@samsongomah13182 ай бұрын
Sadly, in Mexico, most people earn so little money that they live paycheque to paycheque and do not save anything. Debt levels are much lower than in the USA or Canada because most Mexicans earn too little to qualify for credit cards and earn too little to get bank loans. The ones who borrow from 'other sources' often end up lifeless on the side of a road.

Now sharing a small rental central city flat (unit) I'm caring in-home for my Mum, 98 and very frail. But every day we have together is a blessing. I'm just trying to have the best life I can at the moment while I'm living in a city*, while helping mum have the best life she can have also. (*Did some classes at University and Polytechnic, helping on some committees of things etc) Every evening we sit together watching the big TV in the loungeroom with subtitles on (her hearing's down a bit). Fortunately I live in a nation with Free Universal Healthcare and a welfare system that pays me a small allowance to stay home and care for mum. Who knows what the future holds. Whether I may in future return to the semi-arid almost outback of Australia, or some cold rainy part of Southern N.Z. ? Relish and enjoy the time you have with your elderly relatives, whanau and friends.

We moved to Mexico specifically for my mother with Alzheimers. The nursing home was run by a Canadian man whose wife had dementia and passed away, he turned his large hacienda into a nursing home specializing in Alzheimer’s care. The nursing staff was amazing, the care was 2 caregivers to one patient as opposed to usually one nurse to six or more patients . My grandmother went thru three Alzheimer’s units in the USA and all of them were horrible, we live in a higher income community so there was no excuse for poor care. In fact one very high cost unit just sprayed patients down with Lysol if they soiled themselves. Our doctor who was well traveled wholeheartedly supported our decision to move my mother to Mexico for care. She was happy until the day she passed from a stroke. She never knew where she was from day to day only cared that she had home cooked food and a very clean environment with wonderful caring trained caregivers and always one nurse on duty at all times. The hospital was literally right next door in case of emergencies. It was affordable and the best part was she had excellent care. How was I so sure. Because of a medication issue I needed to spend a week somewhere quite and with care until my medication took affect. I went to my mother’s nursing home. The care was excellent and the patients formed bonds that were like an extended family. They looked out for one another as best as they could considering their various illnesses. They had games that encouraged exercise at a minimal level, music, a beautiful atrium filled with gorgeous tropical plants, a swimming pool with special equipment for those who could use it, three home cooked meals per day and a nurse who administered medication as needed. Cameras were located in the rooms yet made sure that no one’s privacy was ever violated. My only complaint was that there was a bar across the street that played loud music but guess what when I asked the other patients if the music bothered them, they asked what music. You see Alzheimer’s patients would not remember anything that happened during the night and often nothing that happened an hour before. It did upset me since I did not have a memory issue watching the decline of such wonderful people, it broke my heart but the times they did remember they were happy and well fed and clean. The rooms were perfect for the needs of the patients. Its a shame they did not consider placing their parent into one of these several homes because their lives and hers would have been beautiful. I don’t know if their plans can change but if it was me I would look into nursing care in Ajijic Mexico. God forbid we should need nursing care but if we did we wouldn’t hesitate to go in a skinny minute. I’m lucky I got to see if we made a good decision for my mother, my heart is now at peace that I did the very best for her.

Just tell them you're in "New Mexico". LOL My Mom and Dad mostly had physical decline, although my Mother showed signs of mental decline near the end. We had a full time in-house caregiver for both of them, in California and it was extremely expensive. I think this is one reason why more Americans are retiring abroad. In the United States to be in the top 1% of income earners, you need a yearly income of $550k - $600k per year. The world as a whole, that number is only $32,000 a year, which means in some nice places, you can live like a wealthy person on very little income.

"She wasn't having any of that". When an adult gets dementia they inherit the accountability and decision making ability of a child. I am an RN. I see families torn apart by unrealistic efforts on behalf of demented parents. The ones that do best have a family leader willing to make hard decisions. I am afraid I would have taken my parent "for a vacation" and then kept her at the new location. The last thing I would do is come out of retirement and incur debt to please someone who is increasingly child-like. Sorry but I think most people would regret your decision.

On the other hand, it's clear to me why this guy has been successful in many aspects if his life, including where it matters most. His family. He made the sacrifice to relocate in the first place so that his wife would have healthcare and they could enjoy their lives together. He then made another sacrifice in returning to the US. Again, this was to support his family and maybe this is what his wife really wanted. Not only that, he discovered a new talent that enables him to quit his day job and work remote anywhere with connectivity. He will have success wherever (family) life leads him. Every family would be fortunate to have a leader like this guy. Much respect.

It’s the right choice for us. Now we have a granddaughter too and the pull towards family only gets stronger and stronger. It’s ok. We travel and see the world when we can and get our “fix” that way while still being able to be here for our kids. Yes. Life happens.

