What kinds of risks are you taking if you move overseas?
vagabondbuddha.com/our-liability-disclaimer-the-risk-is-on-you/
Thanks for sharing this with us. I have never considered retiring in Malaysia before. I'll have to visit at some point. I just got back from Sicily, Italy. I don't think I could retire there though. Not enough variety in international cuisine. Spain and Portugal are still my two favorite countries so far.
Thanks for interviewing me! I really appreciate it. It was great to meet you both. Hope to see you soon! 😊
Hi Andrew - I have been following your channel for a few months - a refreshing change from some of the more sensationalist channels out there. I highly recommended your no-nonsense, highly informative channel. Keep it up.
@@Databhoy Thanks so much! 😊
Taylor, did you interview Dan? They have a very interesting life style slow traveling the world.
Btw Andrew you're not alone in Malaysia..Earl Grey is always there by your side.. 👍🇲🇾😻☺️
@@decTac So true! 😊
Enjoyed watching Taylor, my brother, get interviewed by someone else for a change. 😊 We’ve grown closer since he started his vlog, and we will be arriving for our first visit to SE Asia on Friday, first to Vietnam and next to Malaysia. Can’t wait! I’m interested to learn about the other areas you’ve explored, so am subscribing now.
I have a friend from the US who has lived here in Kuala Lumpur for over 17 years,also the healthcare here is amazing.
I’m staying in Mexico now, but I consider Malaysia as my second retirement destination. This is my 1st year of retirement and I spent 6 months in Asia and 2 months in Mexico.
I watch both your channels for information. Thank you very much.
how's mexico treating you
@Geoffrey Currie I love Mexico. The people are very friendly and respectful. I'm making Mexico my permanent home.
@@donaldkinsey5245 thanks! it's an interesting one. I've always loved my mexican friends. I live in Taiwan now.
Discovered Taylor a couple of months ago on YT and have really enjoyed his videos. Great to see you interview him Dan, some different perspectives.
OMG my two heroes together!! You are both so awesome. Dan drew me into the FIRE movement and Taylor helped solidify my decision to retire to Malaysia. Sadly I'm still trapped in the Washington, DC area. (Taylor, maybe we met or were neighbors?) I don't qualify for the current horrific MM2H rules, and I've been waiting 6+ months for the S-MM2H visa. Whenever that's approved I plan to live in Penang and visit Sarawak for 1-2 weeks every few months until I hit my 30 days. I would consider moving to KL after a few years, but it's so overwhelming I feel like Penang is a better place to start.
Compared to Penang, KL is the most hectic city in Malaysia, because KL is the capital city for Malaysia. most of retirees (foreigners) will choose Penang for better life...😊
@@nofayusop82 Exactly!
Why is johore baru not on the list of places to retire? It lies next door to Singapore and a hours drive to nice beaches facing south china sea. Plenty of ferries to Indonesian islands. And lots of empty apartments due to havoc caused by silly policies regarding foreign purchase.
Please come to Penang, you will love it. Just visit KL on the weekends...
@@syedputra5955 Johor makan mahal ikut harga nak kapak warga Singapura.
I remember this guys channels. And im glad u could interview him
I loved Malaysia and the people. Beautiful food.
Andrew. I have just subscribed.
This is the collab I’ve always wanted! Love both of your channels.
Taylor is quite a character. His channel is one of my favourites
So glad to see Taylor on your channel! He's such a positive person.
Good interview, I am living in Hanoi, Vietnam. I am retired and married to a wonderful Vietnamese lady.
Hi Atkinson Sid, Would you like to be a guest start on one of my videos? Here is an example guest star video: ruclips.net/video/ySM_2jAC4v4/видео.html

Thank you for your comment. The detail of your comment makes this real for people. If you have a business, service, or RUclips channel, you could share that on the interview. Best, Dan
Just gonna share an alternative retirement if you love sailing and the ocean. The sailing community here is also good. If you love sailing, check Langkawi, Penang and Pangkor Marina. We live on a sailboat and meet quite a number of Americans living aboard here. They sail between Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia.
Come be guest stars on my channel. Go to contact us at vagabondbuddha.com
Thanks so much for the livaboard picture. I'm a sailor debating the livaboard option compared to the onshore housing option somewhere in southeast Asia. Much appreciated. Cheers.
I also follow Taylor; seems like such a nice guy. Keep up the good work Dan. And Taylor.
Enjoyed the video. Two fellas having a chin wag. I thought the most pertinent question was, “are you happy.”
