Cover of Suzan Haskins & Dan Prescher: The International Living Guide to Retiring Overseas on a Budget (ePUB)
Achieve your dream of retiring abroad while on a budget

The International Living Guide to Retiring Overseas on a
Budget provides a detailed guide to one of the least-known but
most effective retirement strategies in today’s chaotic economic
environment: retiring abroad. The premise is simple: Enjoy a
happier, healthier, more fulfilling retirement than you could
possibly afford in the U.S. or Canada by finding the right overseas
retirement haven. The book reveals those affordable havens and the
strategies for successfully making the move that could save your
retirement. Aimed at retirees and near-retirees in the U.S. and
Canada, this book’s strategies apply just as well to younger people
and people with families who are looking for ways to improve their
quality of life while at the same time lowering their cost of
living. It includes solutions for the challenges of continuing to
work and earn money abroad, too.

As long-time contributors to the acknowledged leader in the
field, International Living, authors Suzan Haskins and
Dan Prescher have at their disposal more than thirty years of
International Living experience and expertise in the topic. They’ve
been writing about living overseas for more than 12 years and have
created their own broad and deep body of work, including regular
blogs on the topic for Huffington Post and AARP. The authors
include information and strategies that can be successfully applied
by anyone regardless of their political or economic opinions. For
anyone who wants a happier, healthier, more affordable life, The
International Living Guide to Retiring Overseas on a Budget
shows you how to enjoy the romance and excitement of living abroad
on an affordable budget.
