What do you live off of?
My wife. OMG..... I'm a pimp?
Edit: She works full time. I manage what is left of our investments. To young for SS and cashed out on pensions when the cash out times were good.
The mention of pimp on the OP was just a jest?
But as long as it works......more power to you LOL

Mutual fund savings. Lucky to be in a profession where 3 mos of work a year in the USA allows me to do nothing here for the other 9 mos. Veterans Admin. for medical care instead of expensive US health insurance critical for the bottomline. I do hope that 4% retirement rule is for real over the long run.
Why? What do YOU live off of.
Still in the rat-race for two more years, si Dios quiere
then, is DR one way ticket baby!Worked from there until a few months ago. Planing on living off of my retirement check, rental income and savings.

La cosa siempre esta dura, no matter what you live off of!

just wondering how this info is going to help you? How does it help you put together your $2k a month that we are all saying you need to come and live here? Or are you asking the question that you want to ask.. which is are we still hanging on?
I had a friend who was here on a SS check of $700. He taught English and made it.. barely.. then moved up to Villa Mella and lived large. The great thing about this country is that with even a very few dollars there is always a place to go.
I know places where I can rent a house for $150 a month. I mean places that I like. OK, there are no expats, but there is running water, and electricity and internet.. and guys with conchos to ride me around.. and fresh food. So what do I need?
By the time I qualify for SS, the money will likely not be there anymore.
But if it's still is there, I have a solid $2,500 per month to look forward to as of today. If I continue making the same income I make for the next 30 years, probably double that.
I haven't had the gonads to gamble my money in stocks. Not that I have much to play with.
