The Bahamas certainly is at risk for hurricanes - similar to Florida - but does pretty well with them because of their location. I think Florida gets hit more then they do.
Tsunamis- Don't know really - just would hope we float:) LoL
Home prices are not bad - this is one we love for example - $450,000 - but not waterfront which is what we really want.
Tax info below - good incentives for US citizens.
I would open a small boutique there (which I think woudl do well) and trade full time - Again - this is the master plan:) LOL
TAX BREAKS/INCENTIVES
The Bahamas enjoys strong ties with its closest neighbour to the north - the United States. A stable political environment and investor friendly policies have made this island nation one of the most desirable countries in which to live and invest.
One of the Bahamas' key attractions is its tax friendly environment. The country does not levy taxes on capital gains, corporate earnings, personal income, sales, inheritance or dividends. This tax freedom is available to all resident corporations, partnerships, individuals and trusts. Corporations find the Bahamas an ideal place to establish a business. The government is committed to a "No Income Tax" policy.
