    After this last election here in the United States, I stopped watching the news channels and late night talk shows and guess what? My stress levels have gone way down. I'm making my plans to leave for Thailand hopefully next year. I'll be 63 yrs old and still in pretty good shape for an old guy. Your TH-cam videos are inspiring and have given me the balls to go for it and go find my paradise on earth. Thank you.

      I will moderate that!
      I think it is good to avoid anything discussing the news.
      But listing to news itself is usually ok. Just to stay in touch, but for the love of life stay away from commententors

      I'm Canadian and did the same thing. No more bs politics and news drama. 63 isn't old brother. I'm gonna be 60 in 2025 , planning to retire around the same age you are now. Lots of life left if you have your health. Stay happy and healthy.

    I am with you sir. Save and grow your money for early retirement. I retired in 2021 at age 54 and never looked back. And guess what, I have more money now, three full years after I had retired. It did not happen by accident, this was decades of planning my scape.
    As for enjoyment, I am good at that. The key is to entertain yourself, no help needed from anyone else.

    The more we focus on the negative , the more we feed into the negative realm , which in turn creates more negativity. It's a vicious cycle. Break it by having thoughts that are lovely, pure, and noble.

    Chris I love your attitude. It doesn't matter where you live. Life is challenging, just be positive and enjoy every single day. You only live once. Many expats who live in Thailand and benefit from being there still complain a lot. Think about the local people and their small income. They should appreciate the opportunity.

    I love playing the guitar. My brother in law once said "the older you get you need something that makes you want to get up in the morning" as you just alluded to. Coffee. I made this comment before seeing you with the guitar at the end. Bruce Frantzis said many years ago, in this season of forgiveness don't forget to forgive yourself. Good advice.

    You are absolutely correct about the 'disaster bias' on TH-cam. A channel I watched was a guy whose views went from a handful to thousands almost overnight. He stopped making vids of him and his dogs, and then started talking about all the problems he had. That was OK for me for a little while, but it just became too depressing.

    We brought in a news blackout in my home when I was serving in Iraq - my kids didn't know I was there but obviously my wife did, and the constant 'news' stories that were coming out of there really affected her. When I came back after a year I really noticed how even local horror stories took up entire news bulletins and newspapers. I especially noticed the horrific content in the so-called 'news' reports on the car radio - murder, assault, etc. etc., when I was bringing the kids to school. Even to this day - 20 years later - we turn down the radio when the news comes on. I've often said that there should be a rule - 'No news is good news' before 10am. I haven't bought a newspaper in years - maybe I'll start when they bring out a 'positive news only' paper!

    There's an old Buddhist joke: Life sucks, and then you live. As we know, desire is the cause of all suffering. But the flip-side is that it's our responsibility to be happy. The tough times will come, but it's our job to be as happy as possible in the non-sucky times. ... Will fly to Chiang Mai the first week of January. Cannot wait! Cheers.

    My understanding is that algorithms work based on what people are clicking on. The more clicks a topic gets the more related topics will be recommended. So if that's true , we are partly to blame, no? So click on happier positive topics people.

    Retirement's here, let’s pack up and go,
    To Thailand’s beaches where the warm breezes blow!
    With a smile on our faces and sunscreen in hand,
    We’ll sip coconut drinks while we lounge in the sand.
    Next, off to Singapore, where the skyline’s so bright,
    We’ll feast on some chili crab, what a delight!
    Shopping in Orchard, oh what a spree,
    But let’s keep some cash for our next cup of tea.
    In Malaysia, we’ll hike through lush forests so green,
    Climbing the Petronas-what a view to be seen!
    Nasi lemak for breakfast, then off to explore,
    This traveler's life is never a bore!
    Vietnam calls us next with its pho and its charm,
    We’ll cruise through Ha Long Bay, it’s sure to disarm.
    From bustling Saigon to Hanoi’s old streets,
    Every bite of banh mi is one of life’s treats.
    Then onto Cambodia, Angkor Wat's our goal,
    Exploring the temples will surely feed the soul.
    With laughter and joy as our travel guide,
    We’ll soak in each moment with hearts open wide.
    But wait! How do we fund this grand escapade?
    With smart investments-let’s not be afraid!
    Automate savings, let them grow slow,
    A little each month makes your travel fund glow.
    Index funds and stocks can help you thrive,
    While keeping your dreams of travel alive.
    And don’t forget budgeting-track every dime,
    So you can enjoy every moment sublime.
    Now let’s not forget our vlogger friend dear,
    Filming adventures while sipping cold beer.
    With daily uploads and editing flair,
    He works hard for viewers who love to compare.
    He captures the sights with a smile and a grin,
    But behind all that fun is where the grind begins.
    From sunrise to sunset, he films every scene,
    Showing us places we’ve only just dreamed.
    So here’s to retirement and travels galore,
    With laughter and joy-who could ask for more?
    Pack up your worries; let your dreams take flight,
    For life is an adventure-let's make it just right!

    I'm here due to many of the things you described and your spot on. Would you recommend Phuket over Hua Hin or should I stay another month (extend stay). I've been traveling 2 years in 9 countries. Averaging 5 miles walking per day, Yoga and working out (noe more meds and no more stress). But now in Asia (Thailand) for first time. I'm also probably going to not sign up for Medicare at 65 in 5 months. Healthcare is better overseas in many Countries. I love my Keen sandals too.
