How To Escape To An English-Speaking

Paradise In The Caribbean

settings
RESERVE MY PLACE!

Easy: Language is English; Currency is pegged to the U.S. dollar…

Affordable: Island living for $2500/month (and half that on the mainland)

Exciting: Find your youth with Mayan ruins, reefs, rainforests, waterfalls, and much, much more to explore…

Dear Live and Invest Overseas Reader,

It boasts pristine sugar-sand cayes and aquamarine Caribbean waters… 
 
Along with lush rain forests, ancient Maya ruins, and mountainside waterfalls… 
 
And it’s home to the world’s second-largest barrier reef and one of the most biodiverse landscapes in the Western Hemisphere. 
 
Belize is a natural wonderland. 
 
Here’s the thing, though: 
 
Belize is much more than just a Caribbean paradise… 
 
Just a couple of hours from the United States, this small country has quietly become one of the most popular expat havens in the region. 
 
English is the official language… 
 
And it’s one of the easiest places in the world for North Americans to live abroad. 
 
Belize is also a tax haven, with a cost of living that can be up to 50% lower than in the U.S… 
 
And it offers something increasingly rare:  
 
Belize is a genuine escape from the modern world. 
 
Friendly, unassuming, safe, and still under the radar… 
 
This is a small country that values freedom, independence, and good living. 

Despite being the size of Massachusetts, you’ll find enormous diversity here... 
Like all good Caribbean outposts, Belize boasts miles and miles of white-sand beaches, both along the mainland coast and fringing the islands offshore...

The largest of these islands, Ambergris Caye, is where you'll find most of the retirees.

The local dress code is shorts and flip-flops, the music is Jimmy Buffett and Rolling Stones, and, as cars aren't allowed, everyone drives a golf cart or rides a bicycle. 

This is pure and unadulterated Caribbean—the sea, sand, and sunshine of the Bahamas, Caymans, or Virgin Islands...

But without the high price tag.

In fact, you could rent a 2-bedroom apartment, right on the water, for only $1,250 a month...

Not bad for a fully appointed Caribbean island, right?

Indeed, this combination of lifestyle and price tag has made Ambergris Caye home to one of the world's most established expat communities.

Now, I fell in love with Belize long ago...

But it's not those sugar-sand beaches that captured my heart...

It's the secret side of Belize... the part that makes Belize stand out from the rest…

I’m talking about inland, to the Cayo, and away from the famous coasts. 

You won't find many golf carts here. I suggest a horse or a 4X4 if you really want to explore.

Here you'll discover Belize's rain forests, waterfalls, river caves, and Mayan ruins...

As well as lots of wide-open spaces and plenty of elbow room.

Life is effortlessly pleasant here in the small towns, like a throwback to 1950s America.

Everyone knows each other, and the local Mennonites are maybe the best neighbors anyone could ask for...  

The Mennonite Farmers' Markets overflow each week with fresh, organic produce grown locally...  
And, if you need something built, whether it's a rocking chair or a new house, the Mennonite craftsmen will make it better and cheaper than any alternative... certainly a better value than most things you'd find back home these days.  

Here in the Cayo, our monthly budget starts at $1,400, but you can get by on much less...

Rentals go for as little as $400 a month, and costs of entire homes (with plenty of land) start at around $65,000.

Belize is a unique land that qualifies as a rainforest sanctuary, an explorer’s playground, and a Caribbean escape... all with British undertones...

The official language is English, residency is super easy and brings big perks, and it’s approach to taxes is as good as it gets.

Retirement haven... expat enclave… tax haven... adventurer's wonderland...

An entrepreneur's playground and a frontier overflowing with potential...

It was love at first sight for me nearly 40 years ago, and I bet it could be the same for you. 

Wanna Work Less… Play More… Lose Weight… And Be Happy?

“I was vacationing in the Caribbean all the time,” Rob explains.

“I was working 50 weeks a year, then I spent every two-week vacation in the Caribbean.

“That meant 14 days a year I was happy.

“What if, I finally thought, I were to move to the Caribbean?

“Then I’d have two days each weekend to enjoy being in the Caribbean. Even without taking a vacation, that’d mean I’d be happy 104 days a year!

