But there's a lot more to discover beyond that. Take the<br>Caribbean<br>, for example -- the vast, diverse region has plenty more to uncover aside from its pretty facade of sunny beaches, lush rainforests, and mountains. For instance, did you know that just two percent of the<br>Caribbean<br>islands are inhabited? Or that there are -- on average -- 340 days of sunshine per year? Whether you're considering a vacation to one of the islands or just want to impress friends and family at dinner parties, read on for some more fun, insider facts about the Caribbean.<br><br><br>1. Jamaica was the birthplace of James Bond.<br><br>Shutterstock/Ramunas Bruzas<br><br><br><br><br>After visiting Jamaica<br>for a naval conference during WWII, Ian Fleming decided then and there that island life was going to be for him. Three years later, when the war was over, he kept his word and bought a house in Jamaica<br>, where he decided to "swim in the sea and write books." From his home, which was called GoldenEye, Fleming penned the James Bond series that brought fame to both him and Jamaica. The first Bond film, "Dr. No," was also filmed on location there. Fleming's house is now a boutique hotel that goes by the name GoldenEye Hotel & Resort<br>, so you can return to the source of where it all started. <br><br>And while we're on the subject of Jamaica<br>, the island is also home to the greatest concentration of churches per square mile than anywhere in the world (it boasts 1,600 places of worship). <br><br>2. Saba has the shortest commercial aircraft runway on earth.<br>Flickr/killians_red<br><br><br><br><br> If you have a fear of flying, look away now because the runway on the Caribbean island of Saba is not a place you'll like the sound (or sight) of, given that it's one of the world's most extreme places to take off and land. Officially the world's shortest commercial runway, the strip is just 1,300 feet long. Flanked by water and rocky cliffs, a flight to Saba is the closest most will ever come to the feeling of landing on an aircraft carrier.  <br><br>3. Tobago inspired Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe.<br><br>Flickr/neiljs<br><br><br><br><br>If you're relaxing on a beach, watching the crystal clear waves roll in on the small island of Tobago<br>, and think that it might not be so bad to be stranded there forever, then know that you're in good company. Tobago, the sister island of Trinidad<br>, was the inspiration for Daniel Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe," the novel in which a shipwrecked sailor washes up on a tropical island where he encounters cannibals, mutineers, and captives. These days, you'll just find great snorkeling, amazing waterfalls, and remote beaches at the destination. <br><br>4. One of the world's hottest chili grows naturally in Trinidad.<br><br>AP Photo/Courtesy of Jim Duffy, New Mexico State University<br><br><br><br>If you've ever watched the television show "Man v. Food," then you know that chilis are a big deal. And when it comes to chilis, the biggest deal of all is the moruga scorpion chili, which is native to Trinidad<br>. Although the Carolina Reaper is currently the hottest chili pepper in the world, the moruga scorpion chili comes in at a close second (it also once held the title as the hottest in the world). And that's not surprising, given that it has a heat of more than two million Scoville heat units (SHUs). <br><br>5. Barbados was George Washington's only foreign trip.<br><br>Styve Reineck/Shutterstock<br><br><br><br><br>Americans might be the second most well-traveled people in the world<br>, but only one in five<br>travel abroad, which means that the majority of the country has something in common with George Washington. Not one to globe-trot, Barbados<br>was the only foreign destination that former president George Washington ever visited. Not a bad place to choose, if you ask us.   <br><br>6. St. Lucia has a drive-in volcano.<br><br>Flickr/Simon Phipps<br><br><br><br><br>While the U.S. has its famous drive-through trees, St. Lucia<br>has something even wilder for tourists to take their cars to and through: a volcano. Known locally as Sulphur Springs, the volcano last erupted in the late 18th century, which means the natural phenomenon is now considered dormant. However, while lava and molten rock eruptions might be a thing of the past, the bubbling, boiling mud and steaming sulphur of the volcano's hot springs keep things interesting for tourists.  <br><br>7. You can ride an ostrich in Curacao.<br><br>Mario Micklisch/Flickr<br><br><br><br><br>While some Caribbean fantasies might involve riding a majestic white horse along a deserted sandy beach, on the island country of Curacao<br>, you can swap the horse for an ostrich. The Curacao Ostrich Farm is a popular family attraction, where folks can pet the animals, test the strength of their eggs by standing on them, and climb on and ride an ostrich -- provided you weigh less than 80 kilograms.   <br><br>8. Aruba has submarine reef tours.<br><br>iStock<br><br><br><br>Why bother with PADI scuba courses when you can stay dry below the surface in a submarine? Atlantis Submarines offers tours that allow you to witness the reef life off Aruba<br>. Dropping to depths of 130 feet below the Caribbean Sea, the submarine tour is the ultimate tourist trip on the island, offering unique views of the ocean life that you might not see otherwise. <br><br>9. The Cayman Islands has more businesses than people.<br><br>Shutterstock/Yevgen Belich<br><br><br><br><br>In addition to representing a cosmopolitan mix of tropical paradise and developed luxury, the Cayman Islands<br>hold claim to being one of the few places in the world that hosts more businesses than people. And while Grand Cayman<br>is a thriving, wealthy imitation of South Florida, don't expect to find all those businesses among the island's malls and upmarket strips -- most of the businesses are there for the tax laws above all else.   <br><br>10. Planes pass just 100 feet above the beach on St. Maarten.<br><br>Flickr/Takashi Ota<br><br><br><br><br>The sight of a commercial jumbo jet swooping in and passing just 100 feet above the beach is one of the most iconic Caribbean images. And while you're not likely to spot a KLM Boeing 747<br>flying overhead these days, St. Maarten<br>is still home to one of the most epic sights in aviation. Maho Beach even attracts a mix of sunbathers and plane buffs to watch its amazing display.

