I know one dude who moved to the belize area and opened up a t-shirt shop, wears flip flops and smokes ganja all the time.

One of my bartender friends moved to the Virgin Islands to open a bar. I'm going to visit soon.

He didn't tell anyone until 5 days before he moved. We had a going away party Mardi Gras day and he was on a plane the next morning.



He just snapped me this

Yes an orthodontist. He moved to the USVI, bought a huge mtnside seafront multihome and spent part of the year living there and renting out the front. Within the first part of his second year there he awoke one night believing himself to have heartburn. Took antacids and went back to sleep. Died in his sleep due to a massive heart attack. Sad. 3 school age kids and a wife who didn't know how to manage all the businesses.

I know Brian Flanagan did once to Jamaica to work at a bar. He came back once he met a rich woman though.

Buddy of mine is a construction PM for a company that builds hotels and got assigned to build 2 hotels in the Virgin Islands. Been down there for 3 years and I think has 2 to go.

Makes great money and lives the absolute life.

LOL, ask my sister about "living in the islands". She'll tell you its great the first year or so, then "island life" gets old. quickly.


And she lived in St.Thomas USVI.