Unsurprisingly, Taylor hit it out of the park. Thank you!
I didn’t realize you were living in KL . Good to see Taylor on your vlog. Join forces for better living in a the great Malaysian environment!
Cool shirt Dan... I am in Mexico but leaving in a few months
“Change and chaos not threatening to you” well said.
Fabulous interview! Many wonderful people! Beautiful world! Thank you for sharing!!!
Your videos are getting better every time. I like how you sped up the interview. Good lighting and the mics are nice- still some ambient sound-👍
I’m a tv producer- you’re sweating so next time grab a towel and cool off then use some light powder on the forehead to take down some shine. You can also use the light to hit the back of the head for more contrast.
Thanks Dan And Andrew. I found Andrew's channel some time ago and Andrew's been very insightful, Much appreciated. I lived in Penang in the last century and if I could obtain a visa I'd be going back to Panang ASAP.
Great interview, we love Andrew Taylor! We watch all his videos 👏💖
Hi Dan, like the rapid fire questions and getting Andrew’s happy retired life in KL. Hopefully MM2H program will improve requirements soon. 😊
Andrew did make an important clarification to Sarawak MM2H requiring 30 days a year there and most importantly does NOT permit living in West Malaysia ( KL , Penang etc ).
@@getsmartpaul The does "NOT" part is debatable. My agent said it's unenforceable, illegal, and is supposed to be corrected.
@@ericsblank They could enforce it by giving you a 30 day visa whenever you fly into KL, then what would you do? The new policy is so unclear and it seems like they are making up rules as they go along
@@CoolCat-rw6pp I would then contact my lawyer. It's in their constitution that Sarawak sets its own immigration rules and that legal residents of Sarawak have the right to live in western Malaysia. The S-MM2H makes you a legal resident of Sarawak. BTW, when traveling from Sarawak to KL there is no Customs or Immigration check. Oddly enough when traveling from KL to Kuching there is. So worst case, fly to Kuching and then fly to KL.
Wait for the revision of MM2H it will be a friendly one because the current Minister is from Sarawak. Meanwhile i believe the upcoming Sabah version will be a better choice if you talk about living (natural) environment and most importantly the air travel connectivity. KKIA is the second busiest airport in Malaysia after KLIA. You need to make sure there are plenty of direct flights in and out of the country.
This is great seeing two of my favorite RUclipsrs combine! Dan, I think I discovered your channel in 2018(?) because of your Malaysia videos. We have followed yours and Qiang vidoes to hack our way through Mexico, Panama and Portugal so far.
Taylor, you come across so friendly and authentic, we hope to be able to take you our for coffee someday in KL.
?? I know people from the US get a 90 day tourist visa to Malaysia. How long (practically) do you need to be away from Malaysia to restart a tourist visa? Like you we don't see a need to invest in retirement visas when there are so many places we want to visit. We could see ourselves spending possibly four months a year in Malaysia. We also want to split our time in Europe and Central America. Big thanks to my wife for working for the airlines for 30 years to make this travel possible.
I hope the visa program readjusts. Would love to keep peninsular Malaysia on my list...
I heard our PM will be revising the requirements. Not sure when exactly
Taylor is such an awesome guy, and I've watched most-all his videos. This was an exceptional interview, thank you for it.
So lovely to see you Dan, we love Taylor as well. We find the people in Penang super friendly and helpful. Thank you so much for another fabulous interview
This is so super interesting!!!!
Always enjoy your channel Taylor
Hi Taylor, the Part B penalty (actually I think it is part C or D) can be waived if you show that you did not live in the United States during the period you didn't have the coverage. I used to live in Malaysia full time until 2019 and was going to be penalized for not having the additional Medicare coverage I told them I wasn't living in the U.S. and thus there would be no point in buying the additional coverage.
What a great idea…movie night with chow and drinks once a month. Great interview (like always)
Omg such a great interview 🎉 I love his channel ❤️❤️
Great man Taylor. 👍👍❤️❤️🙏🙏
Thank you Dan and Taylor!!
Great interview 👍👍👍
God bless You, beautiful people
Thank You for your information 💖
Andy from Toronto
❤🇨🇦🇵🇱❤
I’m on the mm2h for the past 10 years been in Malaysia for 25 years. I’m from Seattle give a shout I’ll tell all the ins and outs of Malaysia. The trust is gone!
What did you mean by " the trust is gone!"

always love the topics and guests
Thanks a lot for letting us know how messy US is. I’m from Hong Kong and I’ve got an apartment in Johor. I’ve been thinking seriously about Malaysia when I retire and what you said did confirm my conviction.
