Dear friend
Five years ago we made the move to Spain which many people only ever
dream of doing. SOME OF OUR FRIENDS THOUGHT WE WERE BRAVE WHILST
OTHERS THOUGHT WE WERE STUPID. I should have sided with the ones that
thought we were stupid after all the heartache we went through in the
first couple of years.
That's why we've been working flat out to put these videos together
so that you can benefit from all the mistakes we've made over the
year.
Check out this preview of Spain Uncut:
HOW CAN SPAIN UNCUT IMPROVE YOUR SPAIN EXPERIENCE?
It has taken us many months to squeeze five years of our ups and
downs in Spain into these videos. IT HAS BEEN AN EXHAUSTING PROCESS.
Completing this has become an obsession for me in the last five
months.
I was up until 1:00am, 2:00am and sometimes 3:00am pretty much every
day making sure we covered EVERYTHING we felt mattered in Spain Uncut.
We have poured our hearts and souls into this and we didn't want to
leave anything out. THIS IS A COMPLETE AND UNIQUE INSIGHT INTO MOVING
TO AND SETTING UP A GOOD LIFE IN SPAIN FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
LET ME SHOW YOU EVERYTHING THAT'S IN THE VIDEOS:
Video 1: Five Years In Spain
Here we start off by talking about the reasons behind the making of
Spain Uncut and what you can expect to gain from our experience.
VIDEO 2: WHY MOVE TO SPAIN
And don't say weather! Here we take a look at the reasons why we
moved to Spain, the reasons others have moved to Spain too and the
reasons you may have for wanting to live here. This covers many
subjects such as cost of living, simple pleasures, lifestyle etc. A
good one to question and understand your own desires.
VIDEO 3: CHOOSING THE LOCATION
When we decided to make the move this was a real problem for us.
It's one thing to holiday here and a totally different matter living
here. We discuss what you need to consider when choosing where to live
in Spain. There's more to it than just the proximity to the beach!
VIDEO 4: MAKING THE MOVE
I planned everthing. I really didn't believe I could have planned
any more. I had spreadsheets and lists coming out of my ears. Yet in
the end there was little point. We got so much of this wrong that I
uninstalled Excel from my laptop! If nothing else this video will
hopefully really enable you to properly plan your move to Spain by
considering the points raised in this video.
VIDEO 5: ARRIVING IN SPAIN
We had a nightmare when we first arrived. Here we cover our own
experiences and offer guidance to help you make your arrival in Spain
smoother and cheaper by not making some of these common mistakes.
VIDEO 6: THE DREADED PAPERWORK
I really hate Spain for this! Why do they just seem to make
everything so complicated and stressful? As a "newbie" in Spain you
will have to deal with the dreaded paperwork. NIE number,
empadronamiento, residencia...it's oh so boring but oh so important.
Here we explain exactly what it is you need to do by explaining the
processes involved. You'll thank us for this!
Video 7: Education color: orangered;">Video 8: Healthcare
After money healtcare is probably the next biggest reason why people
end up leaving Spain in the end. You never plan to get ill but when
you do it can be tough being in a foreign environment, in a foreign
language, not understanding the system. Here we discuss they way the
health system works in Spain and also the option of private
healthcare.
VIDEO 9: BANKS COLOR: ORANGERED;\">VIDEO 10: BUYING A PROPERTY
We have made every blunder we always warn others not to do! It's so
easy to get your fingers burnt buying in Spain...unless you know what
to do. In this video we tell you about the mistakes we made and then
grab some sound advice from our "honest estate agent" Andrew. Making a
mistake when buying a property could cost you thousands.
VIDEO 11: GETTING A MORTGAGE
I hold my hand up and say that I know absolutely nothing about
mortgages. That's why for this video we sought the help of a
professional mortgage broker in Spain to give us the low down on
getting a mortgage here. And yes, it IS that difficult to get a
mortgage at the moment. Hopefully with this advice you'll have a
clearer picture of your options and what you can expect.
VIDEO 12: GETTING A JOB
Unless you're retiring to Spain you'll need to earn a living here.