“I’m no math wiz,” Rob continues… “but it seemed like a no-brainer to me.”

How is Rob’s new life of white sand, azure sea, and swaying palms working out for him?

“I love the water,” Rob says, “so I spend all my free time sailing, surfing, snorkeling, fishing...

“My wife and I are living much better lives... much healthier lives.

“I lost 70 pounds in the first eight months here. We just eat better, and we naturally get more exercise.

“I can honestly say that I’m happier than I ever was living in the States. I’m a truly happy person now.”

Or Maybe You Dream Of Running Away To A Sweet, Simple
Life In The Cayo…

Perhaps it’s not the Caribbean that’s calling your name…

Maybe you long for wide-open spaces… a simple, sweet life in the country…

This was Tony Lauria’s dream.

“In my previous life in the States,” Tony says, “I was a high-rolling options investor.

“I’m a New Yorker born and bred… but I’ve dreamed my whole life of country living.

“For me, the best part of retirement was the chance to put my frenzied New York City lifestyle behind me.”

And that’s just what Tony has done.

Tony has found a place where the living is uncomplicated… back-to-basics… and super affordable.

“I was able to buy an adorable little turnkey cottage here for $69,000… fully furnished, fully outfitted,” Tony explains.

“My life here is great…

“I ride my bicycle every day… I tend my gardens… I walk to the grocery store… once or twice a week I go into town…

“And every morning,” Tony adds with a big smile, “you’ll find me on my front porch.

“I start each day on my porch drinking my coffee and watching the sunrise…

“The sun comes up each morning right… there…” Tony says pointing from his porch to the horizon just ahead.

“This is a dream come true for me,” he continues. “This cottage… this community I’ve joined… the new friends I’ve made… it all means a lot to me… I mean really a lot…”

Welcome To Belize—The Caribbean’s #1 Retirement Haven

Belize offers a chance to escape the troubles of our world in a
million-dollar setting that you can afford...

I first alerted readers to the many charms of little English-speaking Belize in 1987.

In those days, it was mainly scuba divers, sport anglers, and independent free spirits who invested or made new homes in Belize.

Back then, Belize was rough around the edges. And both Belizeans and expat residents preferred it that way. 

But what a difference 35+ years have made!

You could say the tides have shifted…

Belize today is attracting people from all walks of life...

Some are famous and ridiculously wealthy public figures, like Leonardo DiCaprio, while others are just normal folks like you and me.

The common denominator I can identify among everyone finding his (or her) way to Belize's shores today—from scuba enthusiasts and eco-adventurers to missionaries and billionaire investors—is a desire for a simpler, freer, more private way of life.

With everything going on in the world these days, Belize's back-to-basics lifestyle is almost irresistibly appealing...

And it's attracting a new breed of investors and expats eager to stake their claims. They come seeking escape from the doom and gloom back home.

They come seeking the freedom to live their own lives and to make their own way. They come in search of privacy, for themselves and for their money...

They come in search of paradise.

And they're not disappointed.

Who Are All These Expats Seeking Escape And Safe Haven In Belize?

Leave the hassle behind—Belize is a just reward for a life well spent…
Eve's story is another great example.

Eve spends five to six months a year living part-time on Ambergris Caye, Belize's best-known and most-developed Caribbean lifestyle choice.

Every winter, Eve and her husband look forward to escaping the grueling Canadian winter in San Pedro Town, where they own a small condo on the beach.

It's perfect for them.

Eve's constantly in town, where she knows everyone. She spends her time volunteering.

There's no shortage of opportunities to get involved with the local community here, and Eve takes full advantage. You see her everywhere, at every social event, always with a smile on her face.

Ambergris Caye is quintessential Caribbean, offering all the azure water, white sand, and swaying palm trees your island-loving soul could ask for.

While Belize is popular as a place for total relocation from North America, more and more people are escaping winters back home…

It’s the perfect solution for folks who have families back home—though, given that Belize is only a few hours’ flight from most of the U.S., full time retirees here tell us that family and friends are always eager to visit.

Attention Work-From-Home Types:
You Can Live Here Income-Tax Free

Belize is more than a homerun retirement haven—it’s a true-blue tax haven for entrepreneurs and work-from-home types...
Belize expat Helena Hess was originally attracted to Belize for its diving.

