There are a few EU countries, Italy and France come mind, that offer very affordable health insurance options even for non-citizens. Considering that as well since living in the countryside isn't too expensive.
Do you have any regrets about retiring early? How did you determine the target level of finances?
My job was 24/7/365 as we had as many as 11 restaurants and many near death experiences financially, so, no, I don't miss it one bit.
Got lucky and sold on an upswing in the business in June 2008 just before the crash and put the money into three rentals (when that market was half what it is now).
Best investment ever for us as we found renters that we knew.
The first few years we were paying $16k/year on Health Insurance before ObamaCare, today for a couple it is $27k.
But ObamaCare cut that down to something like $1000/month now IIRC.
My wife does all the finances! :laughing
