Retire in a Resort

After 20 or more years of working you truly deserve to enjoy the rest of your life. But at the rate things are going with the economy, you could even be finding yourself in the midst of financial problems. The worse part of it all is being told that you're going to have to work a few more years.

Then, It suddenly hits you as you look in the mirror, you're in your late 50s, you have an arthritic knee that bothers you whenever it gets cold, your savings account is just enough to tide you over for a few years of not working, your retirement plan is in shambles, and you just can't bear to go to the same place of work for another day.

Oh, and you are balding.

THE GOOD NEWS

You're going to thank me because I am going to make you an offer you can't refuse.

Have you ever thought of retiring in a tropical resort where you just sip some cool orange juice by the pool whenever you feel like it?

It might go like this, in the morning, you don't even have to rush and scramble in the subways and grumble and mumble to yourself how life could have been better. No youngsters would shove you out of the way to make room for themselves. The first thing that you do when you wake up is to smell the aroma of brewed coffee wafting through the air.

You then grab a small piece of warm bread and add butter.

You pick up the morning paper and read the news. You then take a warm soothing bath in your tub to relax.

There's no noise, only the chirping of the birds and the buzzing of the bees.

You can sit down all day and not have to worry about the economy, the recession, employment, money and all those things that you've come to treat as the things that you think about whenever you go to sleep.

THE SOLUTION

None of that exists, in your world now. That life is an ocean away because you're in another country.

You're in the Philippines, a tropical country in South East Asia, and you're living in a resort. A resort that's 15,000 square meters big.

I am aware that Americans don't often use square meters so I'll bring things in perspective. That's about 3 acres.

For many, this could be a dream come true. In fact, many Americans have come to love and live in the Philippines in their old age. Some even find their second wind of love here.

This archipelagic nation comprised of 7,100 islands, offers you that chance.

COST OF LIVING

The cost of living here is drastically different - yet the culture is surprisingly similar to that of the US. Ever since the 2nd World War, the Philippines has been blessed with the advantages of having an educational system that is closely patterned after the US educational system.

Here, you could buy a small piece of bread for the equivalent of $0.11 cents (USD) each. You could buy a kilogram of rice for $0.86 cents (USD) and feed a couple for at least two days. Vegetables are plenty, because the surrounding area is an agricultural community.

Would you believe that a coconut here costs only $0.11 cents (USD)?

BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES

You could ask me, Danny, what the heck am I going to do there? Plant banana trees?

Well, if you like. I'm thinking that you don't so I can still offer you another solution. Run the resort for yourself.

But if I am going to run it myself, then that means that I am going to have to work again!

That's right. But at least you'll be taking my job now. You can manage the resort and open to the public.

It gives you a rare chance to delve into something that you've never done before.

I implore you, do a little research, hire your own attorney, do a little due diligence and take a look at what we have to offer. Opportunities such as these don't just plug themselves in hub pages all the time.

This is your only chance to buy, live and retire in a tropical resort for the remainder of your years.
