My wife and I are in our mid 60’s and retired. We are horrified about possibility of the USA electing a fascist dictator in 2024 and are looking for resources who can coach us in how to relocate and move enough of our money to live on should the USA go in that direction.

We’re considering Panama and Costa Rica. Portugal looks really nice but is seems the favorable tax status is being recinderd.

Any advice regarding resources would be a good start for us. We will probably be taking a trip or 2 to scout things out in the spring.

    Don’t listen to these naysayers on here. If you want to go, go. I’m in pretty much the same boat, but it doesn’t even matter who wins the next election, I’m just sick of the relentless toxicity and gaslighting of the American right wing. The USA very clearly has a mental illness epidemic, and it’s not going to get better anytime soon. Time to explore new horizons, new experiences, and a more balanced life. I definitely recommend traveling to your preferred places a couple of times, at least once on a longer trip beyond a “vacation” to gey the idea of what daily life looks like. But yeah, if i were you, i would plan a timeline that works around making the best choice for you and NOT based on yhe political calendar in the USA (ie, dont try to move before the election, but rather when youve done the due diligence on where youll be the happiest). Good luck and keep posting here on your journey, it may help others in the same or similar position!