She wasn't even thinking about retirement when she made her first visit to the country.

But the better she got to know Belize, the more she came to appreciate the advantages it offers the would-be retiree.

Helena and her husband Mike bought a piece of land on Ambergris Caye, built a home, and, eventually, looked seriously at Belize's residency options, including its resident-retiree program. 

Their conclusion?

Belize is hard to beat, not only for the Caribbean lifestyle it offers on its islands, but also for how easy it makes it for a foreign retiree to make Belize home.

And a QRP retiree can be as young as 40 years of age! 

Today, Helena lives in Belize full-time with her husband.

He's a full-time resident; she's a QRP. They made their decisions as to which residency option they wanted to pursue independently and, as a result, have been able to take full advantage of the residency benefits Belize has to offer.

Helena and Mike pay no U.S. income taxes on income they earn while living in Belize.

Because they're Americans, they retain a tax obligation Stateside, of course...

However, because they're Americans abroad, residing full-time in Belize, this year they can earn up to $265,800 tax-free  thanks to the “FEIE” (we’ll talk about this more later).

Helena is not liable for taxes in Belize, either, since she's a QRP.

Plus, thanks to their residency statuses, they were able to ship their personal belongings and household goods into the country duty-free…

No Translation Required!
Belize’s Official Language: English

Life’s easier when everyone speaks English, of course, but it also allows you to settle in and make real friends with welcoming locals…
Linda is a professional artist who first visited Belize on a sailing trip.

She and her boyfriend had attended a conference in Panama in 2004.

They drove all around Panama and considered settling in that country, but Linda didn't feel comfortable.

The idea of learning Spanish was just too daunting for her. She couldn't talk to the locals, so she felt unable to connect with them. 

But Belize was a different story from the day they first arrived...

Every day the couple was able to dive, snorkel, and fish among Belize's beautiful Caribbean cayes, all the while making friends with the local Belizeans.

Being able to communicate in English, Linda felt safe and welcome from the start.

After her initial visit, Linda worked out a swap with a resort on Ambergris Caye so she could return. In exchange for free accommodation, she completed a number of paintings for the resort owner.

And, during that five-week trip, she made her decision. Belize would be her new home.

Linda returned to her old home in Monterey, California. It took her a year to sell her house and her art gallery and to prepare for the move.

Today, Linda is a fully-delighted full-time resident of Belize, where she has opened two art galleries.

She divides her time between Ambergris Caye and San Ignacio (in Cayo) and loves both locations and the wonderfully relaxed lifestyle they afford her…

Belize Is Tops When It Comes To A
“Plan B” Or Back-To-Basics…

Away from the coasts and further inland, you can enjoy
the tranquility of Belize’s back-to-basics lifestyle options...
Belize is a top choice if you're interested in a "sustainable life"—an opportunity to live off the grid, completely or partially self-sufficient.

By no coincidence, Belize has an active Mennonite community that has been growing since the 1950s.

The Mennonite Farmers' Markets overflow each week with fresh, organic produce grown locally...

But it’s not just the Mennonites—good friends in this country have been living the sustainable life for four decades, since long before it was a fashionable idea.

In 1977, Mick and Lucy Fleming traveled from Great Britain to Belize.

They had but $600 in their pockets. For Mick and Lucy and Belize, it was love at first sight. They fell in love especially with the country's Cayo District, a region of rain forest, rivers, mountains, and Mayan ruins.

As soon as they could scrape the money together, Mick and Lucy bought a remote piece of property in the Cayo, on the Makal River. And they lived off the land. The only way in to their property back then was on horseback or by canoe, up the river.

That was some 40 years ago and, today, Mick and Lucy have developed their Chaa Creek property into the most impressive and most applauded rain forest eco-resort in the country, rated the Best Eco-Resort in all the Caribbean by Caribbean Travel & Life four years straight.

A visit to Chaa Creek qualifies as a luxury experience these days…
Enjoying the sustainable life doesn’t mean an end of luxury, as Chaa Creek proves…
However, it's still very possible to have the back-to-basics, off-the-grid experience that first attracted Mick and Lucy to this part of Belize so many years ago.

