@bobbyboy1125 Americans have good visa free access. There are multiple temporary residence visas available & after 9 months in Chile you can apply for permanent residence. After five years you can apply for citizenship. Chile has a Teir A Passport with access to the US, Canada & New Zealand. If you run your own international business, you may be eligible for an APEC Business Traveler's card as Chilean if you naturalize that adds potentially visa free access for 30, 60, or 90 days to China, and Australia along with other Pacific ie Southeast Asia, East Asia & Oceana countries too.

My father spent a year there before I was born. He really didn't like the place. People kept shooting at him.

@sr9253 There are plenty of baby boomers already retired. All of them born from 1946-1955 are over 65. The Jonesers are starting to retire now, the mico-generation between the Boomers and early Xers.

@Arabzene Despite & in part because of my father's history, I want to go there, DaNang specifically because it is actually one of the fastest growing private sector economies in Asia. Whenever I see YouTube videos of westerners in Saigon, DaNang, or Hanoi & the streets are filled with western brand signs for stores & restaurants I think it was such a massive waste of lives and resources to spend so much to protect the Firestone or was Goodyear rubber plant near DaNang where more than 80% of US & Aussie forces in Vietnam had been concentrated.

@MGSavoy The "Jonesers" term comes from Keeping Up with the Joneses. It is the term I've seen for the later half of the Boomers who often have more in common with Gen X than their older siblings or cousins born right after the War. The late 50s part probably has more in common with their older Boomer siblings and cousins, but Steve Jobs and Bill Gates were both born in 1955 & after '55 was the part of the Boomers more likely to have transitioned into using tech with no problems than the older Boomers earlier in their careers. I mean I'm part of Generation X, but also the micro-gen of Xennials, so most of the time I'm with X, but a good portion of the time I'm with Millennials too.

@ThuyPham-lr5dc He really was quite skinny at the time.

@DeanAndDrums1 I missed the r in micro-gen as in micro generation. They break them down like that though cuspers or micro-generations. The late 70s to about 81 maybe 82 folks like me have been called Xenniels as a micro-gen or Generation Catalano by the fans of My So Called Life.

@joyrunzel9203 You clearly did not read what I wrote. The thing most people understand about broad generalized generational truths is they always have exceptions. You are not the mean, you are the curve breaker, calm down.

@morhaimtyr4173 I think I read somewhere Cambodian Banks were paying 8% interest fairly recently & Cambodia transacts business in USD so currency risk is minimal.

If you could actually find a place to live & keep costs even under $1500 a month in the Algarve on say a D2 or D7 Visa, the Algarve might not be a bad place for someone with low income given the benefits of the society to low income workers and the value of the passport you could obtain within 6 years of living in the country. It has a lot of potential for ExPats from the US, Canada, the UK, Australia, Ireland & New Zealand given the high population of English speakers & English language ExPats already in the region too. it should make the transition easier.

Is it true that the change in the property ownership law forbidding the ownership of agricultural land ie any land outside a few major cities in Georgia by foreigners means that a backyard garden for that foreign land owner is now a no no?
