It was a year ago that I was last in TV, a year ago since the US closed the borders to UK residents, a year ago that we completed the designs on our home... a year ago since GoldWingNuts started videoing the build of our lovely new home in Chitty Chatty a year that I have been religiously watching your videos to keep our dream alive so that one day when Covid is over, the UK\US borders re-open (we face a $7,500 fine just for turning up the airport without a valid reason to travel - holidays\visiting 2nd homes are 100% banned!) and we can finally see our lovely home on TV. Our restaurants have been closed since last November. I haven't been to a hairdresser in over a year. Until then keep these videos coming and keep our dream alive. THANK YOU.

Rich is VERY subjective. I would say a married couple, who has been working and saving their whole life, should have a 401k or equivalent, that has approximately $1.5 to $2 million in it when you retire, in order to do all the things that you want to do in retirement. If you are married or single, and have less than $1 million in your retirement when you retire, you can still live in The Villages, but you won't be going out to eat a lot, you won't be traveling, going on cruises, and you will have to live a more economical life. My best advice is to save, save, save while you are working. Nobody is responsible for your retirement, other than you.

I think that information about your post retirement lifestyle applies to just about wherever you live. The cost of living in suburban Chicago is definitely higher than where I grew up in eastern Iowa. My money would definitely go farther if I retired to eastern Iowa rather than staying in suburban Chicago where I have lived for over 40 years. Reasonable cost of living and warmer winter weather/liitle or no snow are important factors for me in a retirement location.

We're moving in about 3 weeks. We decided to move with as little as possible. We got a 30 yard dumpster which was $670. Then we ordered a 16 foot POD which is costing us about $3500. We are moving 1100 miles from New York. My parents just moved from NY to Myrtle Beach and took everything with them and got movers like you did, but their experience was horrible! The movers charged about $5000 BUT tried to extort more money from them AFTER the stuff was on the truck. Moving is no joke and we will NOT be doing this again :)

The better question would be how much of an income would you need to have a decent life at The Villages. It's not about how much capital you have. The more important factor is what is your cash flow. Someone with multi pensions, social security, etc., and not considered "rich" (money in the bank). Can have a very comfortable retirement and lifestyle in The Villages.

I'm learning more and more that there is a thing called Northern rich and Southern rich. Whereas our houses here in Georgia average $250,000, in some parts of the country the same house sells for $600,000. In this case, there will be a great difference in what some people can buy and do in TV compared to others who cannot do the same. I'm hoping that there will be people from both sides who get along great with each other. regardless of how much money they have.

Our long time vet died and his daughter took over the practice. I was so shocked when I went over the bill. The dog had vaccinations and his annual exam. The bill came to about $1,500. She did a test that she recommends for senior pets and oh my it was just ridiculous how much she upsold -- without my permission. Some of the charges included heartworm preventative medicine for one year and flea & tick meds for 6 months. But she added in $30 for a pro-biotic to sprinkle on his food and added some pills just in case he coughs. It has what is in people cough syrup. They sure are teaching vets how to bump up their incomes in vet schools these days!

We moved from Rhode Island right next door to Mass in May 2019. we sold or gave away most of our big items, used PODS to fill up one large pod. If it didn't fit it didn't come. They picked up the pod in our driveway and dropped it off in our new driveway. That plus our gas for the 2 cars ride down/hotel stays and food came out to 4285.96. All the quotes we got from movers were double that price. We were very happy with the experience. And I see many pods here from new residents.

He lived in Orange Blossom Gardens, aka the "antique section.". You do NOT have to be financially wealthy to live in that district! A fair number of those homes, nice though they may be, are manufactured. (I'm trying not to use the "T" word. Yep, on a good day you can pay $190k or maybe even more for a "T"!!😱)

@@lauralampe1664 couldn’t agree more. I started saving towards my pension in my first job. It helps that I’m an accountant so know a little so could self invest opposed to leaving it to the markets/traders to build my fund. Self administering has increased my annual pension pot by 642% yes you are reading that number correctly. As a result I can afford to retire at 55 with an annual income 750% greater than then fund the markets were projecting I’d earn if I retired at 67!!!! A simple tip - start small and put a little of every salary rise into your pension... it soon mounts up... Now I’ll flip side this as well and point out a lucky few in the UK with government backed indexed linked final salary pensions (teachers/police/fire/medical staff/civil servants) These people contribute a small sum into their schemes and after 30 years walk away with a pension up to 2/3 FINAL salary (so you work all the OT and take every promotion)- very very nice for the few who get that in the UK.