The Cayo District, your best option for this sort if lifestyle, is now the fastest-growing area in the country.

The lush tropical rain forests you find here, the abundant freshwater rivers, the largest underground cave system in the Western Hemisphere, and the fertile Belize River Valley once supported hundreds of thousands of Mayans…

Today, they support 21st-century adventurers and environmentalists looking to escape to a simpler, sweeter life.

But How Much Does It All Cost?

Budgets For Both Sides Of The Country…

As I have explained, Belize offers two main lifestyle options—near the water, on islands and coasts… or inland, among the mountains and rainforests.

You have dozens of specific destinations within these two options, but, just like anywhere else, you’ll generally pay more to be near the sea.

Let’s start with my favorite part of Belize…

A Simple Life Near Rainforests And Waterfalls:

For Only Around $1,000 A Month

A recent Overseas Retirement Index named this place as the “World's Best Small Town”...

It’s a rain forest escape in the Cayo district where expats and Mennonites live together peacefully and sustainably.

You can spend your days relaxing on a hammock or working the land... tubing through river caves with a cooler of beer… or four-wheeling through the jungle to hike up Mayan pyramids...

You’re a couple hours from the coast, but your costs are a fraction of what most expats in the country pay each month:
Chances are that you’ll spend a bit more... a maid will cost you a couple of hundred dollars a month more, for instance.

You could also enjoy a bigger and better located home, as well as faster internet and your own vehicle...

The key to maintaining a low cost of living is getting to know the local vendors, farmers, and suppliers.

Regardless, the thing about life away from the beach is that it’s hard to spend a lot of money...

Life here is simple—you won’t find big electronics stores or jewelry boutiques or fancy wine shops that you might find on the Caribbean coast.

Of course, if you ask the folks living here at the beach, you get well more than what you pay for…

Live In A Caribbean Paradise
For Only $2,500 A Month

Ambergris Caye is the largest of over 200 islands scattered along the eastern Caribbean shores of Belize.

This is quintessential Caribbean...

It’s everything you imagine when you think of a tropical paradise: white sand beaches, palm trees, no cars, and umbrella cocktails in every bar.

The residents of this island are warm and welcoming but also independent.

It’s located near to the Belize Barrier Reef, the second-longest reef in the world and the most spectacular in the Western Hemisphere.
Again, your costs here in Ambergris Caye can vary dramatically in either direction…

Folks we know who own their home here report spending under $1,500 a month…

While other friends spend twice that (and sometimes three to four times more, if you include boat repairs!).

You could add a maid at $12 an hour… or a gym membership (with pool access) for $45 a month…

SCUBA expeditions will set you back $50 a dive, while a bottle of wine starts around $15.

Small Town Pricing, And Small Town Friendliness, Too…

Belize is a tiny country with a population of about 400,000 people. The entire country is like a small town.

It's easy to become part of the community here. Most everyone's friendly, welcoming, and willing to lend a hand for a neighbor.

But it's not only your neighbors who'll go out of their way to make your new life in Belize easy and comfortable…

Take local politicians, for example. In Belize, they mingle. They're happy to talk to you... even to listen!

Take a walk in downtown San Pedro Town on Ambergris Caye any weekend, and you might run into one of them, relaxed and barefoot.

Such a small population almost requires the politicians to stop to chat with their constituents. Many are relatives, friends, and neighbors anyway.

Easy access to a local politician like this really makes a difference, believe me, when you need assistance on a business or an immigration issue.

Local politicians are easily accessible in this country… and so is the local banking industry, which qualifies as seriously user-friendly.

Opening a bank account in Belize is relatively easy compared to other offshore jurisdictions—though you have precious few options. Still, Belize’s modern banking system is protected by a strong central bank, professional banking staff, and strict confidentiality rules.

No need to be a millionaire either. You can open even a nonresident account in Belize with as little as $500… 

“You Are So Much Better Than The Others”

You are so much better than the others out there writing on these same topics. I receive this kind of information from many other sources. None of them compare. They’re all sales letters pitching their next seminars or books or secret stock tips. Anyway, just wanted to let you know you are on the right track. Anyone who makes the comparison between you and the other resources available will choose you.

