    I keep telling everyone at work, I'm probably going to retire early and go overseas and they just laugh, and laugh, and laugh because they think I'm joking. But, I'm not. The guy who sits next to me is in somewhat similar circumstances. He lost a lot of jobs due to financial recessions and so he has only been at this job about 7 years and he says "I will probably have to work until I die." and I say to hell with that! I have been there 6 years and get vested in the pension at 10. I won't have a lot of years, but I'll get about $1100 per month. Add to that SS, if we still get it, which I hope we do, and I'll be golden in someplace like Sri Lanka or the Philippines. And I'll enjoy the water and the sunsets and maybe have a few beers, but I don't drink anywhere near like I did when young, so I'll keep it under control.

It is not for everyone, and you may find it doesn't suit you, so don't burn the bridges, and have a plan b for life back home. Dan covers a lot of the points you need to plan for in his site.

All other Buddhist countries are a combination of Buddhism and something else. The Mahayana Buddhism of South East Asia is only half Buddhist in its philosophy the other half is influenced by what ever the original religion of each country was. Sri Lanka is pure Buddhism though. No mystic magic stuff or Bodhisattvas or" fat laughing Buddha ". The real Buddha was a skinny guy from Nepal. Sri Lanka is pure genuine Buddhist.

It even includes visa and some med requirements. 3 bdrm, 2 bath townhouse, AC and mostly home cooked meals. I think perhaps many countries you can do the same (i.e., $400-$600) as long as you're not paying the expenses of a lot of other people, and/or a high maintenance partner. I try to wrap my head around why some single guys say they need at least $2K-$3K to barely survive. They talk about 'lifestyle,' but leave out what that 'lifestyle' is. Anyway, great video!

    I Live in Florida. I Receive just Under $1,400 a Month on Disability. Everything I own I OWN. Land, Truck, House/Camper, Motorcycle and a Few other things.. MAIN Bills are as Fallows.
    $35-80 a month Electric depending on season.
    $90 a month Internet and Landline Phone
    $100 Truck and Motorcycle Insurance
    $50-100 Gas for Truck and Motorcycle.
    Could just Round everything up and say it's $400, NOT Including Food that is a Combination of Eating In and Out.
    $500 is Put away a month or Will start to be because I just got done fixing the Bike for $5,000.. Leaving AROUND $500 for the Food and Odds and Ends and then Tags and Taxes at the Start of Each Year... If I need stuff, I eat In more. And eating only Once a Day helps, not including Snacks like Sunflower Seeds and Chips from time to time. Eating Out is between $15-$22 Depending on Day and/or where or use of Coupons at Subway to make that $15-22 Split between 2-3 Days..
    And People say I can Not live in the Philippines or even Vietnam on My Budget. Only problem I see is, in Vietnam, You have to keep renewing your Visa every few months and in the Philips, I could Technically become a Citizen and Still receive my Disability Payments but Vietnam is a Way Better Country to live in. Cleaner and Nicer, more Honest People and not as many Power, Internet, Water, Sewage Problems.
    Could Not care about any kind of Fish, I am a Pork, Chicken or Beef Guy. I get Sick on Fish. I would need Dog Food for my Dog.
    I would NEED a US VA Clinic to receive my Medical and Would NEED to Trust the Mail Service to Receive my Medications...

    I loved the affordability of Sri Lanka. Went there with my husband in December 2022. I can't agree that I felt safe when out alone. I was accosted twice by random men and have heard similar stories from other women. I was never bothered when I was with my husband.

    Dan, would it be possible to do a future interview with your guest after he has had time to experience his new home base and surrounding travels?

    It would be worth living there for 3 or 4 years just to stockpile some $

      I guess. It would be more worth it to find a way to make $1000 US evrymonth while being there and not having to work way before retirement is even thought of

      I went there in 2012-very different then,people were genuinely friendly ,happy to see tourists.Over the years it has changed-tourism corrupts to a large degree-last year was not a very pleasant experience and I wont be back.
