Hi Everyone, As mentioned at the end of the video, stay tuned for another video that will go over the technical aspects of the move: Including Taxes, Investing Strategy, Broker Changes, Visa Application etc. It should answer many of the questions you have. Thanks

Cost of living is a lot cheaper in panama dude . I’m not trying to convince you to do Anything, I’m just telling you my experience

Wow!! I have just spent the past week looking at Boquete KZbin videos for earlier retirement options in Panama and then I see this. Further inspiration to move to Panama. Good for you!! Right behind you Adriano!

[@AlpineDividends]

Awesome congrats man. I digital nomad'd for about 4 years, and can confirm that warm weather is where it's at! Really looking forward to your series about relocating, tax/residency considerations, etc, and how that impacts your investments. Enjoy!!! 🏝

[@jamesharding3528]

That’s a huge announcement and I will be very interested to see how that works out for you. We are at a different stage of life but we are now looking at spending at least 3 to 4 months down south because I couldn’t agree more the weather has a huge impact on your life and your outlook.

I miss you guys so I'm looking forward to you coming back in June. I am moving to house down near your new place on Saturday. Also, one thing I've realised now that we're back in rainy season, is rainy season = mango season. I've been foraging so many mangoes from around the neighbourhood. I even found papayas yesterday. Free food is good!

[@PassiveIncomeInvesting]

We miss you too and think about you daily, as we repeat an expression you used often on a daily basis 😉 looking forward to coming back and eating free mangos 🥭 see you soon Ann Marie 🤗

Hello Adrian and Erica, congratulations on making the move to your new chapter in your life. I wish you all the best. I would like to thank you for giving me the road map to Passiv income and have been subscribed and watching your videos around Aug 2019. I first gain interest when I heard Adrian say he worked for Air Canada as I still work for Jazz LoL. I never miss a video. Adrian is the best as he always reply’s back to my questions and makes everything so simple to understand. Thanks again and God bless. Rob

Hey Adrian just new it! You will move to Panama the moment u returned to Canada. Yes Canada is expensive to live and cold too burr. Thanks for the updates and nice to know there is a alternative to Mexico! When I said u deserve more we'll this is it! Location is unique close to other countries! Well Done enjoy

Mexico is also a good option 😉 Costa Rica , Belize … ☀️

I just watched this video once again, I originally thought arches when you released this last year. What are your thoughts about Coronado almost 1 year later ???

[@theflightsimulationexperie6894]

Congrats Adrian to you and your wife. Well deserved and I will say, I’m a little jealous. But I’m on my journey also. I got about 2-3 years till I hit 1.5million USD and will be living on my passive income just like you guys. It’s nice to be able to pick up and move when you don’t like it somewhere. Go where your treated best. I gotta hunker down for a few more years up here in South Carolina and then goodbye. Costs here keep going up all the time. We are getting sick of it. We probably could do it now but I want to have at least 1.5 million to feel secure. Keep up the great work.

[@randalxu4889]

Adrian, congratulations on the move! Nice weather, nice food, lower cost of living, I am so jealous. One question, any concerns about safety? I know that Coronado is a vacation town, so I assume that it is super safe? Also, could you also talk about the tax situation in your case if you move permanently there? Much appreciated!

Very safe ! It’s a private community. Details on your other questions in an upcoming video 😉

Nice move, can't wait to see the other videos! We tried looking into going to Florida permanantly but unfortunately, we can't just go there as stock market investors, we would need to invest a minimum of 1,000,000$ US and become real estate investors or have a normal job, Panama doesn't have this problem?

no but you do need 200K... next video will explain

Nope , it’s extremely affordable there .

To be honest I'm surprised 😮 that you would leave Canada for eternal sunshine! I thought yes over the winter and fall months who doesn't want to be where it's hot.

yeah Latin America in general is just a happier place despite all our problems we face back home (ie. poverty etc) but we're just happier people in general but I'm sure like certain areas are better than others, so do consider that before ever making a drastic big move to a brand new country just because of a trip! : )

[@tonyglen33]

Very cool. Just got my permanent residence via the FNV. Looking forward to seeing your investment moves if you become a Canadian "non resident". The withholding tax on US and Canadian dividends is an issue according to my research. I'm hoping you have a solution! Cheers.

Do you have to liquidate registered accounts in Canada (to cut ties) or can you keep all of these still? Also, if you have a corporation in Ontario, does this need to be dissolved? I understand that income earned outside of Canada is not taxed so I wonder if one can move permanently to a new country and keep ties to Canada without tax consequences...
