Buying Property in Ecuador

Buying Property in Ecuador 



Retirement Hell,  Retirement Heaven.  You Pick.

Vacant Beach Front Land

When was the last time someone lied to you?




Hurts, doesn’t it?


How about the last time you loaned someone money and they didn’t pay you back?




Think back, we’ve all done it.


Remember that friend you helped? You co-signed his car loan and he never made even one payment. I did the same thing.


Life is full of these little disappointments.




But thank god all that is behind you…. You don’t even hold a
resentment toward those people. You are retired now, and life is good.





In fact, you have never felt so good. You are healthy, have money in
the bank and a nice monthly income, and you have moved south to a lovely
little village on the coast of South America. No more mistakes for you.
Just fun and relaxation.





At this moment, your life is perfect....http://www.ecuadorgeorge.com/buying-property-in-ecuador-2/#.VCd2hePeWY8.facebook

ECUADOR NEWS MAGAZINE: Ecuador rejects statement made by the USA

ECUADOR NEWS MAGAZINE: Ecuador rejects statement made by the USA: Official Statement Ecuador news magazine - The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Human Mobility of Ecuador rejects the assertions found in...September 15, 2014.



Ecuador
believes that issues related to the World Drug Problem must be addressed
in a multilateral framework, in accordance with international law and
respecting the sovereignty of the States.




Unilateral
pronouncements on this and other issues have not been and will not be
accepted by the international community nor by Ecuador.




The
document issued by the White House acknowledges that the United States
is the largest consumer of drugs and, therefore, the main destination of
illicit drugs in the world.




The Foreign
Ministry recalled that the last World Drug Report of the United Nations
Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) said that Ecuador is one of 10
countries with the greatest success in the fight against the World Drug
Problem, through the effective control of its seaports.




The
Government reiterates its commitment to the implementation of sovereign
policies that privilege the interests and health of its population under
the constitutional principles of the Good Living.
