PROMISES ARE A LIE: Nothing is Free, esp. Their Gifts

I subscribed to the mag for several years. September 2023 I attended "Go Abroad" seminar in Denver $950. Left seminar head spinning with so many conflicting details. It was impossible to sort out answers to the questions I had about taxes and moving. One speaker would say taxes are offset by credits then the next speaker would say USCitizens are on the hook. Reference materials were outdated and mostly reprints from previously published articles. They push risky investment strategies like crypto and creating LLC to avoid taxes. Worst of all, they never stop trying to sell you staff by using the cheapest tactics...long emails promising a free book only if you pay for something. LIES! Nothing is given

False Claims

How to cruise around the globe in a luxury cabin for only $37 per day. Glamorous entertainment, elegant balcony cabins, and cruisers love the five-star treatment: “the service was just perfect”.This and all the other LURES are nonsense. I was a long time subscriber and I am a long time, long rang cruiser. These claims are to have you sign up. There are laws I believe to prevent these false claims. If I am incorrect, please feel free to contact me privately or publicly giving a SINGLE example.

Subscribed Very little actual info

Subscribed Very little actual info. What do you get for a paid subscription? A lot of ads for lectures and info sessions that are additional cost. Waste of money

As with other reviewers - It’s a SCAM

As with other reviewers, and former subscribers, I was very disappointed by what a scam International Living is. They constantly send you emails and snail-mails hocking some BS investments. As others have also said, it is not easy to quit their scam. Shame on them.

Fast Track Europe Conference 2024

Fast Track Europe Conference 2024 in PortugalFirst time at an actual conference, although I have subscribed and purchased many publications over the past twenty years. It was not inexpensive, but I feel I got my money's worth. The speakers brought a number of items to my attention that I had not considered. I now have a much better understanding of the countries and their cultures, and more importantly, the preparations I can make to ease a practical transition to residing in France, Greece, Italy, Portugal or Spain, or possibly Montenegro, Croatia, Czechia, or Ireland.

One issue of this magazine is enough

One issue of this magazine is enough. We subscribed while it was still issued in print. The informative is repetitive and nothing you can't find online for free. It is also unrealistic, you can't live anywhere in Europe at the prices they claim. One poster claims he has subscribed for over 30 years. Maybe he can't figure out how to unsubscribe...

Resolved the placement of my ad

I did finally receive a response and submitted my ad on Mar 6. I was also given a second free month for my ad for my trouble So I am glad that this issue is now resolved.

Scammed again

They got me too!!! I took out a subscription and made the payment, guilty here.. But now I cant get away from these people. They billed me a second time, used my credit card without my authorization and continue numerous unwanted emails. I found their product to be inferior, basically worthless but am now spending hours of my time trying to disassociate from these people!! You have been warned.

Attended the Fast Track Panama…

Attended the Fast Track Panama conference. This was well organized, provided insightful information and covered useful topics. The speakers were knowledgeable and approachable. Everyone was very open to sharing information and lessons learned from their own experiences. Being introduced to reliable professionals for real estate, legal and medical needs was a bonus. This conference was better than we had hoped for. As a result of this positive experience, we now have plans to attend another Fast Track.

Be wary of some of the offered Real Estate Tours

Overall the conference was very useful but there were a couple of items that disappointed. First, nearly half of the Sunday afternoon session was devoted to hyping the living in Costa Rica . I assume this is because there is an upcoming Fast Track Costa Rica Conference. The second item was that there were Real Estate tours offered both before and after the conference. We, my wife and I, signed up for the Kathy Canton Real Estate Tour after the conference. It was listed as an all-day tour lasting from 8:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. for $250.00 per person. The night before the tour we got an e-mail stating the the tour would start at 9:00 A.M.. I assumed that it would still last until at least 6:00 P.M. or later. Boy, was I wrong, the tour ended at around 2:00 P.M. Considering we spent an hour of that time at lunch it really ended up being only a half-day tour and yet we paid $500.00 for a full day tour for two people. I would not recommend anyone taking the Kathy Canton tour. It really was not worth the money.
