   I just ran across your website and I’m reading some of the articles. Nice! Thank you for being there for us “Gringos” contemplating a move south of the border!

   I speak a little Spanish already, but I just enrolled in a beginning class at the local college that will end in mid-December. I would then like to go down to Centro de Idiomas in Mazatlan for a month for the total immersion experience. At that time, I would also like to look around, talk to the locals, find a place to rent furnished by the month and maybe start with a Mexican Attorney to get my FM-3 started.

   My question is…

   I have X-number of dollars in the bank which would give me an income of $3,000 a month for years. I understand I could “live like a King” for that with rent, utilities, a maid, groceries and cable TV & DSL maybe for my computer. I am highly adaptable and can adjust my comfort level. Can I live near the beach with access to a swimming pool and have my expenses above handled for $2,000 a month? I would like to go to a movie and eat out once or twice a week too. I would need my apartment to be FURNISHED.

   What do you think?

   A Mexican Attorney to start the FM-3 process… Know of anyone trustworthy?

   I know that one person’s comfort level may be unacceptable to another, but hopefully I’ve given you something more than just something “vague” to go on.

   Eagerly awaiting your reply,

   Thank you,
