  That is a tough one.

  All things considered, I MIGHT goto Isle of Man.  Many people who have never been to the Isle of Man are not sure exactly where it is! The answer is that it lies in the Irish Sea, between England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales, less than 60 miles west of the Lancashire coastline, and it is easy to get to thanks to excellent air and sea services.

  All in all it seems like a good tax haven, though others may not agree.

  But then after awhile, I'd get bored and come back!

  Maybe 6 months there, until the fever died down.

  Thats interesting Timmer. Being that I was born in Scotland It's sort of close to my birthplace. The beer is good but the climate isnt what I call great . The people are always friendly and fun to be around . Two things  that are a must are a raincoat and snowsuit. I should be back in England in about 2 weeks so maybe I can give a weather update.

   

   Good Luck,

  Blackie.

  I have no idea.  Assume you are talking about a very large jackpot if it's "anywhere" so I guess I would travel a lot. There are too many beautiful places to list, so I'd have to name the countries I don't want to visit. Iran is high on the list. As far as the United States goes, I would pick a spot that has low crime, no traffic jams and friendly neighbors.  I enjoy the sunshine in FL but I really miss a cool mountain breeze and the change of seasons, so I think Western NC might be the place..Flat Rock maybe.  It's really hard to say until I've lived in a place for a while.

  Hi LottoMike.  I think you've asked this before but it's interesting what people will say.

  I like alot of places around the world .  Holland , Russia ( believe it or not ) Brazil, Thialand, Singapore, Ukraine, Switzerland , United Kingdom , the list goes on but I can tell you this. The people that actually live in these places , most want to go to America. I dont know if that fits into your question but some of the places and more I wouldnt mind living in. Been to them and would go back.

   

   Good Luck,

  Blackie.