Getting a job is very tough. And salaries may not be what you expect.
If you do need to work in Spain this will give you a good insight into
what to expect and the sorts of opportunities available to you.
Video 13: Working For Yourself
Can't get a job? Maybe you need to consider setting yourself up in
business here. Forget everything you know...the Spanish system will
grind you down by itself. This is THE video I wish I'd watched before
setting up Eye on Spain here. Great advice on the types of businesses
in Spain, employing people, the costs involved, taxes and other useful
"businessey stuff". Don't start a business in Spain without watching
this first.
VIDEO 14: LEARNING THE LINGO
For the past five years Susan has been totally obsessed with
mastering Spanish and she has reached an incredibly high level in that
time. Many expats never bother, others are too scared to make fools of
themselves. But you shouldn't be afraid. In this video we give some
sound advice on learning Spanish and Susan also discusses why
sometimes it may be best NOT to learn it at all!
VIDEO 15: GETTING TO KNOW THE SPANISH
If you want to live in Spain you really have to understand the way
that the Spaniards are. This is a great isight with a big input from
David, who is Spanish. He tells us what the Spanish are really like!
Video 16: Making Friends
As you exit the airport terminal you won't find a load of people
wanting to be your friends! Being away from people you know, such as
family and friends back home, has lead to many expats feeling
incredibly lonely and depressed. Making friends in Spain can be
easy...it's just knowing who to befriend.
VIDEO 17: THE COST OF LIVING
This is a firm favourite of mine. Stop the press! Spain is no longer
cheap, especially if you live along any of the main Costas. Prices
have been going up and most of our Spanish friends are complaining
about the cost of living here, and many blame the expats.
Underestimate the cost of living in Spain at your own peril.
VIDEO 18: COMMUNITY LIVING
Apart from old villages and indepent villas, most properties in
Spain belong to part of a community, a cost which ever owner has to
pay. Here we take a look at what is a community in Spain, how much it
costs, what you can do you in your community and much more. Here you
will most likely be a part of a community....you are not alone!
Video 19: Levels Of Integration
Want to be near other expats? That's ok. Want to live in a quiet
inland village? Everyone's expectations and desires are completely
different. At the end of the day you do whatever makes you happy. In
this video we look as the different ways that expats integrate into
life in their part of Spain.
VIDEO 20: CUSTOMER SERVICE
Not trying to offend any of our Spanish friends but customer service
isn't one of Spain's strong points (although I can only comment for
Andalucia region on this). In this video we restrain Susan and look at
how you are protected when you're spending your money here. And don't
forget, it's ok to be agressive.
VIDEO 21: COPING WITH STRESS AND HOMESICKNES
Moving is stressful. Moving abroad even more so. Setting up a
business is more stress. Finding a job also very stressful. Feeling
homesick is normal. No matter what anyone says, EVERYONE feels a
degree of homesicknes, especially when things go wrong. And you know
what? It's ok to feel it. In this video we discuss a subject which
many expats often pretend doesn't affect them.
VIDEO 22: ENDURANCE AND RETURNING \"HOME\"
Anyone who says they are settled after just one month in Spain is
lieing. It takes much more time than that and so many people end up
returning back home, usually within 6 months. We have seen so many
people come and go over the past few years that it's often difficult
to keep friends for very long. Here we discuss the possibility of it
not working out for you in SPAIN and how to cope with the potential
feeling of failure.
VIDEO 23: WHAT WE WOULD HAVE DONE DIFFERENTLY
Surely the most important video of them all. These aren't just our
opinions. We ask other people to tell us what they would have done
differently if they were to do it again. A great summary of common
mistakes which you can avoid by knowing them upfront.
Yes, a total of 23 videos packed with genuinely great information
and advice.
This is solid powerful stuff. And it might be difficult to believe
but we have been providing this stuff every day for a long time...
THE WORLD HAS WATCHED OUR INFORMATION AND ADVICE SINCE 2004
WE'VE BEEN GIVING AWAY FREE INFORMATION AND ADVICE FOR YEARS to
people looking to move to Spain or buy a property here. And we think
we've done a pretty good job with this so far...and that's just with
the free stuff!
