- Deforestation; when a family affair becomes a national pastime. 

- When bored Expats get the “Green Acres” syndrome. Buying land in the boonies and things to look out for.  

- The logic of thieves, and how Latins (including your own employees) justify stealing from you.

- How the hardwood tree stealing business works... And since just one tree is worth up to $15k, business is excellent (but the trees sure ain't what they used to be). 

- Squatters and squatter’s rights, land invasions, and trespassing (on your land).  

- Only in Latin America! Another twisted Costa Rican land scam revealed.
