Retired or near retirement age, the little nest eggs they  had worked to save for sitting in a lawn chair sipping margaritas, were  suddenly reduced to emergency rations as the costs of living rapidly  outgrew the budgeted monthly paychecks they were receiving. Many have  had to postpone their retirement checks, or go back to work to  supplement their incomes. It doesn\u2019t look like the situation is going to  get any better.<\/p>\n<p>Although spirits seem to be soaring over the slight improvement in  unemployment, placing it at 7.7% for February, past performances have  shown us this improvement is very short lived. Mild winters allowing  early construction begins the boom than pops it as seasonal work  staggers to an end. The dreaded sequester, passed earlier this month,  probably won\u2019t have the shock value the collapse of the housing market  had, but eventually the effects will be felt by everyone. The $85  billion budget cuts dwindle the funds for National Park services,  education, defense contracting, and will even cancel White House tours.  The seasonal employment gain will be lost as the workers in these  categories join the unemployment lines.<\/p>\n<p>With every man, woman and child owing nearly $55,000 for their share  of the public debt, retirement in the United States doesn\u2019t look like a  very good option. That margarita while sitting in a lawn chair could  best be enjoyed in a country where that retirement paycheck means  enjoying a comfortable living standard. Following the lead of Costa  Rica, Panama has opened its doors to investors, retirees, and expats  from 24 nations, including Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, and  the United States. The invitation, sent out by President Ricardo  Martinelli in May 2012, would give permanent residency to citizens of  friendly nations with professional and economic ties with the Republic  of Panama.<\/p>\n<p>The purpose of the policy is to encourage investment in new  businesses, purchase an existing business, or for those who have secured  employment with a Panamanian business. It also accepts applicants with  proof of solvency, which is a special enticement for retirees. With  $5,000 deposited in a Panama bank account, plus $2,000 for each  dependent, along with the monthly retirement check, that nest egg could  stop shrinking and start growing.<\/p>\n<h2>The economic advantages of relocating in Panama are enormous<\/h2>\n<p>Panama is a tax shelter, with strict privacy laws concerning the  banking industry and a number of protective laws set in place for both  international corporations and for individuals. There is an import tax  exemption on new cars and household goods. Residents do not pay a tax on  foreign earned income. The cost of housing is nearly half that of the  United States. Under the \u201cpensionado\u201d program, there are discounts on  utility bills, airline tickets, eye and dental exams, doctor bills,  movie theaters, hotels, and more. A retiree with $750- $1,000 a month  income could live well in Panama.<\/p>\n<p>Panama has evaded much of the global recession, with a large portion  of its economic growth credited to spending on the public  infrastructure. The ongoing construction has included expansion of the  canal, a new subway system, and private development of hotels, offices,  and housing. With expansion and improvement of its airport, it now  offers more flights per day than any other Latin American country.<\/p>\n<h2>Panama is quickly becoming the hub of Latin American commerce<\/h2>\n<p>The combined policies of creating a dollar value economy, encouraging  foreign investment and welcoming retirees into the country has drawn  numerous international companies to headquarter in Panama City. Of the  emerging nations, it is among the top four leading the way to economic  stability.<\/p>\n<h2>There are other advantages to living in Panama<\/h2>\n<p>While it was once difficult to obtain, with the welcome mat President  Martinelli has spread out, permission for the right to work and  establish a business has been simplified under the new laws. After five  years of residency, foreign investors, retirees, and expats may apply  for citizenship.<\/p>\n<p>While Costa Rica is geared more toward tourism, Panama has better overall living conditions;  good roads, excellent medical facilities, beautiful, uncrowded beaches,  clean water, and cultural diversity. The diversity extends to the  terrain. Beyond the very modern metropolis of Panama City, there are  small towns and villages, emerald mountains, and an abundance of  wildlife. It\u2019s the ideal setting for nature lovers, adventurers, and  outdoor recreation. Its Hawaiian styled climate includes miniature  ecosystems of jungle, rain forest, islands and reefs, adding special  enjoyments for everyone from cliff climbers to scuba divers.<\/p>\n<h2>There are a few drawbacks<\/h2>\n<p>For families considering relocating, schools outside the big city are  small, with few extra-curricular activities. Many of the groceries and  convenience items Americans are accustomed to buying are unavailable,  although there is an abundance of fresh, organic foods. Restaurant  service is slow. However, for work oriented individuals, even these  drawbacks can be an advantage. Panama has a high demand for English  speaking teachers. There are also plenty of jobs available for American  cooks.<\/p>\n<p>Panama could be seen as the new frontier for those with a pioneering  spirit. The minor drawbacks only mean a challenge for adjusting to a new  lifestyle and an opportunity to apply ingenuity and creativity within  its vast resources. America is staggering under enormous debt, with very  few outlets for prospective retirees to live well and enjoy the fruits  of their labor. With a healthy climate and thriving economy, Panama  offers the freshness and vitality to make those retirement years  enjoyable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this second
