Economical Advantages for Retirees in Panama

Jacksonville.com published an article last week with the title of “Panama: Land of Mountains, Oceans, Scotch and Cheap Beer”.

The article taps into some of the smaller differences that exist in Panama like $3 six-packs of beer, cheap taxis and transportation, inexpensive healthcare, and widely-available high-speed Internet throughout the country. 

Panama has developed a very international tourist industry in recent years.  The area has been highly “Americanized”, with wide use of the U.S. dollar.  Additionally, the country offers cheap drinks, an upbeat nightlife, and a relaxed atmosphere.  Residents and those who have relocated to the area are offered many daily non-stop flights from major U.S. cities, Europe and Canada.  There is also a low crime rate and a strong banking system – with the most stable economy in Latin America. 

• Retiree advantages, if able to obtain a visa by proving $500 income per month, include:
  
• up to 50% off of entertainment expenses
  
• up to 25% off at restaurants
  
• 30% discount on transportation – bus, boat, train
  
• 25% discount on airline tickets
  
• 10% off of prescriptions
  
• 15% off of healthcare visits
  
• 50% off of real estate closing costs
  

Additionally, Panama does not tax offshore income, making the location truly an economical paradise.
