you may have already been there. we recently found out the lady next door who took care of the house for us was renting it out, getting $ 800/week for Semana Santa. She no longer has the keys. It's near Playa Carrillo, Guanacaste.

Own in Manhattan
Rent in Paris

The equation goes back and forth but I probably spend 80% of the year in Europe these days.

I don't have extra homes to travel to.. but have multiple homes as rentals..

On a good market, I'll liquidate and reinvest into our core business..

This list is almost 10 years old. Do you think it's still accurate?
