Essentially you want to be able to have almost everything that you have here. Hawaii would be perfect but it's way too expensive...NZ seems too far incase one decides to invite friends, come back to the US once a month or so.
where would you go? Who knows, maybe in 5 years I'll come back here, read this and pack my bags :).
Right now I have to worry about paying for my school...;)
still reading...just haven't felt like I needed to comment :)
Money. Unless someone somewhere is giving land, game and trees away for free (so you can hunt your own food and use the trees to build your own shelter), you're pretty much tied to the unfortunate need of money to simply live these days.
If I could travel back in time to retire I'd like to go back to the times before Europeans came to North America.
My earlier post about retiring to Ireland would work only if I had money. That just ain't so.
True, but you could stayy in the US and need $75K a year to live ok (in certain areas) or move to another country or place, buy a decent house and live nicely on $10K or so.
business aside. way aside. picture black sand beaches, mistic jungle, monkeys, volcanos, and simple beautiful people.
that said,italy, hands down.
wait...i haven't seen 99% of the world yet.
if i were to retire.....
i hope i get to that point.
i hope that i have the chance to choose.
i hope that when i do, i will know more than i do now.
ahh, the reasons we work so hard.
ahh, the future.
