Expat Profiles: Bill & Theresa
Posted On 11/10/2008 16:54:19 by beachbum
When Bill Dudley (Yolisto: Hopper) suffered heart problems two years ago, he and his wife Theresa (Yolisto: pattycake) decided to get serious about plans to retire in Mexico.   Bill had a clogged artery and needed a stent to repair the damage in June, 2006. At the time of the angina attack, Bill's employer medical insurance had just lapsed and he was seeking new coverage.   “It pissed us off. One stent and three days in the hospital cost $95,000,” Bill said.   The couple nego... Read More

Dave (Yolisto: Pyro) Leist is going to be fine. He is balancing rocks on the beach.   Joan Paci worried that her husband couldn't unwind from a hectic life in California when the couple first arrived in Chuburna a month ago.   “When I knew he was going to be all right was when he started balancing rocks,” she said. “It's a good sign when he can balance rocks. It shows an inner peace.”   In the short time since Dave and Joan arrived in Mexico, they have learned to feel at... Read More

A few short months ago, Gary (Yolisto: Papaw007) and Nancy Draper thought it was impossible to retire and move to their house in Mexico.
But after a visit in April and a meeting with their financial advisor when they returned home to Monticello, Indiana, the couple decided to make the leap.
“When we went home last April, Nancy said why don't we just retire and move down,” Gary recalled. “I didn't think there was any way we could retire at 55. I sat down and made up a M... Read More

The first time David Ware and Robin Anker visited Mexico they were frightened.

Robin flew to Merida to help his sister plan the renovation of her Chuburna house last October.

"It was a very eerie feeling," Robin said. "We got here at the beach at 1 a.m. and I was scared to death driving down. There were no protector bars on the house and it was very primitive. I woke up the next morning and went outside and it was just gorgeous."

David also felt uneasy when he ar... Read More



Expat Profiles: Nan & Les
Posted On 09/03/2008 18:58:31 by beachbum
Les and Nan (Yolisto: LegalBlonde) Logan traveled all over Mexico before deciding to spend their retirement years in Chelem. They considered Lake Chapala, Puerto Vallarta and other resort areas during their search.   "Lake Chapala was like an old folks home. It was like Florida," Nan said. "In Puerto Vallarta, people would leap out of doorways wanting to sell us a timeshare. We didn't want a gated community."   What they sought was a warm climate, friendly people and a relaxed lifesty... Read More