I may be the only 60 year old woman who is not coloring her hair. Up here in suburban Chicago I pay $55 for a haircut ....about every 8 weeks. I started going to this salon last year because they only take one client at a time, and there is no one allowed in the waiting area. Once I am vaccinated I will probably switch back to Supercuts. I actually got my hair cut once in The Villages during a visit. I think the place was on 441 near Brooklyn Water Bagels. The stylist was very nice, and the hair cut turned out fine. It might have been a Fantastic Sam's. I am pretty low maintenance when it comes to my hair. Linda and Jerry, both of your cuts look great on you. And you can spend $$$ on a pet's medical expenses. You are lucky that Gizmo is healthy.

First time seeing you, what a nice niche you have. I'm in the Miami area! The camera is distracting - need to fix it. You have either a Panasonic or a low price Canon. If a Panasonic, change the focus setting in the menus to "locked on". If something like the Canon M50, go to manual focus and pre-focus. If you want a little hands on help, dig into my channel and I have my email in the description on most videos, I would be glad to spend a couple of minutes to help that focus issue go away. Nice video all the way around, big thumbs up 👍👍

Hairdressers are expensive, especially if you go blonde. Prior to virus, I had a good one @ the mall = Regis salons, but now all gone. We use to trim our 2 Boston Terrier nails. They were not impressed. As a child in Indiana my husband’s mother got to name the street that they built their house on = Tuckaho Lane. We set our new ac on 79. After 21 years here & 20 in AZ acclimated. We kept flood insurance, as on an irrigation pond. Jeanne

Great video Thanks for all the info. We had an estate sale and downsized to 2 pieces of furniture and a LOT of boxes, only to find out that due to COVID furniture is hard to come by and may take awhile to get.😳We have our design meeting next Monday. Can’t wait to start living the Lifestyle!

120-140 every 6 weeks for my hair here and $90 mani/peti. High Maintenance girl here. Lol! 80-100 to get my cat groomed and 50 for my tiny dog grooming. Probably comparable there. High Maintenance pets too. Ha! You two are rich because you have each other and Gizmo. Rich is not about money. 💖

Enjoyed the video. Here near Pensacola, the vets do charge when you bring the dog inside for anything. It's an office visit fee right off the top. I noticed that the prices at the vet started getting noticeably higher a couple of years ago.

From a Linda born in 48, I went to school with so many Linda’s! I agree with a Linda Lane or Drive! I say yay! I too often wondered about some odd Village names. I had a friend back home in a beautiful over 55 community , who wanted a lot but, due to it’s name she chose another. It was Dog Leg Drive! Can’t say I blame her. My community in coastal NC has all nautical names. Another interesting segment, thanks again!

John...no you don’t need to be rich. No more expensive then any other city, all depends how much you eat out or drink. And how much home you want.

Spot on. Are you going to eat out 3 or 4 times a week, or once or twice a month? Are you going to live in an 1,100 or smaller square foot patio villa or a 2,300 or larger square foot premier home? Will you be traveling 3 or 4 times a year or staying close to home most of the time?

I always hire movers and all but once, I did the packing. If the movers pack, they pack everything including trash. I haven’t moved for several years, but it’s usually based on weight and distance. It’s not cheap. $5000 was an excellent price. I don’t color my hair, but I just started getting gray about 10 or 11 years ago. It’s turned quickly.

Hi Jerry and Linda $5.000 wasn’t bad to move from Indians to Florida. I paid $2,000 to move from central NJ to the Jersey shore. However, they did a lot of the packing.
