Buy, Sell, or Hold? - Top Vacation Destinations For 2014 [PART 1]
Life is about choices, with every choice we make we are really just trading on the alternative. Hence it would be rational to conclude every decision can be seen as a trade off. As most of us have a limited amount of time and resources available, I have compiled the Life Trader Top Vacation Destinations For 2014 list. Remember one trade is not always absolutely better than other. Timing is also an important factor.
Brazil (SELL) - Unless you're a huge soccer fan (in which case you probably already bought World Cup Tickets, because by now they are long gone) I'd recommend you to avoid Brazil in 2014. Media has given large coverage on how unprepared the country logistics are for the amount of tourism the WC2014 will generate next year.
Panama (BUY) - As of recent years Panama has been on every list of exciting destinations and best places to retire in the world. August 2014 will mark the 100th aniversary of the Panama Canal. The country is not as cheap as it used to be but still easily affordable. Don't get too caught up in the chaotic city and spend most of your time enjoying the rain forest and off the path beaches. Be prepared for extreme heat and humidity.
Myanmar (HOLD) - Myanmar touristic popularity has been increasing rapidly. The country however, has not adapted so fast to this dynamic. If you're the first mover type, go. Otherwise, wait.
Iceland (SELL) - NASA forecast an 11-year cycle of solar activity to peak this winter. For Space aficionados Iceland will be one of the best places to appreciate Northern Lights during the first few months of the year. Unless you're going for the Auroa Borealis spectacle trade out.
Ecuador (BUY) - Ecuador is overhauling their tourism oriented infrastructure by increasing the sector Government budget allocation by 300% in the next 4 years. A beautiful country as it is, relatively inexpensive and a top destination for Eco-Adventurers.
New Zealand (HOLD) - New Zealand remains a must visit destination in one's lifetime. You're sure to enjoy some of the most beautiful sights in the world. Expect to drop some big bucks, specially if you're planning on hitting the skiing slopes. In 2014 the country will complete it's 2,500 KM (1,500 miles) cycle trail. If you don't want to run into Lance Armstrong and friends, this trip can wait. New Zealand beauty is not going anywhere.
Costa Rica (HOLD) - If you haven't been to Central America or South America, Costa Rica is always a good place to start. Relatively inexpensive and safe for Americans. Will likely offer the least amount of culture shock of the destinations in the list. You will enjoy an array of activities for families with children in its friendly beaches and tourist accessible rain forests. If you're looking for more excitement, then skip this one.
