Don't worry, I don't want to own land in Mexico. Not sure where i'm retiring yet. Think I will rent for six months at a time at first. I don't think the cartels own all the land in Mexico, because I know some expats that own land there. Croatia is another place I am considering. The rents are pretty reasonable there also. The ocean is beautiful there. Originally Posted by SassySueif expats own land there, its ikely that they married a mexican who can own land in their name.

Biggest issue is getting your money out of the USofA. The illegal and unconstitutional government tabs on your bank accounts under the false flag of fighting criminal activity makes it much more difficult. Amazing how you can go to jail just because you want to use your money however you see fit.

It's absolutely not worth the risk to transfer the money out of the USA and then not report it. If they catch you they will make you pay more than total amount in your foreign accounts, and a jail sentence is a possibility.

2dogs is technically correct,No, he's not. "Technically" Mexico is part of North America. Its right in the definition. Google it.
Mexico is in Central America as a region even though it is in North America as a continent. Originally Posted by dilbert firestorm

Mexico isn't part of anything "as a region". Google Central America. That doesn't include Mexico either.
You are unable to separate the fact that it is Spanish speaking from the fact that it is in North America. So you lump it in with Central America.
North America contains three major language groups, English, Spanish, and French (Quebec).
Central America is the group of small countries between the southern borders of Mexico and Columbia. It does NOT include Mexico. Originally Posted by Revenant
