Lots of Development in Latin America
Well, I wasn't surprised to see that Costa Rica, and Tamarindo in particular, continues to develop at a rapid rate. More paved roads ... expensive condos ... well-stocked supermarkets ... it's all there for the influx of U.S. and European retirees.
Is is sustainable? I don't know. I do think Latin America is witnessing real gains in domestic consumption. More on that in the near future.
But as I noted on my other blog, it's hard to comprehend $800K condos in a third-world jungle. I'd rather buy a little bungelow in a beautiful, subprime-battered California town like Laguna Beach and take little jaunts down to Nicaragua during the flat spells. But to each his own, dude ...

New High-Yield Recommendations; Lots of Traveling!
I've been absolutely slammed with work lately. In fact, I recently released three new special reports on my favorite high-yielding stocks.
If you're interested in getting them, check out this page for all the details.
I've also been doing a lot of interviews lately. For example, I just sung the praises of dividends to CBS MarketWatch a couple days ago.
Now, I'm busily preparing for a bunch of trips to find both waves and great, new investment opportunities.
Tomorrow I'll head off to Latin America for nine days. Then a quick business trip to NC. THEN ... I'll be immediately off to Thailand with a brief stop in Switzerland.
Yowza.
Oh, and did I mention that I'll be bringing along my wife and 15-month-old daughter? Yeah, it will be a real trip, dude!
Look for more updates from the road!
