Why not expand in the Bahamas? Here are a few reasons.
- It is very religious and having a full blown porn company office here would put us at a huge risk. Both immigration/legally and physically. The churches here would be on our ass so bad it wouldn't even be funny.
- To run a company a bahamian must be majority owner. So if i wanted to open up an office here i'd have to go out and give 51% of my company to a bahamian.
- 51%+ of the staff would have to be bahamian. If you've ever been here you'd understand why that is not even an option. Honestly, I'd couldn't do it. Bahamians have a terrible work ethic and would make the absolute worst employees.
- cost of living is insane so having Ex pats move here to work for us would be extreme costly.

Ah man, you should have considered moving to the west coast of puerto rico...Plenty of Americans in the Rincon area, so you don't even have to learn spanish if you don't want to...I live on the east coast of PR but I would love to live in Rincon as I have spent many months there..The surfing waves in high season rival that of the North Shore of Hawaii and there are PLENTY of surfers and surfer babes out there...
People here don't get in your business at all...There's too many people here for you to even stick out like that...Nobody would even know what you did at all unless you told them..There is no Federal income tax, and anywhere outside of San Juan and Ponce is safe quiet living.
It's a hub so it's cheap to fly to and from here, as long as you are flying to the US/Canada..Inter-Island flights are insanely expensive...the cost of living is low and so is the crime...The public schools are decent and the private schools are good and cheap...The roads and infrastructure is excellent and you don't have to worry about crazy niggas driving on windy roads like you had to deal with in the Bahamas.
The weather is in the 80's year round and is located in the tradewinds, so it gets a nice steady breeze...Only bad part is the summer where it feels like a sauna down here and that's why I'm spending this coming summer back in Ohio..
