I am American that retired early and am now living in Cebu, Philippines,
I certainly didn't retire rich though and money was in short supply. So, I moved to the Philippines.
Being a survivor, one that turns what could be a bad time into something of an opportunity, I ran away from home and I didn't stop until I got to the Philippines.
It was a great decision for me. It isn't for everyone. If you're set in your ways and don't like change it may not be right for you.
But if you like beautiful women that don't care much about how you look and will treat you better than you've ever been treated before, you might just be able to learn to accept some change. I know it made it easy for me.
It is also much cheaper to live in the Philippines. That means, you can visit many wonderful beaches, resorts, mountains, waterfalls and have the time of your life. I know, because I'm living the dream.
