  3. I remember when my best friend walked out into the hallway with tears streaming down his face and said, "It's a boy." We never vacationed in Thailand again.

  4. UK Social Security Pension would not cover any of these because on leaving the UK Pension Credit is cancelled, any disability payment is cancelled although I remember Portugal is one country where it can continue to be claimed? Leaving £884.80 basic pension is not going to pay the monthly rent/rates health insurance and other living expenses.

  11. The two biggest considerations when choosing a country when you have just a small pension income is the amount you're going to be taxed on that income, if any, and the minimum amount of monthly "passive" income like Social Security or pension required every month. Many countries require at least 1500 a month income from pension like Italy or Greece, two countries that have a low tax rate but Italy requires 3200 a month and Greece requires 2000 so that puts them out of consideration for many pensioners. Then there are places like Portugal which only requires about $900 a month income but you are taxed at more than 26% of that income, making it absolutely unaffordable to have a quarter of your pension gone. Many of the countries in this video mention the minimum monthly income needed however there is no mention of taxation. Good video though, thank you

  12. Costa Rica is without a doubt the most expensive country in Central America and one of the most expensive countries in Latin America.

  13. Few important things: 1- Some of these figures are far from thr truth. 2- US$ 1500 - 2500 is not low by any means, how many US citizens' pension is even this much? Hundreds of thousands of US senior citizens are living in their cars or camper van, many of them professionals who worked hard n paid taxes, while battling with 1990s financial/economy/unemployment n more problems. My cousin, a teacher n mother doesn't even get $1,000.- A month, but at least has her Medicare. 3- The figures you give must be added to health care monthly payments, as they want proof of income and private health insurance, so much higher figures. 4- Not every retiree has given up studying or working. We want to know about education, n working possibilities which we have in our countries. Your audience are not only US residents, but from everywhere. Yes, many things are more expensive in California, New York, or Auckland NZ, or Sydney Australia, but still we can live alright in other parts of the US, NZ, Australia, certainly, England, Canada. 5- What about Peru, Turkey, Hungary, Cuba, Indonesia, India, or small Islands that even pay you to live there? UNTRUE TITLE OF YOUR CLIP SAYING...WITH NO MONEY!!!!

  14. I live in New Zealand and we have got the same issues here , high housing costs and rents , high unemployment and low pay rates for workers and we have homeless people also.

  15. Sure as hell didn't help when they invited 20 million homeless people

  16. Vietnam is 6 position. And upgrade day by day

  17. One of the best country in my mind are the Philippines. Cost of living is low, English is widely spoken, health care system is ok, people are friendly, no taxes on foreign SS, no need to pensioner visa. Get a 30 day tourist visa, renew every month (easy process) for a small fee. This can be done for up to 3 years, then leave the country for a few days, come back and start all over again.

  18. Thank you. This gave me a much better idea of what it would cost to live on retirement income in these countries.

  22. Thailand and Vietnam make sure that All people can afford to live with dignity, pride and joy. Low cost of living makes people and not too worry too much about how they are going to live and survive. Our country the USA is killing our poor and middle class families by increasing the cost of living standard and that is why the majority of us are suffering and dying nowadays. Too many problems and homeless people. No real solution to many problems in the USA. Sad.

  23. I lived in Costa Rica, Limón province, i found it much cheaper than in San José or on the west coast where many expats chose to live..I learned to speak Spanish even though many people could speak English on the Caribbean coast, but it's much cheaper to live in Nicaragua or even Mexico in my opinion

  24. Panama. It is absolutely fantastic and close to the US🎉
    12

  35. I'm living in Portugal, Algarve and it's expensive, the healthcare here in Portugal is the worst ever......I've lived in Cyprus and it's also expensive there but the healthcare is better. This video is a bit misleading.....I came back to Portugal 5 years ago before that I was here from 2014 to 2017 the change is big and the expenses are very high.....it's not normal.......I'm planning to move to Spain.....or Greece I've lived also in Greece and it's dueble....the healthcare is goooodddd.....and also the renting and monthly expenses are cheaper

  36. My question would be what’s the quality of healthcare? How much does it cost? Can healthcare treat serious illnesses such as heart issues or cancer?

  39. It is surprising that crime, drugs, & communication in languages other than English don't seem to be relevant factors that make up for a quality of life..

  44. The biggest problem is greed corporate investments focusing on quarterly profits in residential homes excluding single family first time buyer opportunity and affordable rentals. NOBODY SHOULD OWN MORE THAN ONE OR TWO RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES. RENTALS AS A FORM OF ENRICHMENT IS NOT WHAT POST WW2 RESIDENTIAL HOMEOWNERSHIP WAS INTRODUCED TO PUBLIC FOR.

  45. The rapid rise in the cost of living seems to be happening all over the world, even in my country where the cost of living is relatively low. Housing prices have risen by 100% in the last ten years and have become almost unaffordable for the middle class. Most people prefer to live in an apartment unit rather than a single-family home.

  46. There goes the dam American dream...seems more like a dam nightmare to me.😮😢

  47. The Hard Rock in AC is definitely not the largest casino in the world. Not even close. It is not in the top 10 in the US. What crack head AI wrote this script?

  48. 8:45 if Americans are not welcome in Somalia, then why is Minnesota welcoming Somalians?

  49. Poorest countries in Europe???...really?? I am from Sweden, how can call Polen, Spain etc. "Poor" Yes their standard of living are not as high as Denmark, Germany, Finland or Ireland for example , but most of the countries mentioned here are certainty not poor, not even relatively poor. Yes, I agree with some of the countries mentioned like Moldova, Ukraine and Albania are Relatively poor but not poor like part of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. By the way, Armenia is technically a part of West Asia not Europe.
