Mac its all pleasure. I wanted to travel before I get too old to enjoy it. Also looking at retirement in a new place. I spent over 35 years in a small Alaskan village, and life gets harder here when your older. That easy island living sure is tempting. compared to chopping wood here every day. Not to mention the instant poverty when ever my body starts breaking down, and need a hospital or old folks home. I think I can do much better than the US system, of take everything you have then throw you in a government run facility to be miserable until I die. I think I have a better plan. im with you Jeff....if I didnt have a kid I would be retired in pinas where melisa could take care of me in my decrepit age I am not so sure schooling and raising a kid in the US is going to make that child any better. Look at what they are turning out now. In the Philippines every kid and adult for that matter called me sir. and showed great respect. Not so sure I would get that in most of the US. For $100 US a month you can hire a live in helper to care for you when that day comes. I cant imagine the cost here in the US for elderly assisted living cost.

The cheapest place in the world to live according to Google? Uganda; it is also apparently super nice weather most of the time. Might be a little hot for my tastes.. Cant really have a lot but if you are retired how much do you want. A pension will set you up big time, for a modest lifestyle. Muskrat gets it. It was pretty hot but everyone wakes up super early to get things done, like at 5 am when its cooler the streets are busy. And then people relax during the heat of the day.Hardly ever rained, or stormy days. Everyday is a beautiful day.

Please excuse my ignorance here.... but why are there not flies all over that market food? Didn't you see Karate Kid? Mr. Miagi taught them to catch them with chopsticks.
I'll take wolves over idiots any day.
