Big ups to everyone working effortlessly trying to earn a living while building wealth. I’m 40 and my husband 44 we are both retired with over $1 million in net worth and no debts. Currently living smart and frugal with our money. Saving and investing lifestyle in the made it possible for us this early even till now we earn monthly through passive income. We are currently in Greece enjoying our retirement

[@skoopqueen.]

@Vic Vic Alright so generally, investing requires higher knowledge. For this reason, It's important to have a solid support structure (financial consultant) to guide you through especially in asset picking. I operate with (REGINA LOUISE COLLARO) a financial advisor who partners with a licensed wealth management firm. For the record, the experience has been the best for my finance. She is quite popular for her services so you might have heard of her. She made me financially stable investing through her help, now I earn on a monthly basis through her passive income strategy...So I’ll advise you do get a good financiaI advisor for yourself.

I used to live in Costa Rica and I am now a permanent resident of Panama. Panama has much less crime and is very friendly to retirees of all income levels. I highly recommend that anyone interested in Latin America check Panama out.

Yeah, I was looking at buying property in Guanacaste and saw someone fire a gun at someone else on the street, in broad daylight in Tamarindo. Also heard some bad stories of people who bought property in the Arenal area and dealt with constant break ins. If you want to live in Costa Rica, which is a beautiful country and great spot to surf, make sure it's a gated community and it's mostly expats living there. I'd take Costa Rica off the list if you have any concerns of safety. There is a reason why it's cheap to buy property down there.

Andrew, I know you likely do not want to touch the subject with a 10ft pole but most people with any amount of common sense do not want to go anywhere where they will impose a vaccine passport A vaccine passport means tital restriction of freedom. For now, the number of (warm, rax-friendly) countries is getting fewer and fewer. I'm currently working on persuading my spouse to go to Nicaragua. Nica never locked down and they had the absolute lowest mortality rate. Ben Swann and Jeff Berwick (The Dollar Vigilante) both did shows on this very thing. Nobody with half a working neurone wants to be forced, coerced into having experimental substances injected into their bodies - or anything at all if they don't want this.

There are a lot of strikes and road blockades. About every 2-3 years the country will be paralyzed by strikes for weeks. Volcanic eruptions occur about every 5 years that can disrupt everything for months. The military has a lot of power. Ran the main airline, there have been coups. I’m not at all getting into the day to day challenges just big picture you will not be happy when this happens moments.

Why wait to move to these places when you retire? Go there now if you can and you are still younger.

[@randyleebear]

Love the Mauritius but health care is not up to same standards as other places. It is certainly off the beaten path. Mexico is very high on my list. Not expensive to live. Taxes are high but for US citizens the tax treaty is more important. Healthcare is very good in the private healthcare system. Portugal is my favorite Not expensive, great healthcare, good tax policy for pensioners and a path to EU citizenship.

Panama is definitely a good option a lot of French people are going there

So funny that, South and Central America are flooding the U.S (especially in horrible Miami where I live) and Americans are trying to go to those countries 🤣 guess we are swapping now.

[@SenorJuan2023]

The ones fleeing are not from the same countries Americans are flocking too.

@@SenorJuan2023 No, no one lives isolated and everyone lives in society, so politics is always part of life. Supporting socialist governments has proven nefarious of civilization with 200 million dead to prove it.

If you don't mind the crime... no thanks... I've got my eye on Thailand... for many reasons.... excellent medical... great food... beautiful country... very inexpensive... no crime... great car culture... and you'll never be lonely.... :)

I was living half the year in Chiang Mai, Thailand until February 2020. I highly recommend it. Will return when the Kingdom fully opens.

[@R0yL33]

Agree but private medical expensive. Government hospitals cheap and good care. Lots of air pollution, but Phuket and other southern provinces ok.

Andrew is Belize no longer considered a good safe place for retirees

[@mattball7074]

Belize seems sketchy man. Its a shame

[@JTland-sea-air]

When you refer to BZ, please be specific. There is mainland BZ and what most expats call BZ is Ambergris Caye and the town of San Pedro. Two different worlds. Do a little research. Only one city on the mainland where crime is an issue, Belize City. Everywhere else is standard "be smart". Hope that helps.