Entrepreneurs Are Most Welcome

Francis Ford Coppola is one of the most famous entrepreneurs here in Belize—pictured here is his Turtle Inn…
Savvy investors looking to keep their investments and their assets safe are finding their way to Belize's shores in growing numbers…

As are entrepreneurs looking for opportunity.

If I had to choose a single word to describe Belize, it'd be "potential."

Belize is a frontier. A land for pioneers.

The Belize government is doing its part to make modern-day pioneers feel welcome. Opening a business in this country is straightforward and relatively red tape-free.

And, as I mentioned before, you enjoy significant tax advantages when you structure your business properly.

Remember, all transactions take place in English

Plus, Belize's no-nonsense legal system is tied to the Caribbean Court of Justice. This gives many investors and business-owners the comfort of familiarity.

As a result, Belize is enjoying an influx of Americans, Canadians, French, Italians, Brits, Irishmen, and other Europeans, all making their way to this country to stake a claim.

One of the best-known among this group is Francis Ford Coppola, the award-winning American movie director. In the early 1980s, Coppola visited Belize and, like me, fell in love. Like so many others before him and since, he wanted a little piece of Belize of his own. He purchased the abandoned Blancaneaux Lodge.

For more than a decade, Coppola used the resort as a family retreat. In 1993, he opened his tropical paradise to the public.

Mr. Coppola was drawn to Belize by the beauty of the country itself. But, in time, he came to appreciate the advantages of setting up a business here.

And he continues to invest. Coppola bought a second property in Belize, this time in Placencia, in 2001...

The Turtle Inn, located on a white-sand beach that dissolves into the clear Caribbean Sea, "is a personal joy," Francis says. "It features any number of original ideas and details, which, I confess, continue to delight me. I made the resort as rustic as I love and as luxurious as I could."

The open-arms business climate in Belize encourages this kind of innovation and imaginative investment.

Here’s How To Earn $265,800 A Year Tax-Free In Belize   

If you’re an American, this is the lifeline you need for lowering your taxes...

The Foreign Earned Income Exclusion allows you to exclude up to $132,900 in earned income on your taxes if you live and work outside the United States.

If you’re married, you can double that to exclude up to $265,800.

Only certain types of income can be excluded, but if you are working a career remotely or running a business catering to U.S. or global customers, this can be a big, big deal.

We can show you everything you need to know...

Plus: Belize Is A
True-Blue Tax Haven

Belize is a custom-made offshore haven.

That means low taxes, but also privacy and protection.

Indeed, with their Belize Act in 1981, the Brits built themselves a banking haven. They looked around at the top banking havens worldwide at the time and cherry-picked the best elements of the banking laws in each case.

Until that point, Belize had been British Honduras, a colony of the Crown.

Belize now offers two structures specifically designed to help keep your assets safe. The Belize International Business Corporation (IBC) and the Belize Trust are both solid parts of a plan to protect your assets, including from frivolous lawsuits.

Furthermore, a Belize IBC is not subject to income, social security, capital gains, or withholding tax or stamp duty. Nor to gift, death, estate, dividend, distribution, or inheritance tax. And an IBC is not required to file annual returns.

And keep in mind that we’ll never suggest you do anything illegal or not 100% compliant. My point is that you can create a structure in Belize that is fully legal and compliant… and also rock-solid.

So Where In Belize
Might Suit You Best?

Belize is a tiny country, but it's one of the most diverse places in the world...

Knowing you want to live here is the easy part.

Indeed, perhaps the biggest challenge is choosing where exactly in the country might suit you best...

What part of Belize calls to you?

Are you drawn to the pristine sugar-sand cayes, the swaying palm trees, and the aquamarine waters of the Caribbean?

Or would you feel more at home amidst the lush rain forests, the mountainside waterfalls, and the rivers that flow through ceremonial Mayan caves further inland?

Maybe the lively and growing communities, both expat and Belizean, of San Pedro Town or San Ignacio would suit you?

Would you prefer a simple, close-to-nature lifestyle, living fully self-sufficient and off the grid?

Or are you more inclined toward an active and vibrant community in a town that has colorful festivals, trendy restaurants, expat-run cafes, and lively beach bars? 

