Feb. 24, 2026 Dear International Living Postcards Reader, |
|
|
When you take me up on this special offer before midnight tonight, I'll send you a copy of How to Retire Well on a $200,000 Nest Egg (and more) at no charge. Details here. A great many of the world's best-value retirement locales are in places you'd never expect. Places most people couldn't find on a map. |

They are safe, welcoming, beautiful spots where your dollars really stretch. Caviar living on a burger budget. And just because they're undervalued and overlooked doesn't mean they're at the back of beyond. These are well-located communities where you can find like-minded friends and can settle into a comfortable life. Consider... |
- In the City of Parks, you can enjoy all the cosmopolitan perks that come with big-city living—cinemas, theaters, sophisticated restaurants, great shopping, museums—and combine that with green surrounds ideal if you're outdoorsy. There's easy access to hiking, biking, and thermal hot springs. Lots of bike lanes and walking paths. It's a place with colonial charm, modern conveniences, and a cost of living that'll have you thinking you've traveled back to the 1950's.
- If warm, sunny weather year-round is on your retirement wish list—and you'd like to see the shoreline when you sip your morning coffee—then you might consider one Portuguese town I know along the Algarve coast where you can enjoy a genteel European lifestyle for less.
- In another spot you should know about—where D.H. Lawrence penned his book, The Plumed Serpent—thousands of retirees have already settled. Here you might want a sweater some evenings—but it's spring-like year-round, rarely too hot or too cold. And no snow shovel needed. Ever. Plus there's lots to do. You could take a boat out on the lake, play tennis, walk in the park, or just relax with a book on your patio.

Jet-Set Living for Less than You'd Pay to Stay Home |
In the US today, we're typically told to have about $1.4 million saved. But how many people can realistically do that? Relatively few. So we start to reign in our expectations for what life in retirement will be like... But when you look beyond our borders, you can watch your options expand. Already hundreds of thousands of people just like you are taking advantage of the low-cost, high-reward lifestyles in the places I'd like to show you, here. These folks don't have millions in the bank... yet they travel when they feel like it, even taking extended international trips a few times a year. They have the luxury of time to enjoy their hobbies, golf, fish, learn a new language, write a novel... In their world, there isn't any penny pinching. You could easily join the folks in that world and enjoy the same kinds of comforts. I'd like to show you exactly how you can do it in these 17 safe, sunny, and scenic escapes all around the world. I'm talking about places where you could upgrade to a jet-set life... Where you could, for instance, live at the beach—enjoy the sun, relax, spend your days the way you like—and do it for a small fraction of what it would cost you at home. Caviar living on a burger budget. |
