Damn I just saw this. I love Costa Rica so much that I bought 2 properties there in 2006 right before we had the Economic Collapse and I lost my car business due to non pay's on buy here pay here loans. I had 4 acres up on Playa Blanca near Punta Arenas in the Province of Guanacaste, within walking distance of a beautiful white sand beach, and I had a Condo on Jaco Beach. I lost both of them and also my House in Miami a year later, had to down size into a supplement store and the rest is history. It is an amazing country, except for that rainy season that is insane lol.

What a story, thank you for sharing. Sorry for your loses. We need to talk more, I've been through the ringer also, think we would have a lot more in common. I stayed in Guanacaste at the Riu. Such an amazing country and would love to have a place there one day.
That is what makes us be able to tolerate incredibly stressful situations in the future. I am glad I experience a lot of it early in my life to prepare me for anything to come in the future. Did you do any fishing? I love fishing and never got a chance to go the times I was there but saw people catching huge snooks right off the rocks near Jaco Beach.
I say the same thing. Glad I went through it early and not at a worse time. It really was all a blessing because I learned and came into such great perspective that I wouldn't not want to know. I would not want to go back to the times before without the knowledge and clarity I received during those "down times".
