Ever think about retiring to another country?

[aarondhgraham]

I'm too danged old to learn another language.

I spent 8 years traveling to many foreign countries in the USAF,,,
Yes, a lot of them had a much cheaper cost of living,,,
But the quality of living matched that scale as well.

I know three people (Two retired professors and one State retiree),,,
They all went to Belize in Central America for the low cost,,,
They all came back.

Abandoning a culture isn't an easy thing to do.

The biggest impediment to retiring in another country is the IRS. They still want their full cut regardless of where you live. I'm not down with renouncing my US citizenship just to escape their grubby clutches. If I did retire somewhere else, the cost savings would have to offset the IRS and cost of living.

I was born in Oklahoma in 1965. I'm still here and I'm already living in another country.

Our god daughter retired at 39. She always loved to travel. She has been in Portugal for about 3 years now and loves it. Travels a lot over there also.

Went to Portugal last year and could see myself there for a couple of years. The Douro valley is amazing!

Dominion Republic for half what it cost here is attractive

As soon as I find a country where I can take all my guns and ammo, and regularly purchase guns and ammo, I might consider it. I've lived in lots of nice places around the world. But all things considered, I'm perfectly happy to live out my retirement here over anywhere else.

I mean I’d consider Texas. It’s like a whole other country, isn’t it?

With the way things are going it may be in the near future!
