Website Offers ‘Unique' Perspective To Retirement In The Islands of The Bahamas

MIAMI, Florida -- If there's one dream many of us share, it is to someday retire and enjoy the fruits of our labor --- perhaps to one of the 700 tropical Islands which make up The Bahamas.

For years The Bahamas was thought of as a favorite retirement destination for the rich and famous. Now, there's a website that shows how, with proper planning, anyone can retire there. Launched in November 2001, The Bahamas Report demystifies the process. Following is an excerpt from one of the site's most popular articles, written by Winston D. Munnings, Publisher & Editor.

7 Reasons For Retiring In The Bahamas….
PROXIMITY - As The Bahamas is just a 30 minutes flight from the U. S. Mainland, it's like having your cake and eating it too. No other Caribbean destination can make that claim.

CLIMATE - The Bahamas has a semi-tropical maritime climate that has to be personally experienced. Its so-called hot days are not quite as hot, thanks to the trade winds that protect the Islands.

OPTIONS - Perhaps the one attribute that is truly unique about The Bahamas is its diversity. The Bahamas is not a One-Island Nation-State like other popular Caribbean destinations. Instead, it's a Nation-State of 700 Islands with some 2,000 Islets and Cays that extend over an area of around 100,000 square miles.

LANGUAGE - You can't beat living in a country where communication is the least of one's worry or concern. English is the spoken language throughout the Islands of The Bahamas.

CURRENCY - For almost thirty years now (since February 1973) the Bahamian dollar has been on par with the U.S. dollar.

STABILITY - With a long history of peaceful constitutional change, The Bahamas has enjoyed almost three hundred years as a Parliamentary Democracy.

FUN - Why retire if you can't have fun? The Bahamas is a fun place and people are still saying "It's Better In The Bahamas."