Are you an entrepreneur looking for a niche to fill? A work-from-home employee looking to (legally) avoid income taxes?

Or a would-be volunteer, looking to give back?

Are you seeking a low-cost, easy-to-obtain retirement residency... part-time escape... or a second passport?

All these things and many others are possible in this beautiful little country.

So how do you choose where is best for you?

How do you learn how to make the most of all the opportunities here?

And how can you meet all the people you need to know to make the move with success?

The only way to answer all those questions is to get on a plane!

And that’s what I’m writing to invite you to do. Come on down to see Belize in the company of me, Live And Invest Overseas’ experts, and 100 of your fellow readers...

How One American Was Able To Retire 8 Years Early—Thanks
To Belize

Great climate… fresh food… a healthy, adventurous lifestyle...

For many, Belize is the good life defined. Take one expat retiree we know in Belize, for example…

"Initially, I was attracted to Belize by its natural beauty and environment, including the opportunity it offers for scuba diving and water sports," Helena explains.

"Thinking back to when this country first got my attention, I realize that, then, I wasn't in a hurry. I had a lucrative career. I wasn't thinking of making an international move. Instead, my husband and I invested in a vacation home on the island of Ambergris Caye. For eight years, we traveled to Belize yearly, to relax and to scuba dive.

"I wanted to be sure before committing to something as dramatic as a move to another country. When I did think about the idea, I mainly considered living in Belize part-time.

"But then came 2008, and everything changed. My best friend and coworker, a 50-year-old senior VP, lost her 'secure' management job. Would I be next? I knew the time had come for me to get serious about making a move, even a full-time one. As more financial and political landmines exploded around me every day, I began to plan my escape.

"In the end, I chose Belize because it provided me with a safe haven in this difficult time. And moving here allowed me to retire eight years earlier than if I had remained in the States.

"Through Belize's QRP program, I obtained my residency in less than four months. That part was easy. The difficult part was making the decision to make the move in the first place.

"Now I live on 'Temptation Island.' Remember the 2001 Fox reality show? The Hollywood producers left Belize long ago, but the beauty and charm of Ambergris Caye remain. This short-lived TV show provided great exposure for this little country! 
"I moved to Belize as a QRP retiree, but I wasn't seeking 'retirement' in any conventional sense. My goal was and is to remain active and to participate fully in life. Now I'm involved in an athletic club on Ambergris. It's easy to stay healthy here, especially as I can work out at the club most days. 

"Perhaps the most important point to be made is that you don't need a big retirement account or income to live the good life here. My husband and I are living a great life, and we get by on much, much less than we were spending to live back in the States.

"As I packed my bags for Belize, I knew that the U.S. economy was in serious trouble. But it wasn't clear how bad it would get in that country. I'm relieved to have escaped in June of 2008. Like everyone else, our investments and 401(k)s took major hits. But my husband and I are OK. The cost of living here is very affordable. And the banks are secure.

"And you don't have to become a full-time expatriate if you don't want to. That's one of the best parts of Belize's QRP program. You can take advantage of the benefits it offers even if you spend only a few weeks a year in the country.

"Most North Americans realize that their quality of life is declining. At the same time, countries that once seemed remote are now within easy reach. And they have much to offer.

"We pay a high price to reside in North America. For many, the price has become too high. I'm one of those people.
"But I understand how intimidating the idea of relocating abroad can be at first. Again, that's a big part of the reason Belize makes so much sense. It has one of the easiest foreign residency programs in the world.

"It also allows for a quality of life that, for my husband and me, is the biggest benefit of having made this move. I love the small-town environment here. We don't have movie theaters, galleries, and the sophisticated things you get in a big city.

“But the island is truly beautiful. We spend a lot of time outdoors.

"And we enjoy a rich social life. It is easy to get to know people, and there are many volunteer activities to get involved with. Music is big, as are festivals and special events. Most music is free, and everyone, it seems, is a musician…"

[This event is] Definitely a 10+! Answered sooo many questions in a wide variety of areas. Everyone willing to meet with you, talk to you, answer questions, etc.

Success Is About Preparation—
And It’s About Who You Know…

When you join us for our Live And Invest In Belize Conference, you'll learn everything you need to know about moving and living here...

