My name is Jon Baker and i am a medic in the US Army currently stationed in Germany, working at the largest american military hospital outside of the US, taking care of our wounded service members from Iraq and Afganistan.

Do we as Americans believe everything they say?

Here are a few suggestions…***Tip alert***Let’s say that you have $2000 at your disposal and you have either online access or there is a Bank of American and a CB&T banks in your town.

Americans can only spend money they don't have for so long.

For instance, I know that I do not feel very safe wandering around by myself in many latin American Countries as both cultural attitudes and laws have not seemed to progress much in those countries.

Luckily, I love bargain hunting so was able to do a champagne redo on a beer budget (American beer at that!!)

But maybe you were referring to the game Americans refer to as billiards and most call pool.

@loki:Americans can indeed own property in Mexico either directly outside the "Restricted Zone" or via a guaranteed trust within the "Restricted Zone".The "Restricted Zone" is defined as any area within 100Km of Mexico's International land borders and within 50Km of Mexico's coastline.Residential and commercial financing can now be obtained through American banks and American Title is used, which is great for investors here in the US.I'm always open to questions and dialog. so feel free to ask.Thanks for the welcome.

I am a professional real estate investor from Florida (originally from Australia) and I am looking to team up with an American Citizen to do some investing in Charlotte North Carolina.I have located several great properties- heavily discounted in good areas, that I plan to re-hab and flip.Elisa G

Bad for Americans who want to go across the pond or anywhere else for that matter (sadly, even Canada).
