Thanks Alonzo. My wife and I are hosting a small Summit with our neighbors tonight to discuss Panama as a retirement option. We'll use some of this content. Good day.
Hi James and thanks so much for watching. That's amazing! Anyone who can get family members, friends or in your case neighbors to also make the move is in for an unbelievable experience. Life here would be great regardless but having those treasured people here with you would be priceless! I'm just curious... what other countries are you and your neighbors considering? Please shoot me an email at: chosenfewexpats.gmail.com I'm very interested to see how this goes. I pray other groups of friends, families and neighbors can be inspired by this.
I also wanted to mention regarding my 15 Negatives of Living in Panama video. I didn't do a good enough job there to more clearly state that those are mostly annoyances as opposed to true negatives. That video is not intended to discourage anyone from considering Panama as an expat destination but more so just to provide some balance and perspective on the reality.
If you are planning to retire in Panama we can help with Panama Residency Visa. Typical processing time is 6 months. We have an expedited service that takes 6 weeks or less.
Hi Ro! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. Yes, there are many other reasons but we have to limit it somewhat. People have super short attention spans these days. Just curious, what other things would you have placed on this list?
Hi Marlette! Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words. Are you considering a move to Panama? Since releasing this video, we've had the pre-Launch for our Panama Relocstion Online Course. Please check out our website if interested. panamarelocationonlinecourses.com
Hi Kevin and thanks for watching. You're welcome my brother. Congrats on your upcoming move. Stay tuned for more information. Also, please consider joining us on Patreon for several additional benefits or a personal consultation as your move approaches.

Hi Theresa and thanks for watching. You should! Panama is an amazing place to live and checks a LOT of boxes. Please don't be turned off by our Negatives of Living in Panama video as those items are mostly annoyances. No place is perfect but Panama Isa fantastic option.
Downsides: Many parasitic insects (mosquitoes, ticks, ect.) Animals are usually larger Snow and cold climates cannot happen. There are many jellyfish that get beached, which can be dangerous. Im not tryna hate, just stating facts .
Thanks again for your support. We do exactly that... deal with it. The dry season isn't very humid and there was a drought this year at the start of rainy season but now things have ramped up. I think you body adjusts to it over time. I don't sweat nearly as much as I did when we moved here. You just have to avoid being out for long periods in direct sun in the early afternoon. Otherwise, it's not too bad.
Hi Pam. Consider enrolling in our Panama Relocation Online Course. We are currently offering a deep discount during our Pre-launch phase. You receive a number of documents to download as well as detailed video instruction which include our checklists from 2 years out up to moving day. You can access the course enrollment information from our website: www.panamarelocationonlinecourses.com/ Please also send me an email to discuss your particular case, timing for moving, etc.
Hi and thanks for watching. I'm with you 100%. I''mnot a Starbucks person and have never been much of a coffee drinker. I can't stand paying $5 for a cup of coffee. 🤣🤣
Thanks for watching our video Kevin and for your comment. Housing will almost always be your biggest expense. Just like anywhere else, how much you spend depends totally on your needs and wants. You definitely get more for your money. You can rent a nice apartment near the beach for $800. You can rent a condo on the beach, a condo overlooking the bay in Panama City or really nice house with a pool near the beach for $1200. You can rent a home in a Panamanian neighborhood or in the mountains for $600 or less. You could also rent a $3000 per month condo. It's all up to you.
The murder rate is low, about 11 per 100,000 people for the whole country. That's on par with a place like Tucson, Arizona. By comparison, the murder rate in St. Louis is 66 per 100,000 people. There is a low rate of violent crime in Panama. Also, very few people own guns. It's mostly burglaries when people are away from home for long stretches or petty theft here.
Thanks for watching. You may have missed it but I mentioned in the video that no hurricane has ever hit Panama. It's below the hurricane belt and is one reason why Panama's location is perfect.
Are there concerns from you over crime and abduction? I keep hearing about Dutch girls abducted in Panama. Do you have knowledge of this? Have you been accosted at all over being an American?
No concerns whatsoever. I've never heard anything about any abductions. In Colombia, yes but not Panama. Your only concerns for crime are petty theft if you leave your items laying around unattended or possible break ins if you leave your home unattended for months at a time. Panamanians are nice and generally treat foreigners well. We've only been well received. Being back, most Panamanians think we're Panamanians anyway.
@@ChosenFewExpats Yes, that certainly is an advantage although many Panamanians look as though they have a substantial amount of European blood in them as well. Truly a diverse group.
Abductions in Panama are nearly non existent....the case of the dutch girls was a different thing, with a lot of crazy theories going around. They went to a trail without a guide and they took a route that wasnt part of the trail (maybe they want to explore more, or they got confuse), at the ends, they got lost on the jungle and die there.Moral of the story, dont go to a forest/jungle alone, in a foreign country, without guide and decide to go out from the beaten path.
Hi Kelsey. Thanks for taking the time to watch our video. Yes, October is still dry season. Panama's Independence Days are in early November so that wouldn't be a good time if you plan on traveling to the beaches. The traffic will pose some problems during that time.
Looks like you are sitting or standing with your arms by your side. Consider news anchor style. Table in front of you and your forearms on it. This stance makes you look very stiff. Hopefully, taken in the spirit I intended brotha. Love the videos.
Hi Marilynn. Thanks for watching and for your feedback. It's not encouraged by any RUclips experts for content creators to sit with their forearms on a desk news anchor style. It is encouraged by those experts for people to be able to see your hands make occasional gestures. Pulling the shot back so you can see my hands and arms instead of just my shoulders and chest would help the correct the stiff look. However, I tend to prefer a tighter, facial shot. Thanks again for pointing this out. It's honestly not something I'm focused on. I'm focused much more on delivering truthful, beneficial content. Thanks again for your support!
@@ChosenFewExpats Do you bro. but I watch lots of youtube and people sit a variety of ways but they tend to look relaxed not like they are standing in a line up. Works for you then it works for you. You have a channel and I don't. Take care.

Looks like you are sitting or standing with your arms by your side. Consider news anchor style. Table in front of you and your forearms on it. This stance makes you look very stiff. Hopefully, taken in the spirit I intended brotha. Love the videos.
Hi Marilynn. Thanks for watching and for your feedback. It's not encouraged by any RUclips experts for content creators to sit with their forearms on a desk news anchor style.
It is encouraged by those experts for people to be able to see your hands make occasional gestures. Pulling the shot back so you can see my hands and arms instead of just my shoulders and chest would help the correct the stiff look. However, I tend to prefer a tighter, facial shot.
Thanks again for pointing this out. It's honestly not something I'm focused on. I'm focused much more on delivering truthful, beneficial content.
Thanks again for your support!
@@ChosenFewExpats Do you bro. but I watch lots of youtube and people sit a variety of ways but they tend to look relaxed not like they are standing in a line up. Works for you then it works for you. You have a channel and I don't. Take care.