After four decades spending time in Belize, I’ve met countless people here… 

Some were a waste of time (when we meet, ask me about that one drunk and naked real estate agent)…

Some were probably scam artists (like the “developer” I met in a bar who told me “Kathleen Peddicord vetted this project”—he had apparently never seen a picture of me)…

But, over time, I’ve been able to build an inner circle of experts whom I personally trust.

And I’m pleased to report that they’ve all agreed to help you…

With everyone on board, we’ve put together an A+ program.

At our Live And Invest In Belize Conference, we'll introduce you to:

 Philip Hahn 

Property Investor and Belize Expat
Phil first came to Belize in 2003 to inspect 115 acres of land on the northern coast. He fell in love with the people and the country and immediately purchased the parcel.

Phil is also a Past President of the American Chamber of Commerce in Belize.

Whatever’s happening in Belize, Phil and his broad network of family, friends, and colleagues know about it. Whatever you want to do in Belize, Phil will know how and who can help.

He traded that lifetime of work in NYC which included sales, language training, fieldwork for a private investigator, several years as a bartender, all after earning a BA in Anthropology from the City College of NY—for a life of gardening, enjoying his collection of 300 books, cooking, and admiring the Belizean landscape while enjoying a Scotch on his deck.

Kathleen Peddicord

Overseas Retirement Expert and Founder of Live and Invest Overseas
My name is Kathleen Peddicord.

I’ve been covering this beat, researching, writing, speaking, and presenting on the opportunities for living, retiring, and investing overseas, for more than three decades.
I have moved children, staff, enterprises, household goods, and pets from the East Coast of the United States first to Waterford, Ireland… then to Paris, France… next to Panama City, Panama… and, most recently, we’ve flipped the switch to a new stage of our lives that has us moving around the world regularly with Paris and Panama City as complementary home bases.

I have traveled to more than 75 countries, invested in real estate in 23, established businesses in 7, and renovated historic properties in 6. I’ve written seven books (including “How To Retire Overseas” and “How To Buy Real Estate Overseas” published by Penguin and Wiley, respectively).

I’ve also appeared dozens of times on television and radio (everything from Bloomberg and CNBC to Fox News and the Regis Philbin Show), detailing opportunities for living, retiring, and investing all around the world.

In other words, I know what I’m talking about… and I am keen to help you discover a new life in Belize… or wherever else might be perfect for you…

*Please note that speakers can be subject to change.

Kathleen, I have to say that you seem to dig deeper into the feel of a particular place and to do comparative analysis between alternative places. Your approach is more sophisticated and thoughtful and therefore more useful than that of other information sources covering these same subjects.

‐‐John W., United States

In Addition, 

 You’ll Also Meet And Hear From:

Doctors and medical professionals from the local hospitals and health care facilities…
check
Our recommended local real estate agents (with long experience helping foreigners buy and rent property in this country)…
check
Expat-entrepreneurs running successful businesses that are funding their Belize adventures…
check
Current expats and retirees who made the move from North America and Europe… people who have made plenty of mistakes but have also enjoyed great success here…

Current expats and retirees who made the move from North America and Europe… people who have made plenty of mistakes but have also enjoyed great success here…
Plus, at our Live and Invest in Belize Conference, we’ll also introduce you to the people behind communities in the most appealing regions of this beautiful country… from the beaches to the rainforests, and everything in between.

We’ll walk you through a detailed and fully itemized budget for living in Belize, both as a property owner and as a renter. In fact, we’ll present you with more than one budget, because the cost of living on Ambergris Caye, for example, would be quite different from that out in the Cayo.

“Many of the attendees have become great friends”

Very impressed with Live and Invest Overseas staff and organization, presenters and speakers. Excellent overall. All my questions were answered and all presentations were very comprehensive and informative, covering every conceivable subject regarding Belize… Thank you for the opportunity. Many of the attendees have become great friends.

‐‐Paul Tentschert, United States

What About Buying Property?

Buying a home overseas can be the best deal of your life… or it can be a nightmare. We’ll show you what you need to know to ensure success…
We’ve been scouting, researching, and performing due diligence on renting and buying for more than a dozen years…

We know who’s doing what… and who’s doing something he shouldn’t be doing.

