EDITORIAL REVIEW

Barry Golson knows all about retiring abroad -- he and his wife, Thia, have lived in six different countries. Now they choose expatriate-friendly locales around the world for their low cost and their high quality of living and explain how to investigate and settle in each country with minimum hassle and maximum pleasure.

Taking you step-by-step through the process of researching, testing, and finally living abroad, the Golsons' practical how-to guide covers all the major issues, including health care, finances, real estate, taxes, and immigration. Each location is profiled by an expatriate writer who has made that country his or her home and who knows how to answer all the questions about living richly and economically in some of the world's most beautiful places.

USER REVIEWS

informative book, local writers

The only chapter I've read thus far was the one on Nicaragua. It was great. The whole book uses local writers which is a big plus. The advice seemed practical and sensible.

Unquestionably the most thorough and informative book I have found on retirement considerations outside of the USA

My husband saw this book promoted in Wall Street Journal and thought i might enjoy reading it, (though we are far from retirement age), since some friends and i are contemplating purchasing a ranch and having locals operate it. The book gives good info about purchasing a home or other non-commercial property as well as bringing out ideas to think through before moving to another country.

Informative and accurate

From my experience book seems pretty accurate in its assessments of various places. Little too much emphasis on Europe and too little on South East Asia.

I found the book useful and candid. I don't agree with a previous reader about the "unhappy" expatriates quotes. To me the expats seemed overwhelmingly satisfied with their move abroad, but many were honest enough to point out the foibles--something you don't find in other rah-rah retirement books. Was it too "political"? Some of the people who move abroad are probably going to have more beefs with the U.S. government than those that stay on their home ground. Anyway, I enjoyed it, as I did his earlier "Gringos in Paradise," and was happy to see the author's friendly humor in the new book as well.
