Should YOU Retire EARLY? | Retirement in the Philippines

[@anneonslow]

Hi Craig. Retiring early seems to me to be the best option. Life should not be all work and no play. I hope u have a very happy retirement in the Philippines and I'm looking forward to seeing your future videos from there.

well done Craig - retiring under 60 WOW - very few in Oil and Gas will ever experience life without work through choice - enjoy every day you deserve it.

You're 100% right, life's too short and if you're able to retire, enjoy the rest of your life.

I'm a 62 1/2 yr. Old American that can draw 70% of my S.S. if I wait until 64 it's 80% which is about $1700.00 plus I will draw another $200.00 from my 401k for a total of $1900.00 I'm hoping that would get me a half way decent life style in the Philippines

Our budget is around $1200 but we don't pay rent so your budget sounds good Jeff.