We know who is building dream homes by the beach and who’s the subject of serial horror stories.
So, who do we want to recommend to you?

We understand that every speaker and exhibitor we introduce to you comes with our implied endorsement.

We don’t take that lightly. Our reputation is everything. We want you to be wowed by the quality of this event…

We’re in this for the long haul with you.

But the same can’t be said for all the real estate developers in this part of the world…

We’re careful, because we’ve learned you’ve got to be. That’s why, for this event, we’re inviting but a handful of developers.

These are the guys we want you to know, for theirs are the development projects worth your attention… and your investment.

“You Have Made A Lot of Dreams Come True”

Thank you for all your hard work. You have made a lot of dreams come true. I am always telling people about you and how you started your publications years ago. In fact, I just today told my banker about how honest and smart you are, letting us know where to go. Wish I had listened to you more years ago…

‐‐Marlene M., United States

At this Live And Invest In Belize Conference, you’ll have a chance to experience Belize with all your senses…

And to do alongside dozens of experts who want to help you and answer every question you have.

It’s an all-in-one solution that’ll save you time and money—and that’s been proven over the past 15 years we’ve hosted this event.

Indeed, it’s due to the feedback of 1,500+ attendees we’ve hosted over all these years that we’re confident to offer a 100% Money-Back Satisfaction Guarantee.

Look at events hosted anywhere else in the world, and you’ll learn that such a guarantee is unheard of…

But that’s just how confident we are after so many years and after helping so many people here in Belize.

This will be a high-energy, full-throttle set of days… 

But we’ll do everything we can to make sure it’s also a whole lot of fun...

We’re building in (open bar!) cocktail receptions, coffee breaks, open-air parties, and other special events to give you as much opportunity as possible to mingle and mix with your fellow attendees, with our Live And Invest Overseas panel of experts, and with all the Belize expats we’ve invited to join us.

We’d all be delighted to have you join us…

And to provide you with the insights you need to make every decision informed and with confidence.

Founding Publisher, Live and Invest Overseas

P.S. As one full-time Belize retiree told me, “We Baby Boomers don’t usually retire, per se…

“We transition. My husband knew I would drive him crazy if I didn’t have something to do after I left my corporate job. I think I am busier now than ever, running the fitness club, setting up a real estate business, teaching salsa aerobics, trying my hand at travel writing… but it is so much more fun and interesting than my previous life.

“There is a real sense of community here in this place that I have never experienced before. Big cities are busy and remote. You never see your neighbor. Now, everywhere I go, I know people. It is a very satisfying way to live…”

This is your chance to discover for yourself what expats here have already discovered: Belize is a special country holding particular and timely advantages right now… 

You should see what I’m talking about firsthand.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Belize is a remarkable place… it’s stunning natural wonderland… and it offers an incredible opportunity to upgrade your lifestyle at a lower price than most places in the world.

    However, no place is perfect…

    Belize, for instance, is not a fully modernized country. For many people, that is plus—it means less regulations and more privacy, to start.

    But it also means that there is a clear difference between "how things are supposed to go" according to internet research… and "how things actually go."

    Thousands of people from all over the world are fine with or even prefer these differences…

    But for others—those who did not have the advantage of attending the Live And Invest In Belize Conference—it can lead to disappointment and resentment… and a lot of wasted time and money.

    That is all to say, we’re not going to try and “sell” you the idea of living in Belize.

    We’re going to show you the REAL Belize. And that includes the downsides, so you can be fully prepared and decide whether they’re a deal breaker for you or not.

    If, therefore, you want to find your piece of paradise in a beautiful, friendly, and affordable country, while also learning what life here might truly be like…

    Then, YES, this is the event for you.

    You’ll walk away from the Live And Invest In Belize Conference with the knowledge, support, and contacts necessary to make a move or investment with confidence…

Here’s what past attendees at this event have had to say about their experience at the Live And Invest In Belize Conference:

 “You are so much better than the others out there writing on these same topics. I receive this kind of information from many other sources. None of them compare. They’re all sales letters pitching their next seminars or books or secret stock tips. Anyway, just wanted to let you know you are on the right track. Anyone who makes the comparison between you and the other resources available will choose you.”
