Anyone thinking about retiring abroad?
If so where?
I've been looking myself and really can't find anything that's reasonable on price.
Anyone else out there as any different views?
I think crabbyob's way is best because he hasn't cut his ties with the UK.
His way you still qualify for NHS treatment & still get the State pension increases.
I know a couple who sold their house, bought a big static caravan that they lived in during the UK summer & went abroad during the UK winter.
Also they didn't have the worry of a house standing empty in the UK.
Come the day that they needed to return to the UK permanently, they intended to rent a house.
P.S. I hope you get something suitable sorted out.
