There are few guaranteed public benefits on the island for non-Caymanians (in terms of health, unemployment coverage, etc.) other than trash collection, but even that carries a small fee each year. However, there are many benefits which the public reaps by way of community donations and involvement, thanks to philanthropists, wealthy members of the society and simply generous people. Our weekly community calendar of events published in the newspaper fills two pages. Our beaches are well kept and there are a number of children's parks as well. There four versions of permanent residency for persons of independent means. Two of them involve the grant of PR based on a direct investment/business venture. Those allow the applicant to work in the business upon which their grant was based. However, you are interested in the two PR options which are based on investment of money and/or real estate. One of those options gives no right to work at all. The other gives the applicant alone the right to work, but not the spouse. However, your spouse could be omitted from the PR grant and could, instead, apply for a work permit. That way, you could both be working (if you chose the type of PR which allowed you to apply for a variation to include working).