Glad to hear things are working out for you two. I went through a similar situation, except mine is going downhill very fast. A few years ago I left my job (architect) in Toronto, Ontario. Had a very serious case of burnouts, and stress. My health was declining. Got married, took my wife places, including Croatia where I was born to show her were I came from as a kid. She loved the place then, and convinced me to move there. Sold our house, got rid of a lot of stuff, packed a container with stuff we wanted to keep, including a car, and off we went to Croatia. The idea was to buy a piece of land there, build a house, and live happily ever after. We bought a gorgeous lot, hired a local architect, got our doctors first week that we were there. Croatia being part of the EU, has excellent health care right across the continent, and it was cheap-cheap. Six months into our stay there, wife begins to hate the place. Cries in the car as we are driving around - me showing her the country which is gorgeous. Decide to drop everything, and move back to Canada, Montreal this time where wife is from. We are into our sixth year living here. She speaks a little bit of French, I don't speak any. She got her family doctor right away, same docotr that she had when she lived here. I waited two and a half years for one. We live in an apartment now. Wife now has serious health issues - mental health issues which are very dificult to deal with for both of us. Cost of living up here is staggaring - specially when you consider the value of the Canadian dollar. Used to be that our dollar was on par, and sometimes even better than the US dollar. Now, it's about $0.72 American. Everything we buy comes from either China or USA, so we have to pay in US dollar values. Essentially, we are running out of money, and my marriage is on the skids due to her mental health. Don't know what to do...life sucks sometimes.

@@apscoradialesI applaud you for sticking by your spouse who has mental health issues. My late husband was 15 yrs. older than I and he worked an extra seven years just to make sure that I had health insurance in the U.S. It’s shocking to read how EXPENSIVE rent is both here and in Canada when back in 1966 I paid $45 for a 3-room apartment. My career was in banking and I paid $4 a month for health insurance deducted from my paycheck and my employer paid the rest of the costs. Now a good portion of my social security goes to pay for Medicare and half my late husband’s pension annuity (earned during those 7 yrs.) pays for my health insurance. I fractured my hip and had a replacement 8 months ago and all that insurance coverage I pay (and he provided) covered 100% of my medical costs. I hope your wife finds the right doctor to prescribe medication to treat her depression. It took six years and a loving husband before I was diagnosed correctly in 2006. She is very lucky to have you but make sure you are taking care of your needs first so that you don’t get burned out from the stress.

I sure wish we got something for all that hard work ☹ My husband works 6 days a week as a butcher - it's his 32nd year with the company. I'm on disability and make approx $2,000 a month. Between the two of us we can barely live. We don't own a house because we can't save up 20% for a down payment, especially since the prices keep increasing. The average price of a house in California is $904,210 which is up 11% since April of last year. That would mean we have to save $180,842 and also have money for closing costs and real estate agent fees. That could never happen and is quite disheartening 😔

@@IceLynne the answer to your dilemma seems obvious to me but maybe there are other moving parts. You do know don't you that California is the single most expensive real estate market in the country? You are on disability so moving isn't going to change that status and your husband as an experienced butcher can work in all 50 states am sure and get a job within a week. I live in Laguna Beach and my house is worth well beyond the average price point for California homes. Since I can afford it I don't complain and I stay for now, but I can't imagine staying if I couldn't. Figure $5 million net worth to be in the desirable areas. Who wants to live in Fresno? Anyway, I own properties around the United States and I just bought a beautiful home in Indiana 3000 ft.² six years old, for $192,000. You might be able to swing that and the quality of life there supersedes that in California by a country mile if you are middle-class or lower middle-class let's just say. The middle of the country is chock full of examples just like this.

I have been watching your channel for over 2 years. I moved to Mexico in May 2021. You have been a wealth of information on many aspects that apply to living in Mexico. The biggest thing that helped me tremendously was information you gave on the Mexican Consulate in the U.S. that had the lowest income requirement for residency in Mexico. My income was just a little above the minimum income requirement so I was able to qualify for Temporary Residency. I received the ok from the Consulate in the U.S. in November 2021 and January 2022, the income requirement at that Consulate increased by $600.00 USD more per month. It went from $1,745.00 USD per month to $2,300.00 USD per month. I was so grateful that I was following your channel or I would have never been able to meet the monthly income requirement at any consulate in the U.S. Thank you for the efficient, valuable and accurate information that you always provide. I am sure you will be able to make a comfortable income with creating content on KZbin full time.

Agree with the majority of the comments here regarding planning for your own care in old age. Like the OP, I would never expect my daughter (she is my only child) to care for me. I will plan for my own care, as a responsible adult. There is such a thing called Long Term Care insurance. I urge everyone to get a plan as soon as you are eligible (for most plans that starts at age 50). I know many cultures (my own included - I’m Mexican) stress caring for one’s elders however in American society and the way things work here, that is not usually feasible without great sacrifice by the caregiver, given how expensive it is to live here. Elder care is incredibly expensive, on top of being very emotionally and physically taxing. Sure I want to maintain being able to see my daughter, but I want to visit with her, and for her to have the freedom to continue living her life on her terms.

Super-interesting! It takes courage to reinvent yourself over and over again. But I am certain that those years that you spent in Mexico free of money worries count as some of your best years. I in a certain way also reinvented myself. Years ago I had married a Greek husband and fell in love with the country and lifestyle of Greece. I actually fell in love with Greece and I think as a result married a Greek. I divorced and bought myself a small place on a Greek island ,which I visited ,now for 34 years ,every summer. I was able to do this because I was a college professor in California. Because I was raising two young boys alone I was unable to permanently move to Greece. At age 81 I moved from Los Angeles to the Central Coast of California, away from the city. Everyone thought that I was crazy! One of my sons lives there now, on a hill surrounded by oak trees and peace and quiet. Now at age 83 I am presently enjoying my Greek island ,with its sunshine and friendly, welcoming people! I don’t think that my friends think that I am crazy any longer!!!
