Can You Retire Abroad on Social Security | Durham News

from Durham News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Retiring abroad on just your Social Security check? It’s doable—but only in a few places. Panama leads the pack with its easy Pensionado program requiring just $1,000/month in income (your average SS benefit covers it) and affordable living costs. Greece is dreamy but demands $4,000/month—way too high. Costa Rica fits the budget but leaves no room for surprises. Thailand’s cheap, but visa rules are murky. Bottom line: Panama is your best bet if you’re living on Social Security alone. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
