    Am 58 retiring next year but the thought of retirement gives me weakness. My apologies to everyone who have retired and filing social security during this time after putting in all those years of work just to lose everything to a problem you never imagined to happen. It’s so difficult for people who are retired and have no savings or loved ones to fall back on.

      True, It has never been easier to understand how to build your money after retirement than it is right now with the inflation, when you may study and experience a completely variegated market passively by employing a successful portfolio-advisor. The impacts of the U.S. dollar's gain or fall on investments, in my opinion, are complex.

      Even if you’re not skilled, it is still possible to hire one. I was a project manager and my personal portfolio of approximately $850k of my retirement pension took a big hit in April due to the crash. I quickly got in touch with a financial-planner that devised a defensive strategy to protect my funds and make profit from my portfolio this red season. I’ve made over $250k since then.

      I also retired to the Philippines, in 1983, after completing 20 years of military service. It was/ is the smartest move I’ve made in my life! At the age of 79 now, I collect SS. Also my military pension and 100% military disability pay. My life is very pleasing. I have a loving caring Filipina wife. We adopted a 6-week-old Filipino baby boy, who is now 34 years old. I am loved and cared for. If my health continues to hold up, I am sure to pass 100 years in my life, unless my military disabilities take a turn for the worst. But for now, my health is under control. 😎

    My wife Costa Rican,(local) and I live on $5,000 per mo. and it’s almost paycheck to paycheck. It is the 2nd most expensive country in all of Latin America. Costa Rica has a cost of living 47% higher than Mexico. I pay $500 per month for insurance and food, electricity, gas, cars , clothing,and supermarkets are all more expensive than in the U.S. Crime has gone way up do to it becoming a Narco nation where the drug trade is now the largest employer. In 2023 the murder rate went to 17.4 per 100,000 and 2024 is worse.
    It’s nice to visit and relax in the tourist areas and a handful of wealthy expat area on the beaches are great to live but if retirement,and a lower cost of living is your goal look keep looking.

    Im retired in the Philippines where it's pretty affordable here and staying is really easy. 2 to 6 month tourist visas for up to 3 years or SRRV according to age with a deposit or special military visa with a small deposit. I have a 13A marriage visa to a Filipino citizen which cost me 6 dollars a year for a permanent resident. You can find rents from 150 to 650 dollars for nice studios to one bedrooms condos. My cost are 50% lower here than in the states comparing apples to apples. The medical and dental are very cheap too. Travel is still very affordable from Island to Island with over 7000 to chose from. English is very well spoken and used here on their traffic signs, courts, hospitals, malls and restaurant menus. We have 4 people in our household and my budget runs about $1800 a month with A/C, a house helper, SUV and a little travel.

      Philippines is one of the cheapest country if you want to retire it will cost you around US1,200 to US 1,500.00 if even US1,000.00 if you are budget concious. Mr Faronray is right with a budget of US150 to US500 you could rent a condominium or a small house. With a budget of US1,200.00 you could have a small house, helper, food and medical for a month. Even medical expenses is quite cheap converting US1.00 to php55.00 you could survive. Nice places to retire are in Tagaytay city with cool climate , if you want beaches you could go to Batangas which is quite near Tagaytay, you could choose Baguio if you want cooler climate and mountainous area, Cebu, Bohol with its famous beaches, Siargao if you want surfing. There are lots of places to choose from. Most Filipinos speak English so you wont get lost. You could seek advice advice from other Americans who retired here.Some prefer cooler climates like the ones I’ve mentionedand others prefer the beach whichever they want.

    Will I have a job in the aviation department? I'm an A&P Mechanic with multiple aircraft maintenance ratings and 31 years combined maintenance and quality control experience.
