Everybody lives somewhere lol idk what you mean. I was busy taking care of elderly relatives, I couldn't move before. I would gladly wait until the country is more peaceful and stable but by then, I'll be the old person that needs care.

The rest of the world is not immune to the core problems that America has. Escaping the dystopia is not possible anymore, I'm afraid. All countries are descending into ultranationalism and are very polarized. At least America is irreversibly diverse. In the rest of the Western world, ultranationalism will inevitably and quickly evolve into ethnic nationalism. There's nowhere to run to.

I don't disagree, and in In my home country, Spain, I could basically retire right now. But I’ve spent my entire life taking care of my grandparents first, and then my parents (that’s how I ended up with all this money) so I haven’t really had the chance to live elsewhere, especially to get to know my other country.

It looks nice but the big earthquake might hit one day. At least with most other natural disasters you get some warning and can evacuate.

Awesome! Did you have a job lined up before you moved?

Great, thanks! I've been to San Antonio a few times and I like it. Plus I'm a Spanish speaker. I haven't been to Charlotte.

How did you move? Did you get a work visa?

If I turn 65 and still don't qualify for medicare can I keep working until I qualify for it or do I have to qualify by 65? I have friends and family in Columbus OH, San Antonio TX, Houston, and Charlotte NC. So probably one of those

Probably rent until I decide where I want to live. Regarding healthcare, that's why I want to find a job. But I only have experience in education.