But instead of us telling you how great we are, we thought we would
let some of our subscribers tell you. These are just a few of the
comments taken from the Spain Uncut blog TODAY:
"I have a few loose ends to tie up before i move. Hope to get my
partner a nursing job in gibraltar. Ill gladly pay for a copy of spain
uncut as ive enjoyed the siesta show so much for free."

website for people wanting information about moving to Spain "
_- Fred Pegman_
"We moved to Spain last August, and EOS was an enormous help to us
all on our new Urbanisacion . We're still experiencing a few teething
problems, so I imagine your video could be most helpful if it's as
comprehensive as EOS and the Siesta Show."
_- Phil Hacking_
"I hope to move to Murcia next spring and like many other people
have bought a villa and during the process had many stressful moments.
The information on your site has helped me get through them I am sure
this will be a great bonus."

afraid to ask! Good luck with the launch - you have chosen a good day
to launch - my birthday - so it's bound to be a success."
_- Luciana_
"I am a great fan of your site and believe you work very hard to
keep ahead of the game which in the present world circumstances aint
easy knowing whats what! I am sure your video will make the move to
spain for Newbies a whole lot easier and for some of the already there
expats and few tips they never knew about I am really looking forward
to seeing it."
_- Marilyn Sinclair_
"You helped us once Justin I'm sure that this video will help us
again. I have been learning Spanish for 3 years and want so much to
acheive my dream of living in Spain."
_- Tracy Hutchinson_

seeing the video and hope that my readers will also find it useful!"
_- Sue Walker_
"Am sure it will soon become must have viewing! "
Chris Marshall
This is just a sampling of the comments that we have received.
There are a lot more...but they all really say the same thing - WE ARE
REALLY GOOD AT GIVING OUT INFORMATION AND ADVICE THAT ACTUALLY HELPS
PEOPLE. We know Spain, the difficulties of moving here and living
here, the joys it can bring, we live it every day and so can you.
Now at this point you are probably wondering what a unique video
series lie this will cost.
But I think the question you should be asking yourself is...
WHAT WILL IT COST YOU TO NOT OWN \"SPAIN UNCUT\"?
You know this...when moving abroad or buying a property abroad
knowledge and skills are power.
IGNORANCE COSTS YOU MONEY. It nearly cost me my family I got it so
wrong. We didn't know what we were doing and as a result the money
that we had which was supposed to last us for 12 months, we ended up
exhausting this within just 3 months. Imagine that, after three months
in a foreign country with no money and a family to feed.
_I have a feeling that if you are still reading this letter at this
point, you have got to be serious about fulfilling an ambition of a
new life in Spain._
What we have put together in Spain Uncut is the result of our five
years to learning, very fast learning. Advice and information which we
could so desperately have needed when we moved.
If all that knowledge can help you avoid JUST ONE MISTAKE when
starting your new life in Spain...it will pay for itself many times
over.
OK, let's wrap this up...
FACT: MOST PEOPLE SPEND WAY MORE THAN THEY PLANNED WHEN MOVING TO
SPAIN
Yes, it wasn't just us. For most of our friends their move to Spain
ended up COSTING THEM CONSIDERABLY MORE THAT THEY EXPECTED. It's just
they way it is. You think you've thought of everything until it's too
late. You WILL be caught out.
That's why Spain Uncut is such a fair investment at just €47.
The information and peace-of-mind guidance contained within it is
really priceless, and there's NO OTHER PRODUCT LIKE THIS ANYWHERE. Can
you afford to lose money, sacrifice your health or your family when
moving to Spain? No and neither could we but it nearly cost us dearly.
We are so proud of the content that we have put together for Spain
Uncut that it makes me almost embarrassed to tell you about the...

Everyone always says that you can never do enough research before
moving abroad, setting up a business abroad or buying a property
abroad. THEY DON'T SAY THAT FOR NOTHING. It is tough, it is
complicated, it is stressful and it can end up costing you a lot more
money then you planned.
So if you're looking for real world guidance and proper advice,
that's what we're offering you in "Spain Uncut".