KL has its issues but due to massive investment in infrastructure it's now miles in front of Penang from a day to day viewpoint.
Although KLIA is not the world's most efficient airport its international connections are fantastic. Penang has barely a handful of international connections
I'm subscriber in both channels Taylor is a great lovely personality thanks for sharing this
welcome..ampang is great suburb of KL
Great video as usual.
Interesting vlog. Keep it up !❤
Good information
Great interview and never considered Malaysia as a retirement option.
Great video!
Great interview Dan & Taylor. Dan, did you meet Earl Grey?
I'm a big fan of Malaysia and am actually in Sarawak right now. I have to admit that it's no KL or Penang and I don't think I could spend 3 moths here...just saying. Kuching is a nice small city, all spread out. Not much going on, even some of the malls are dead. Went to City One 'Mega mall' expecting a MEGA mall and half the shops were empty. It's also very humid here, walking around outside takes stamina. We are slow traveling, but after 10 days here we are looking at moving back to KL. Only so much you can do here.😂 Also, way less air-conditioning here, that's why we are always at the mall. Lots of food, but they are all open restaurants. My wife won't eat without A/C.🥵
Gotta luv Earl Grey
Kuching is very close to the equator, that's why it has the same climate as Singapore- stifling! Have you been to Kota Kinabalu? Are their mm2h requirements similar to that of Sarawak?
@@CoolCat-rw6pp I have been to KK. Great seafood, but also a small city. I don't know about Sabah's MM2H. I don't get how the Borneo side runs? When flying from KL to Sarawak we needed to go through Sarawak immigration, passport required and everything?
Well, I love his beach lifestyle and I'll follow his social media because he's so kind and interesting. It's definitely nice to see people living their dream, but I have to say that we live in the USA for around 2.5k per month, eat out at nice restaurants at least once a week, order takeout a couple times per week, go to the movies, see shows, take hikes, visit vineyards, own our home in a mild 4 season climate, drive a brand-new car, have quality healthcare and take a couple of vacations plus some road trips every year. Everyone speaks english, we're near family and friends and we don't have to fool with visas and paperwork which makes it a plus. It's doable here in the USA because we worked and planned while maximizing our investments and retirement accounts every year. We picked a small town with great weather, low taxation, homeowner and auto insurance premiums, a decent hospital, airport, restaurants and stores. We enjoy your slow traveling videos so much and hope to take the plunge doing so for a few years in the near future, but we know we'll never give up our US lifestyle to live fulltime in a foreign country. I love the USA.
Respectfully, small town USA and large SEA cities like KL appeal to different types of people, provide different options, and aren’t really comparable.
@@EasternDreamer615 No, but retiring in the USA in a comfortable environment is easier than many social media expat influencers give credit for. We live in a coastal state of the USA thus why we enjoyed and will follow this fellow's social media. We prefer that sea life, too and it's not hard with careful planning to achieve that right here in America.
@@globetrotting2628 May I ask which coastal town you retired in USA?
@@andre-qe5yr I don't live in a coastal town, I live in a west coast state where there are plenty of small town that are far more affordable and slower than big cities. However, it takes not much of a drive to get to the ocean, skiing, lakes, rivers, forests, mountains, etc. We would never choose a state that wasn't coastal. We are a road trip away from our kids, my parents, etc. I can't imagine living any other way, nor would I want to. We would be interested in slow traveling the world for a few years, though. The only reason for my original comment is due to people saying how affordable other places around the world are, then going onto say they only spend 2-3k per month yet having to deal with visa issues. We literally only spend 2.5k sometimes less per month living a good lifestyle here in the USA. We want for nothing. It's entirely doable.
@@globetrotting2628 How much is your health insurance ? You own your house or pay rent ( how much ) ? People can't afford the health insurance or rent .
Good content keep up the good work.
Prince court , pantai and gleaneagles are the best in kl. In penang 3 hospitals are just as good - lam wah ee, island, adventist.
KPJ hospitals as well as good
As a seasoned world traveler approaching retirement age, This interview is promising and inspiring. As my income is dependent on social security, Malaysia seems like a great option. Just hope it doesn’t become Californicated.
