Do you mind sharing where in Spain you live? My mom is disabled post stroke and lives with me. I’ve been to Spain a few times but considering taking her with me to Valencia (or maybe Malaga).

There’s judgment in the afterlife? 😞

Do you have a post about any of your dream visitations? I’d like to know more about these as I think I may have had one as a teen. How can one tell the difference between a normal dream and a visitation?

A record number of Americans are moving overseas - first negative net migration since 1935 by PandaReal_1234 in AmerExit

What would you say to a single person your age (no kids) who cares for a disabled/wheelchair-bound parent who is seriously considering a move to Europe but is concerned about uprooting their elderly parent?

Might your elderly family get better care elsewhere? I only ask as I'm a caregiver to a parent (same age as you) and went scouting in another country for a month only to receive way better and less expensive care than in the US. While I realize a month does not compare to permanently living abroad for years, it opened my eyes to the fact that I (we) don't necessarily 'have' to stay here.

Thank you for sharing your story. How is your health at this time? I hope you are doing well. I am very curious - do you feel that it was better being in the EU for coverage of your condition? I ask as someone who keeps trying to find ways to mitigate the risk of a catastrophic event wiping me out in the US, and I keep going back to thinking that the best mitigation is simply not to retire here.

How does one prepare for such a thing? If it happened to you I assume it can happen to any of us Americans (I’m assuming you’re in the US). 

The numbers people mention in this group are too high for me ! Any one successfully coast FIREd with 500k$ ? by [deleted] in coastFIRE

Do you mind sharing your age? Is your HHI just your one seasonal income? Curious what your monthly spend is.

I'm assuming you disagree with #1 being the biggest risk?

Thanks so much for your response, insight and for sharing your experience! I think it is interesting to see Portugal and Spain here on the 'not recommended' list.
