As I scour the internet for retirement options for baby boomers, I like to share what I have found. I'm sure many of you are aware that Kristina and I have traveled over much of the planet looking at living, investment, rental and retirement options for ourselves as well as our readers. We like to provide cost/benefit analysis for north Americans, mostly baby boomers, looking to diversify their savings and investment as well as searching for quality of life, life experience, lower cost of living in a healthy and safe environment. Our travels have taken us to some pretty unpalatable places but along the way we have also visited some places that left wonderful memories and many where I would have loved to own a home. Many places offer excellent adventure travel opportunities but would not be a place I would want to call home.

Posted by Steve Linder on Tue, Oct, 05, 2010
After years of looking at options for offshore living, we have come up with a list of factors to consider when thinking of moving abroad. Choosing a country and deciding where to live abroad has it's challenges. It also has many benefits. For many people change is difficult. No place will be exactly like where you moved from but in many cases that will be good news. Make a list of the things important to you as well as the advantages and disadvantages of the locations you are considering. Don't ignore your present and future needs when you make a decision to move to a foreign country. For most of us it will be the things we did not do in life that we come to regret, not the things we did.
