I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.
@Margerat-x The crazy part is that those advisors are probably outperforming the market and raising good returns but some are charging fees over fees that drain your portfolio. Is this the case with yours too?
I’m in Kuala Lumpur right now on a two month holiday. Can agree that the healthcare is top notch, cost of living is excellent, good availability of everyday services through Grab, level of English is pretty good. After coming from a holiday in Istanbul this place was much much more enjoyable for me. My only con would be the level of pollution and difficulty to breathe in the city centre can be a pretty big deal for someone that is health/fitness conscious
i suggest you to explore a bit more on why the weakness of both the Ringgit and the counrty's real estate market - and the underlying reasons of why they develop the residence visa program.
Had a consultation with Flynn this afternoon and can not speak any higher about these guys. Don't be afraid to ask for help and have a consultation. They are awesome! 😊👍🏽
While I love it there and will be there soon (have my MM2H visa), I will say it is bloody hot. So, folks who do not like hot and humid tropical weather will not want this area. Sure, air conditioning is everywhere but the extreme heat can be a dealbreaker for some folks.
We will say two things: 1. You do get used to the heat over time. You'll still get hot, but you'll deal with it better. 2. Malaysia has a few places that are a bit cooler than others. The Cameron Highlands in particular is cool all year round.
Everyone has a different view on this. It's possible to do it on USD 1k per month. However you'll probably need more than that if you want a higher end apartment, like fancier restaurants and like the nightlife.

@Margerat-x That's actually quite impressive, I could use some Info on your FA, I am looking to make a change on my finances this year as well

@Margerat-x I will give this a look, thanks a bunch for sharing.

We agree with all of this. Air pollution in particular is pretty ubiquitous amongst Asian capital cities.
Sarawak got better air quality except during indonesia burning season

Does having relatives there help?
That depends on the type of relatives. You're welcome to book a free discovery call to see if we can help.
How much money to retire in Malaysian
Everyone has a different view on this. It's possible to do it on USD 1k per month. However you'll probably need more than that if you want a higher end apartment, like fancier restaurants and like the nightlife.
@@offshoreinasia USD 1,000 per month is not enough. You are seriously underestimating and I do not mean "high end" living.
