I am in my early 60s and retired at 53. Lots of people gave me pushback because they had difficulty grasping the concept of not working if you don’t have to. I looked at my life as stages. I earned everything I have now through a lot of hard work, but I owe it to myself to “stop and smell the roses” in my final stage of life. In my case I left the country after I retired and live in Latin America. It allowed me to get away from all the negative things happening in America while appreciating my new environment. I have yet to meet anyone who regrets retirement.

Off subject, Briggs, one of the things that makes your channel so popular is because you are a genuine person and you are entertaining. No AI EVER. Thanks. Another good presentation. Have a great weekend.

These reviews do not address crime rates. I recently returned from Jamaica where I spent time with the locals outside the big resorts. There was at least one security guard at the door of every shop I visited. Most housing areas were gated, also with security. Everyone keeps a large dog. When visiting, the guard(s) would call the person you came to visit and check how many guests they expected - in case you have been carjacked and the other people in the care were holding a gun on you. Also, they are big on paving roads in Jamaica...once, and never again. Traffic was high speed and chaotic. All the cars I saw, including police cars, were covered in small dents and scratches. Parking was equally chaotic. Menus in the restaurants for locals (outside the big resorts) had very limited menus. Once you got past the jerk chicken (very good) you had fried chicken (good) and then stewed chicken, stewed oxtail (lots of bones, and the only beef offered), curries goat (lots of bones), turkey necks...no salads or desserts offered. And those meals cost between $20 and $30 dollars. Unless you want to buy a million dollar property in a gated community on the beach (and stay there), this is NOT an attractive place for retirement.

All Retirees must have Healthcare. Could you make a Part 2 for this video explaining the Healthcare systems for these countries.

I'm a Portland escapee living in the Philippines for the past 16 years. Aussie friends living here tried Portugal for a few years. They came back to the Philippines where the English capabilities are much higher making life easier.

I can definitely verify the Philippines is a very affordable place to live and retire to. My Filipina wife and I own a small farm here. We grow our food, provide a bit to the market in town, and enjoy a relaxed lifestyle. Our monthly expenses are less than $500/month (USD). We live in a bit more rural area, but have easy access to modern amenities.

I lived in Singapore for 3 years. Absolutely loved it there. Yes, they do speak English there, with a mix of "Sing'lish", lah. Basically some Mandarin or Cantonese periodically thrown in with the English. It was also a British colony for a while, which helps contribute to it being an English speaking country. Don't expect to own a car, no matter what part of Singapore you live. Other than housing and owning a car, everything else is surprisingly affordable. The food is amazing, and very inexpensive.

Briggs is the best for informational videos such as this one. Accept no AI substitutes.

Malta. I visited several years ago. They also speak English.

Great video Briggs. Don't let the AI voice channels wear you down. YouTube will eventually nerf them.

We lived in central Sweden in 2006, and it was amazing. Everyone spoke English (better than we did). The costs were relatively reasonable. The most amazing part, though, were the people. Everyone was so nice, and if we lacked for anything, they were happy to find it for us. There was virtually no crime. Unfortunately, I have heard that things have changed quite a bit in the last decade.

Great content as always. Would be good to include info on healthcare quality and crime data for these countries.

One place you did not mention and I find to be very English-friendly is Malta. Malta belonged to the UK for many years, so almost everyone has a working knowledge of English and it is a fairly inexpensive place to live. It also is one of the easiest countries to get EU citizenship and allows dual citizenship.

Excellent vid! I have family in Cyprus and am familiar with the island. If there was ever a reason to visit, the food is absolutely amazing. And it's location has it very close to a lot of interesting countries.

Hope all are well

One country that surprised me was Thailand. Maybe it's because the US Navy had a strong presence there or because of their education system, but I was very surprised at how many people there speak English. Plus, it is also very inexpensive to live there, if you can stand the tropical heat and humidity.

I grew up in a military family. This made me develop the ability to make and hold friends fast. Because you could get somewhere and in a couple of years it was onto the next duty station. So I have been to a lot of countries overseas. One of the things that will always make you popular to the locals, is asking questions about their country. Everyone likes to talk about where they live. The other secret is to make conversation and not wait until conversation is made.

Great vid.
I've lived in the UAE for over 19 years now, wouldn't change it, never known such a safe place, leave your laptop or phone on your table while you go to the rest room in a coffee shop or bar, come back 5 minutes later and it's still there. Healthcare is brilliant - insurance based.
Most important thing is though, the UAE is not just the madness that is Dubai, I live an hour north in the mountains and it's so laid back, quiet and cheap. Pretty much everyone speaks English, and the cost for a single guy for a month all in, including rent, food and beer from $1, 500.
Ok it gets a bit warm in the summer but you do get used to it. No real tax to speak of other than 5% VAT (sales tax).
I love Portugal too though, that would be European home of choice and I'm English!

I was in Singapore back in the early nineties while in the Navy. It's a beautiful country and the people were pretty nice. I couldn't take the heat and oppressive humidity tho! 🥵
