[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 821097, member: 24302"] But it's just your opinion. There are expat forums all over the Internet. People living in these places discussing the good, the bad, the ugly. There are plenty of countries that I'd never consider for various reasons, but between Latin America and Southeast Asia there are more than a dozen that would work well for me. And I don't really get hung up on countries but look for livable cities. There are huge expat communities in Mexico, Costa Rica, and Panama with Ecuador getting popular. Unfortunately popular expat places tend to be more expensive, but even there a retiree can save 20-30% over a comparable lifestyle in the States. If you refuse to believe it more power to you, but I feel sorry for anyone who gets locked into the belief that the U.S. is the only place worth living in with the possible exception of Europe, Canada, and a few others. Did you know that the world's largest Social Security office outside the U.S. is attached to the American embassy in Manila, The Philippines? Alot of Americans living there with Filipina wives and children. There are Yahoo Groups about living in the Philippines with over 20,000 members. You may have plenty going your way and would never consider these options, but for someone like me who's getting old and won't have much then living overseas is absolutely the best option out there unless I want to work the rest of my life. So good luck with it all, I'll take my chances in Peru. [/QUOTE]
