    The one group of Black Americans moving to Africa permanently are senior citizens. With $1,000 in social security only, their quality of life improves significantly. For the ones that have a combined retirement of $2,000, they are living very well. Certain countries like Kenya have an advanced credit system, sometimes even the citizens aren't aware of this. Paying rent annually is ridiculous, 2 month's deposit will suffice in most countries. Good video!!!

And while Africa is the richest continent ask yourself, who benefits the most from its resources as far as wealth?

      The cost of living in Ghana is higher than new arrivals may expect. Ghana's capital city, Accra, ranked as the 146th most expensive expat destination out of the 227 cities analysed in the 2022 Mercer Cost of Living Survey. Accommodation in Ghana is particularly expensive and will take up most of an expat's budget.

I got the typhoid, Hep A, Hep B, meningitis, tetanus, and polio. Total cost was about $1,100.00. Ridiculous I know. The day I got the shot I felt tired and had a headache for about a day. After that I felt fine and was ready for my trip. My trip went well. The doctor also gave me malaria pills that I had to take during my stay. I toke one every day. Those mosquitos in Ghana do not play. Those pills may have stopped me from getting malaria and or yellow fever because I got bit up a whole lot. Over all I feel fine. I'm planning my return soon..
