Like the inspiration talk! Beautiful place! I’d like to add retiring healthy is more important than just wealthy! So live in a clean place with nice air and water quality!
I believe everyone should have a dream. It gets you up in the morning and is inspiring me to move to Mexico with my three dogs and husband. Thank you for your videos and wise words.
My time in Pattaya is coming to an end. Bangkok next and then Bali. Need to try and get that perfect shot of the passport so their website accepts it. It's not that big a hassle, but even something this small seems like a hassle when life in Thailand runs so smooth. Thanks for the vids; it's great to be here instead of Canada.
Awesome stuff. Headed to Korea tomorrow for a month then Thailand for a few weeks to see some places we didn’t see on last trip. Your latest videos are encouraging us to visit Penang. Keep up the great work Inspiring family and friends is great but they need to Take Action.
That Pom. juice is very good for you. Very good advice on money and how to behave. Just don't try to save money with dentists and shoes! What we leave behind is a lot of what matters. Help those who are coming up.
Chris, you are a solid role model ❤. I'm really trying to make progress on my shopping addictions. I may equate love from money , maybe need to look at my ego. Very serious moment of clarity . Working on this. Moonlight Bay Beach is a beautiful, good find.
Ok, I believe that Moonlight Beach is relatively close to where I will be. Thanks for the reminder about being careful walking there. I love the slight remoteness of the area so that I can have some peace and quiet.
Thank you for sharing this very kindly thoughts . We need to choose Kindness. The world around us needed DESPERATELY.!! Thank you.BLESSINGS TO ALL .! 🙌🙏🤙🌎🇵🇦🇺🇸😎😇
You are an excellent role model sir, thank you for your videos. I was due to goto Penang 12 years agoi but I was in KL and due to fly out to Penang in 6 days and Indonesian forest fires affected most of Malaysia and I had to fly home urgently due to my asthma being affected badly by the smoke. I know i missed out but i couldnt breathe so I had to leave quickly sadly and missed Penang completely, Have a great time ;)
When will you go to the Philippines? I'm here now in Puerto Galera to dive and a scouting trip for slow travel destinations. Such amazing people and surroundings. Love your videos, have been one of your first subscribers.
Can you please talk about why and what months of the year you chose to travel to SE Asia ? Hear about burning season, to hot summers 🥵 to many tourists? Please and thank you.! 🤙😎🌎🇵🇦🇺🇸
Even your shirt feels happier in Penang 😅. I would love to experience that curry chicken, nan and samosa. I am in Guatemala, and food here is horrendous. I just had lunch and it was really a boiled chicken and rice, No flavor or taste. You can have a lot of money on you and still go hungry. Lately I have to resort to fried chicken and french fries, there is nothing else decent here. I will take the fried chicken over boiled one.
How was the hotel and pricing over there? I've heard it's a bit pricey, thanks. BTW, today's show is very inspirational 👍 But, I need more self-discipline, LOL!
Yeah, had an Uncle, he and my dad 4 other brothers, all WW 2 Sailors, really had his act together, nice home air strip in the front yard drove a little crappy truck wore overalls, but it was like talking to Warren Buffett wished i would have listened much closer good man, PEACE!!!
You're in Batu Ferrenghi? There's not much out there, but beach resorts and a large night market(great hawker food centre). Will you be moving to Georgetown? There's more going on. We've stayed in Queens Bay, Georgetown, and Gurney. All great places.
I tell my kids they can learn something from everyone they meet. What to do and what not to do. I enjoy Penang and am considering it as a retirement destination. Mahalo. Would you consider visiting the cat beach sanctuary while you are in Penang?
Social media can increase the risk for depression, anxiety, loneliness, self-harm, and even suicidal thoughts. All due to this 'fake' lifestyle promoted by shallow people doing anything for likes.
How much of your time do you currently spend outside of Southeast Asia ? Do you travel to the US or Europe at all ? Also, you seem to budget with 2k in Southeast Asia, do you get along with the same amount in Central America or South America ?
I have a question. I suspect that some of the places you stay don't have in-room safes. In that case do you take all your valuables (passport, cash, computer) with you as you go for your walks, or do you leave them in the room?
@@SY-fz2sz great question I do not It’s an old laptop A Microsoft surface Super light though And metal frame Good travel laptop Main thing is to have a password on it and authentication with more than one device Otherwise, no stress I never had any issues even through Latin America
Hmmm, have to partially disagree, it depends in what environment you grew up, not to mention the fact there is a lot of jealousy and envy, even within one's own family. My motto is NEVER talk about money on a personal note, ESPECIALLY on " social" media, no benefits there whatsoever, most lifestyles are about "show and impress " even if that means digging a debthole, you show what is possible on a low budget retirement, whatever someone else does would be none of my business as much as my business is none of others people's business, I prefer privacy over posturing any time, each to their own though, do what suits you best 😊

Well said I agree !
Inspired by this video I will leave my couch and do something.
Haha very good ! Get out there and live !
Thank you for the inspiration. Marked the spot.
Again, another great video. 👍

The bay seems so peaceful... Beautiful sand. Great shot
It’s a lovely spot
In Malaysia English is spoken by almost everyone, another plus.
True I do find this
This channel should be called "The Lecturer"
Well haha, I hope it’s at least helpful :-)
Another nice video Chris....Looking to my own visit to Penang and Kuala Lumpur Dec and Jan coming up for a the first time visit...🙂

Inspiring family and friends is great but they need to Take Action.

