#1- Money confiscation at airports and borders- THE FACTS:
Yes, the FEDS, TSA, DEA and Homeland Security have been illegally confiscating cash from travelers at an accelerating pace (the USA is bankrupt, but you knew that already). Today we discuss what you really need to know before traveling the world with any substantial amounts of cash. You probably know that legally you must report if traveling with cash instruments over $10000, but technically (and legally) you can travel with much much more as long as you report it on the customs forms. However USA alphabet agencies do operate with impunity and will take your cash money. Its today's first "boots on the ground" story
#2- HONESTY and Latin Americans:
Some gringos and expats think those two things are mutually exclusive… but the question is... compared to which other cultures? Gringos, Europeans? Today we discuss the results of a large international “Honesty Test”. The results are surprising..
#3- How to use that great Latin American Craigslist site called “www.OLX.com” to buy and sell stuff in Latin America:
Wherever you happen to be on your “Plan B”… http://www.OLX.com is a site you must be aware of. Today we have some great tips as well as certain red flags that to keep an eye out for while using it.
#4- Be sure to pick up my new and revised, "LATIN AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REPORT":
