Typically these degrees have great scholarship options (you can often get tutition remission) and will also develop the practical ability of interpreting contemporary trends and movements in the economy - some university faculty will even work with you to help you explore your particular interest (ie, real estate).MBA degrees will just have you do pointless group projects and case studies and you will pay the equivalent of a mortgage for it (but with no house!).

Here are some things to consider:1) Climate: Miami has a tropical climate 365 days of the year.2) Cultural Diversity: Miami is a melting pot of different cultures.

Two reasons Gandy is a great divide....flood areas and history of MacDill base/port housing.The historic Port of Tampa attracted a lot of the riff raff significant port areas typically attract (not really the case anymore as few ships come in and out of there now and definitely not sailors like there used to be 100 years ago...but homes were built and the culture initiated).  

I guess it's a culture difference.

I disagree with the entire cultures obsession with sending kids to college (this isn't DR specific.) 

They are a contradiction to what you would expect of the movement.The cultural desire to have everything for nothing may be your biggest hurdle.

Basically what I'm looking for are the countries that would be the easiest to get started in, I'm not fluent in Spanish but I have basic proficiency and I'm comfortable enough I think with the cultures in the countries I've been to where I'm able to see myself doing this but I have never dealt with anything like this before in terms of investing in a country so I'm a little lost as to how to evaluate one country against another.I've narrowed it down to Mexico, Central America, Caribbean or Colombia.

I worry sometimes folks that are paying attention or reviewing things on a quarter is behind the curve in an Amazon culture of I need it now. 

Austin is not an easy cash flow market, but overall it has strong economic growth, population growth, and cultural strengths to power it for decades to come.

@Rebecca Oliver - Every town is going to be different, have its own culture, and its own level of adaptability to growth/change.