Love Malaysia from early 2000's - very language-friendly and friendly people...loved Penang + spent time in Kulim and some North Coast.. in the beginning, Taylor notes his medical bills are extensive --- yep, difficult to support his BMI well in the US (LOL - sorry) ...... get away from the ex-pat "Embassy area" ; there are other areas in Kuala Lampur. Learn Malay or Mandarin - not able to communicate over 9 years.... hmmm. Nice to know about the Sarawak | Saba area as well as KL. nothing to keep Taylor around "family"... says it all. but 2k/mon - WOW - yep - "TV-dinner or Movie-dinner". cannot live in US in a safe place for 800/mon.
Are you living in Malaysia now?
@@VagabondAwake unfortunately not - i only went there for a half-dozen corporate training trips for a couple of years 2002-4 .
Welcome to Malaysia mate.
D new requirements of around usd10k monthly income is ridiculous. Some pumpkin politicians pushed for that, without evaluating d pros and cons. Its a deterrent to potential retirees from abroad. With d new gomen l'm certain some changes will be amended to accommodate potential foreign retirees.
Good story!
Taylor is such an interesting authentic and inspiration intereviwee
Tayler was great ❤
Recently spent 6 weeks in Penang and could easily spend longer, but for grand children duties.
Taylor is Awesome. I've been following his channel from the beginning :)
Its good that they have amended the MM2H requirements for practical purposes.
Wow its Taylor, i watched some of his video too :)
Sabah is so beautiful. Very friendly locals, great food too! :)
This guy is bright.
For a westerners who got million of dollar or euro and etc. They can retired here in Malaysia comfortably. In 10 years time Malaysia will be more foreigner settle down here in Malaysia and slowly economy will grow.
Welcome to Malaysia.
Reason Sarawak & Sabah so easy because to attract expact to live that both states, peninsular Malaysia is already crowded.
Enjoy your retirement in Malaysia, I'm also live in ampang
I have watched his videos before
Seems like Very nice man
Malaysia is beautiful peaceful clean inexpensive country
maybe that's the reason why federal government change the rules for peninsular malaysia, so that more expats will choose Sarawak to retire, we malaysians hate over-populated area, balance is good.
I don't see all that many retired expats wandering around Malaysia.
I read that Malaysia will literally be classified as a 1st world country by around 2030? So the cost of living will go up?
Good interview.
Not possible by 2030
20 years ago they had a goal of 2020
Dude worked 40 years in the capital of the US, still can't retire in the US.
Amerika shit show
Malaysia, The US of South East Asia. Definitely 100% "benar sangat" means very true.
Maybe you could do a video comparing the Sabah and Sarawak mm2h programs? I think Sabah requires a medical exam.
I don't know about Sabah, but Sarawak required two medical exams.
@@ericsblank So how is life in Sarawak for you? I'm going there next March to check out the place.
@@chrisd7733 I wish I knew! I was there in September for my medical exams, bank accounts (yes plural), etc. Now I'm still trapped near Washington, DC waiting for the visa. But I found it to be a very pleasant place. The people are very friendly and the nature is spectacular. My only real concern as a single guy is meeting people. It seems like a great place to raise a family or to retire to with a spouse. But living there full time I think I'd go a bit bonkers after a few months, even with frequent trips to the peninsula side and nearby countries.
@@ericsblank The Story online is that Sarawak is now issuing approvals required people to live full time in Sarawak because too many people were using it just to move to Peninsular Malaysia. So how much you can do there would be a question. I guess it's somewhat reasonable that they want you to spend money in the place you move to. They say it takes 10 to 12 months to get approved, but you need to be quick to get there after that because they may reject you if you don't hustle to get there. But I'm guessing you knew all that - just some things I read online. As for me, I may just go there for holidays. I'm Canadian, and life is great here except for the extreme winter weather - but I can't really leave because my wife loves her job and makes good money. I hope you get your your approval. Have that passport ready!
@@chrisd7733 I've been hearing that, but it's illegal. It's in their constitution that Sarawak sets its own immigration rules and that legal residents of Sarawak have the right to live in western Malaysia. The S-MM2H makes you a legal resident of Sarawak. BTW, when traveling from Sarawak to KL there is no Customs or Immigration check. Oddly enough when traveling from KL to Kuching there is. So worst case, fly to Kuching and then fly to KL.
Sabah and sarawak are autonomous region. Yes applications for mm2h dropped by 90% last 2 years. This new gov will review it.
There are so many wonderful places to live i like bali and like vietnam
Too much background noise Dan!

From $2,200 USD a month to $10,000 USD a month in proof of income is an absurd increase. Having to stay in Sarawak for 30 days isn't so bad but it seems the government are going to flip-flop on it. Mexico has also increased their's to $3,800 USD a month income. I'm basically being pushed to live in the Philippines on every front.
