Join us as we talk about our Costa Rica budget - how we budget and spend money in Costa Rica. This month, we not only came in under budget, we crushed it! Find out how much and how by listening to the show!

We talk about our first 6 months in Costa Rica and discuss what's coming up in the next 6 months. We also say we're sorry and lots of other stuff!

Nadine Hays Pisani is the author of the Happier Than A Billionaire series. The third book Happier Than A Billionaire: The Escape Manual has just been released and is the "how to" on moving to Costa Rica. Nadine is originally from Linden, New Jersey, a town known for it's Exxon refinery. Despite the high levels of benzene fumes and occasional toxic spills, Nadine had a wonderful childhood and has no apparent side effects from the pollution. She eventually became a chiropractor (as did her husband), took out a hundred thousand dollars in student loans, only to later realize that she would much rather swing in a hammock than spend twelve hours a day in an office. She is currently working on her reality show, Building Up an Appetite. You can find it on her Youtube channel: youtube.com/happierwithless