Good point! Don’t save money in dentists and shoes
I think that’s so true
Welcome to Penang
Thank you :-)

You will really enjoy this hidden gem beach
If you have time go to Taiping there is a great park there which used to be an old silver mine
An old silver mine would be cool
I really like your vlog and I learn a lot. Thank you so much.
This was nice to read
This is my mission :-)
Awesome video😊❤

This is my first time here
I will return !
@@RetireandGo youre welcome, looks great, looks like I missed out oin a good place, Have a fantastic time,
When will you go to the Philippines? I'm here now in Puerto Galera to dive and a scouting trip for slow travel destinations. Such amazing people and surroundings. Love your videos, have been one of your first subscribers.
I went in 2023
I don’t know when I will be back
I think Eastern Europe in 2025
Lol. The bloopers. Have a good day. Can u link some of the places u r staying in. Thx.
I’ll have to work on this
I need to get tech savvy haha
Penang girls are extra Tangy!! Enjoy mate
Haha I see ! :-)
Can you please talk about why and what months of the year you chose to travel to SE Asia ? Hear about burning season, to hot summers 🥵 to many tourists? Please and thank you.! 🤙😎🌎🇵🇦🇺🇸
True
I’m in Asia all year
You can jump over to Eastern Europe for low cost living in burning season
@@RetireandGo what months of the year is the burning season ?? 😎 🙌🙏
????🙌🙏
Hey Bro hope you're doing well! Good one on the second blooper! Little warm was it? Be safe.
Oh yes I got toasted ! Haha
Fun videos 🎉
Thank you :-)

Yes true haha
Great foods here
How was the hotel and pricing over there? I've heard it's a bit pricey, thanks. BTW, today's show is very inspirational 👍 But, I need more self-discipline, LOL!
Yes over the month I will show my hotels
I stayed in a few
I’ll show prices and full video walk around ok?
Yeah, had an Uncle, he and my dad 4 other brothers, all WW 2 Sailors, really had his act together, nice home air strip in the front yard drove a little crappy truck wore overalls, but it was like talking to Warren Buffett wished i would have listened much closer good man, PEACE!!!
Air strip in yard sounds cool
I would like to get a glider license maybe
@@RetireandGo He was an exceptional man, you made it through dive school brother flying is easy, PEACE!!!
My plan is to retire cheaply in SEA country.
Nice!
You will enjoy
You deserve it
You're in Batu Ferrenghi? There's not much out there, but beach resorts and a large night market(great hawker food centre). Will you be moving to Georgetown? There's more going on. We've stayed in Queens Bay, Georgetown, and Gurney. All great places.
I heard good things about Georgetown
I stayed a few days there
Walked around
A nice little city !
@RetireandGo walk around Gurney. It's where all the Expats live. Shopping malls, restaurants, night market (not the best).😁
I tell my kids they can learn something from everyone they meet. What to do and what not to do. I enjoy Penang and am considering it as a retirement destination. Mahalo. Would you consider visiting the cat beach sanctuary while you are in Penang?
Interesting!
I will have to check on that sanctuary
Chris hope all well mate - I'm in George Town let me know if you are around for a coffee?
Very nice !
I might swing through that area
Chris you swerve 😅
If you eat food that is too hot spicy, drinking some milk can help
True ! Haha
I need it
The unfortunate thing about penang sea is jellyfish. Because there is lack of turtles to eat them.
Interesting! Watch out for them
Btw I love how you crap yourself on the intro with the tiger😂
Haha I was like dang !
People these days live for a 'fake' lifestyle (not helped by social media) not for a wholesome, productive life
I agree
Study work invest workout laugh enjoy life
This is beauty
Social media can increase the risk for depression, anxiety, loneliness, self-harm, and even suicidal thoughts.
All due to this 'fake' lifestyle promoted by shallow people doing anything for likes.
where do you get your shirts from... they look very lightweight and I'm looking for some when I come to Thailand in a few months
Yes, these are from Bali
Brand is ALFI
thank you
Is there time of the year when the weather is a bit more tolerable? Too much heat, I can't deal with. That is why I am stuck in Central America
I totally understand
Yes there are rainy seasons
Also, you adapt fast
How much of your time do you currently spend outside of Southeast Asia ? Do you travel to the US or Europe at all ? Also, you seem to budget with 2k in Southeast Asia, do you get along with the same amount in Central America or South America ?
Great question
I was in 8 Latin American countries this year the videos are up
January February
I have a question. I suspect that some of the places you stay don't have in-room safes. In that case do you take all your valuables (passport, cash, computer) with you as you go for your walks, or do you leave them in the room?
Great question
True, often no safe
Check out O’Neil brand shirts
Model expedition TRVLR
The best
Ultimate
I have a link
@@RetireandGo What about your laptop? Do you take it with you at all times?
@@SY-fz2sz great question
I do not
It’s an old laptop
A Microsoft surface
Super light though
And metal frame
Good travel laptop
Main thing is to have a password on it and authentication with more than one device
Otherwise, no stress
I never had any issues even through Latin America

I totally understand!
Was it spicy or just too hot?
I think hot haha
I was like dang ! Haha
I never see anyone swimming?
That might be the time of day
I get started early haha
What area are you in Penang Malaysia beach name
It is called Batu Ferringhi
1st
Boom ! Nice
There is nothing to say ...
I understand :-)
Have a good week