@inflation millionaire indonesia doesn’t have the medical and government infrastructure offered in malaysia and thailand. the indonesian second home visa is still-born.
@@chrisj8764 30 days does not necessarily in one time.
Malaysia is very safe, no worries even late nites or wee hours. Matter of discretion n be wise
Violent robberies are rampant in malaysia
@@teatree6228 really how long have u stayed der? Or hearsay. Some form of gangster ism yes but very much controlled. Mostly arrested. However, d influx of foreign workers mostly blue color jobs contributed d surge in occasional snatching by cycling riding in tandem snatchers.after they robbed, snatched they will go back rest a month and come back. Mostly those from neighbouring countries, Singapore excluded.
Still it's very safe. Using ur discretion u can walk even with jewelries no such incidents. Peninsular is 90% very safe.u dint find mass fatal shootings even once a week a year except if police operations against robbers, but that is enforcement, not by individuals. Look at US
@@teatree6228 Nahh not really. I don't even lock my doors at night
You are lucky to be able to escape the chaos in the US now.
Medical care is excellent in Penang and Kuala Lumpur. The doctors and nurses are mostly trained in the west such as the U.K., Australia, and the U.S. Medical procedures adhere to western standards and protocol. And, you don’t have to pay an arm and a leg for treatments.
However, for the man-in-the-street in Malaysia, medical costs are high. The current inflation of food, gasoline, etc. is astronomical.
They use Malaysian dollars since their earnings are in Malaysian currency. They cannot convert to Malaysian dollars from U.S. currency the way the expatriates are able to do so.
Hi this is great thanks but I can’t seem to use the link to find his channel

Hi,I hope you are well ,I am one of your subscribers been watching you for years, looking at the Philippines to retire but this video caught my interest, tell me where I can get the same inferstructure and modern amenities like bgc philippines, where does that person live that your were interviewing, like his building and area,I have a budget of 2000 I am a foodie and I cook,thank you very much and God bless you and your family
Interesting to see Taylor being the interviewee !! and not the interviewer…lol.great interview, I agree with all Taylor says here !thumbs up 👍
Was interesting listening to your blog pitty you didn’t talk a bit more about Sarawak n retiring there seem like your more for KL, would be good if you explained more about people retiring to Malaysia
I want to retire to Kuching Sarawak as my partner is from there n where we want to live as I love the people, food and the place in general much better than here in England I miss it everyday
Malaysia and The USA have good relationships.
Dan, If you're ever in Kanchanaburi, Thailand, drop me a line and I'd be happy to be interviewed for your channel. I retired early (49 years old) about 4 years ago. The advantage I had was that I was a U.S. Peace Corps volunteer in Thailand about 30 years ago, so I speak Thai fluently. Look forward to meeting you. Love your channel. Regards, Mike

The government is set to review the present MM2H requirements to make it more flexible..
Those potential (and wealthy) applicants only are most welcomed to this elite group of residents.. good luck 👍🇲🇾
Sounds like a very satisfied expat 😊
One advantage is you are spending US$ you earn from your social security or pension. I don't know the impact of the "de-dollarization" whether they will still have the same buying power.
Hello Taylor you are obesity all because of the good lifestyle here.. Pls have 10,000 steps of walking to keep a long and healthy life... All the best God bless.
Wish we could have gotten an apartment tour 😉
We have stayed in this same building before. Just google Vagabond Buddha Kuala Lumpur and see a few of our posts and videos.
Did old Taylor renounce his citizenship? It's nice knowing you have an insurance policy where you can return to the US if things go south!
Of course not. He doesn't even have another passport yet. How would he travel?
How long will it take for Malaysia to straighten out the situation?
Hard to say with governments. But consider other options in the mean time. No reason to delay life. :-)
Dan, At 70 years old, my Social Security is a little over $2000 USD. Where is the best country, in your opinion for me? All inclusive.
I’m am retired in Thailand. $2000 isn’t all that much and it is probably better to list the kind of places you should avoid and that will be the big international cities like Hong Kong, Singapore and maybe Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur. No one can say what is an acceptable standard of living is acceptable to you but there will be less struggle outside the big cities. Look at smaller tourist hot spots that will have a lower cost of living and some western amenities. Most people will say that $2000 is the minimum for a comfortable western lifestyle but of course many are satisfied with less if for no other reason than that it is better than their home country alternative. If you plan to remain in a foreign country long term then it is best to look into the costs of a proper visa.
