colombia, if you’ve been considering taking a position in this market. The Colombian peso has moved from 1,850 to US$1 in July to 2,300 to US$1 today. That’s a 25% gain for U.S. dollar holders in six months, creating a buying opportunity […]
Specifically, the Panamanian government is talking about implementing a road project that was commissioned and approved years ago. The previous president didn’t pull the trigger for some reason.

That’s a phenomenal return when you consider that money market yields in the United States are less than 1% right now and CD rates are not […]
“Paraguay is the world’s 10th-largest exporter of wheat. “It’s also the world’s eighth-largest beef exporter, seventh-largest exporter of corn, sixth-largest producer of soy, fifth-largest exporter of chia and soy flour, and fourth-largest exporter of yucca flour and soy oil. “The country has the third-largest barge fleet in the world (after the United States and China) […]
I’m in Belize this week for my Global Asset Protection And Wealth Summit. Kathleen and I arrived in Belize City yesterday afternoon and took an in-country flight out to Cayo to visit our neem trees. When we were last in Belize, in August, we commissioned this first round of tree planting, about 100 neem trees […]
After the launch of the Live and Invest in Nicaragua Conference last month, a reader wrote in to ask how safe we think that country is…really. This reader’s husband couldn’t make the conference dates and, after reading the U.S. State Department’s travel advisory for Nicaragua, told his wife she couldn’t attend the event on her […]
For tourists, Nicaragua is an absolute bargain. The super-low cost of everything attracts backpackers, of course, but it also attracts others looking for a high quality-vacation at a bargain price.
