    Second home in Panama

    Hi,

    My name is Jack and my wife, Sue, & I bought a condo in Coronado last February. Based solely on on-line research, we went there for 5 days and bought a 2 bedroom condo. We think it's a great place, hopefully a great investment and certainly a really good time when we're there.

    Our youngest is in high school so we can really only go to Panama in the summer, in Boston that is. In 3 years when he goes to college, we'll spend our winters there.

    When there in July of '11 we met a guy who told us about Credit Union CD's that paid very high rates. is any one familiar with them? And are they safe?

    Thanks,
    Jack

    High risk is directly correlated with high interest.

    If you or your wife are in the medical or teaching profession you might want to try CSMR or COOPEDUC.

    Thanks Becky. What's your story? Do you live in Panama or do you visit?
