Imagine- What if?
Billy and Akaisha Kaderli
Just for kicks I ran some
numbers. What if I would have been able to
receive in a lump sum on the day I retired
back in 1991, all of my social security
money that I and my employers contributed to
my account? What if? I was impressed. In
fact I was really impressed.

Chapala, Mexico
Billy and Akaisha Kaderli
The north shore of Lake
Chapala, Mexico is one of the premier
retirement destinations for North Americans.
We have been living here off and on since
1993, and there have been many changes to
what used to be a sleepy town of 40,000. For
the most part, those changes have been good
ones. Take a look!

- A Whale on the Beach in Chacala!
Gotcha! - Yes, there is a
"whale" on the beach in Chacala - It's
almost a liter of beer sold in the beachside
restaurants -- called a Ballena (Bah-YAYN-uh).
A "mondo" sized beer for a better price than
to purchase beers individually. Billy
explains.
Monte Alban, Oaxaca, Mexico
Billy and Akaisha Kaderli
Situated on an
artificially-leveled mountain 400 meters
(1,315 ft) above the Oaxaca Valley, in
southern Mexico, Monte Albán was once the
holy city of more than 30,000 Zapotecs (who
called themselves the cloud people). It is
the area's most interesting and extensively
excavated ruin, yet it is estimated that
only about 10% of the site has yet been
uncovered. Monte Albán traces its history to
about 500 B.C.
The Streets of Oaxaca, Mexico
Billy and
Akaisha Kaderli
When visiting Oaxaca,
Mexico, guidebooks will tell you that your
first stop should be the Mayan ruins of
Monte Alban, or to go to a mezcal
distillery. Mezcal is the pride of Oaxaca,
like Tequila is the love and major product
of the state of Jalisco.

Tale... Chacala, Nayarit, Mexico
Billy and
Akaisha Kaderli
Chacala - both the town and
the beach - isn't that big. You can walk the
full beach from one end to the other in
about 20-30 minutes. Restaurants, bars,
cafes and individual vendor stands line the
beach, facing the ocean.

Money Never Sleeps
Billy and Akaisha Kaderli
Just because you retire, your
money doesn’t have to. In the words of
Gordon Gecko from the 1987 movie Wall
Street, “money never sleeps.” And your money
definitely won’t once you leave your job.
We Want Millennials to Be Financially
Independent! - And They Can!
Billy and Akaisha
Kaderli
It seems the Financially
Independent, Retire Early (FIRE) movement is
gaining momentum. We think this is great! It
is our belief that becoming financially
independent is one of the best things you
can do for yourself and for the world.