bubble shooter pet - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pandakidgame.bubbleshooterpetraccoon. There has been a lot of talk lately about the "Real Estate Bubble", and a lot of folks are asking the question: "When it is going to burst"?

They are saying that the market just can't sustain this level of growth and appreciation much longer, and I hear them say that it is inevitable that it must come crashing down soon. People are worried. They don't think it can last; That whatever goes up, must come down.

These folks have been conditioned to believe what they believe most likely from the experience of the stock market bubble of 2000, and maybe the 1990's when the real estate market was hit hard in many large metropolitan areas across the country.

Its human nature to feel this way. We all know the saying (or the 80's tune for you big hair folks), "Once Bitten, Twice Shy". Or what about, "All good things must come to an end."? Its how we react to almost everything that affects our well being and general safety. Its a subconscious reaction at the gut level.

Just like in the stock market, there are bulls and bears. Bulls are typically more optimistic about the market and expect it go up, and bears are generally more pessimistic and expect the market to go down. They will always be there to provide free advice and "expert consulting". Remember though, who you decide to listen to will certainly have an effect on your decision making, and ultimately your success.

Well, I'm here to say that there is no real estate bubble! There never was a real estate bubble. Its a complete and utter fallacy.

"How can I say that?" you ask. I can say that because the real estate market is in reality, a Wave. Its a cycle, and we just happen to be riding the big swells, or the crest of this long, consistent, and fairly predictable pattern.

There is no doubt that real estate has been a rock solid investment for decades, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future and for many reasons that I would like to demonstrate here and now. Because you, as a real estate investor, must be able to move forward with confidence when deciding which projects and properties you want to buy and sell. That is the purpose of my website, website to provide you timely information, strategies and techniques to help you succeed.

But first, what is a bubble? In terms of economics and markets, the best definition is probably something along the lines of "an isolated or ephemeral situation or condition with little support or substantiation from external conditions".

The best example, and the one foremost in the minds of us all, is the stock market tech bubble of 1999 and 2000. We all rushed into the tech stocks and the stock market in general as we saw the .com millionaires being made.

Y2K was a big factor in the tech bubble. People were buying new systems at a unprecedented rate in order to prepare for doomsday. People were also buying consumable goods to stock up for the dreadful event that never came.

So what was holding up, or supporting the "irrational exuberance" as Alan Greenspan characterized it? Well, we learned soon afterward, not much. It was an isolated, temporary incident that had little support from the other conditions. It was indeed like a bubble that burst.

And it has had little support since then. Historically speaking, after the stock market crash of 1929 and 1987, it took decades for the market to recover, although it did eventually recover. Just look at the Dow average and the S including interest rates, availability of funding, climate, and governmental policies. These are all important and you must be cognizant of their impacts to your strategy.

However, it is true no that matter what the rates are or how nice the climate is, people will continue to migrate where there are abundant job markets and affordable housing. If you can stay just slightly ahead of that migration, you will profit immensely.

Real Estate Investing is Diverse
You can invest in so many different ways, from foreclosures and fix and flips, to buy and hold and everything in between. Right now the commercial space is relatively soft. It will recover no doubt, but people investing in single family homes are probably doing slightly better in returns. Vacancies are up and rents are down for commercial properties, but fortunately, the forecast is for this sector to improve over the next few years.

The key to successful real estate investing is to understand the forces, trends, and conditions that are driving the market. BE AWARE of your surroundings; Read articles and stay on top of industry news; Look in your own area at the job market and forecasts. Check my website website for all the news and information you need to help you succeed in your real estate investing career.

There is no real estate bubble, but there is a real estate wave. Like any dedicated surfer, when the surf's up, get in the water and catch a wave! But watch for danger, be flexible, and be smart. Invest wisely and you can prosper in any real estate market.
