Puerto Vallarta's Collegio Mexico-Americano

Country forums / Mexico / Mexico

Well here's an upbeat story for you. It seems that retirement just wasn't all it was
cracked up to be for David Bender, despite an upscale oceanfront home north of
Puerto Vallarta and a life of leisure filled with endless rounds of golf. There was
something missing; he needed a challenge. So, looking around at the huge disparity
between rich and poor, the dismal state of education available to the children of
low-income families and the corruption that continues to stifle the entrepreneurial

I sincerely hope Mr. Bender's early success will continue long into the future.

Best regards,
Mike OToole.
