Some
retire persons in developed countries try to find “suitable”
places for their retirements.
The
places might be in Asian countries, European nations and in Latin
American countries.
Word
of suitable refers to the “cheapest” or affordable nations. At
least, 2 Indexes should be Considered to Find Retirement Countries:
-
cost of living index
Cost
of living index is a tool to compare cost between one location to
other locations. In this case, USA (New
York) as
a standard. It is included the cost of:
-
one gallon of milk
-
gas (transportation)
-
food
-
clothing
-
utilities
-
groceries
-
other cost of goods and services that relate to every day life.
Sample
of Local food
The
highest score for cost of living index is 100. A particular place or
country might be have the higher or lower than 100, the meanings are
following:
1)
If index score higher than 100, let’s say 115:
2)
If index score lower than 100, let’s say 85:
-
the meaning that the place or country has the lower or cheaper cost
of living. 15% cheaper.
What
is local purchasing power index?
What
countries to be included as cheaper countries and suitable for
retirement?
We
will discuss in the following post.

Costa Rica seems to be a popular place for retirement. I'm not sure I'd want to change countries, though.

What is local purchasing power index?
While cost of living is one thing to consider, I would also look at availability of health care. I remember a hospital in Vietnam. Not many Americans would want to be there, even though I find Vietnam a wonderful country and it's health care would be better than Cambodia
ReplyDeleteYes, health care is one of important factors to settle in a particular place...
