    For me, if im fortunate enough to generate 3,000 a month I would rather move to Malaysia than Thailand. The english proficiency, and lack of pollution are factors that make Malaysia more desirable

      Embarking on this new chapter of retirement? Remember, proactive financial planning is the key to unlocking a secure and fulfilling future. Instead of solely relying on any factor, consider staying invested with a trusted financial advisor. They can guide you towards strategic investments, ensuring your retirement is not just stable but prosperous. Take control of your financial destiny and embrace the retirement you've always envisioned!!

    The issue with Vietnam is you have to do visa runs or you have to get married, go to school or work. There is no retirement visa.

    It would be helpful to mention there are additional costs such as international health insurance, out-of-pocket medical/dental/vision care, virtual mail services, streaming subscriptions, visa fees, clothing, etc...beyond the basic cost of housing, food, transportation, entertainment and travel. Best to do a detailed budget of your complete household expenses and include an extra 10%-20% cushion for unexpected expenses. $1000/mo. is not really practical even in Vietnam.

    From my experience, Matinee & discounted movies are usually older movies.

    Vietnam specifically. Air quality in both Hanoi and HCMC (Saigon) should be considered if one has cardiac or respiratory challenges. Even "out-of-the-way" resort locales like Da Nang or Hoi An have AQI issues. Also, there are public and private hospitals. Quality of care and costs can differ significantly.

    • @thenigerianfile

      Very, true on the air quality, #1 for me, and I ❤ Vietnam. I felt best in the heights of Danang and in Nha Trang, albeit short trips including Saigon, Hanoi, Hoi An and Hue.

    I have family members that are looking at retiring to Portugal sooner rather than later. But if I was going to look at retiring in Europe, I would much prefer the idea of Italy! I've been there several times now, twice on actual "Italy trips" and numerous times as part of cruises. It is certainly a place I could go back to again and again and again!

      Just tell them not to buy property without getting an agent or at least an attorney first. Only go to an international agent.

    Enjoying your videos. What is your go-to resource for finding accommodation by the beach, esp in Thailand? We recently visited Bali, and found nice but reasonably priced hotels on Agoda, but this was for 4-7 days at each place.

    The movie theatre price thing in the US could be dependent on city, state, and theatre - in my case, a solid base ticket price for 1 adult for Oppenheimer would run $12, but it does allow to add a combo of a popcorn and large drink for $17. For a grand total of $29. At that point it's better to just pay for the movie and maybe bring outside snacks if you don't get caught - I don't recall if bringing in outside food is still frowned upon though. I know it used to be when I was growing up.
    Back to price comparisons, a different theatre nearby has no options for combos with the ticket and its a $9.49 price. It was pretty much the same across the board for other movies too. I remember back when afternoon matinees were more of a thing, the prices were cheaper because you saw the movie earlier in the day.
    Compared to my local prices, somewhere like New York probably charges $17 for the ticket alone and maybe another $17 for the combo, making it $34. That's pretty crazy and you also have to pay online ticket fees if people don't use the in-person kiosks anymore - and I think most are encouraged to reserve online these days anyways.
    Thank you for the video on this! Very helpful as always!

    It will be great to include other countries in SE Asia, Europe and Aus/NZ in the same 1000/3000/5000 price points. I also wonder what the price points would be for Aus/NZ in cheaper cities.

    We recently visited Argentina for a couple of weeks. There's quite a bit of economic and political instability there, but Buenos Aires is a really beautiful big city. We haven't done the number crunching, but my impression is that for $3-$5k in US dollars you could live quite well.

    You can’t get the #1 meal ‘deal’ (sandwich, fries, sm/med drink) at any fast food joint here in the US for less than $10. And don’t get me started on my favorite Five Guys - $16 + tax for a single burger, little fries and drink! 😬
