Georgia might be a bit too close for comfort to Putin and his imperial ambitions. But that is a very interesting choice to make, certainly a country rich with culture.
I know a guy who lived there for a while and he said he liked it there. He's interested in Russian culture, and you get it in Georgia, but without Vladimir Putin.
@atlas-pn6jv, yes! Different countries have different requirements to qualify for visas, however there are some very accessible options. Please reach out to us at info@startabroad.com if you'd like more information!
Now that the United States is a formal dictatorship under Trump I think a lot of people are thinking of leaving the us but I also think that a lot of countries are going to say no way you're coming in here. You created your mess you stay there and deal with it
Off-topic: a couple of the sites I read, said that Bermuda was the most expensive place in the world to live. Who knew? Very high tariffs because they only grow carrots and anything with sugar gets hit hard. High tarrifs. Hmm… Now where have I heard that recently?
Well my husband is Costa Rican being there many times it's beautiful we were planning to retire there but I think now is a good time, the only think if you request resident visa you have two stay in the country for 2 years at least. My son is already polishing his Spanish ( he sounds soo gringo).
So i can go to Costa Rica for 180 days with no income requirements, then go to Panama for 180 days... then can i go back to Costa Rica for another 180 days? Any other countries in Central America offer that 180 day deal?
I'm surprised, regarding Costa Rica, that you did not mention the problem of legal squatting. There are lots of scary stories about this happening there. When you buy a house, you must have a Costa Rican co-sign for it. They are the legal owner. This is a measure that Costa Rican has taken to prevent their country from being bought up by richer foreigners. Also, when you are not in your house, and you will probably want to not be there during the majority of the year when it rains a lot every day, Costa Ricans can legally squat in your house, and they may pretend to be caring for your house in your absense, but good luck getting your house back. Buyer beware.
Hi David, you actually don't need to have a Costa Rican co-sign to own a house. You are the legal owner of property here. (Personally, I bought a house last year and recently went through the process myself). But squatters rights are important to be aware of. You need to check on your property regularly in Costa Rica once you're an owner - people have had problems when they haven't visited or checked on their properties for over a year.
We have had 3 properties. Two of them fincas (farms). We had a 24/7 caretaker. You have to have help with a farm! I highly recommend renting at least a year before buying. Make sure. Then go dance the ¡Cumbia!
@@startabroad4592dont we have squatter problems here too??? It's a beautiful country being there many times never had an issue with anyone they are very friendly and polite, my husband and I have being planning for a while to move there,I was there in September it's true when it rains it rains but usually it's in the afternoon and evening end of October is summer season until maybe June after that is rain season, we are going back on January to buy a house and retire.
In many cases, you can access healthcare in your local area regardless of whether you are a citizen or not. You see, in civilized countries, we don't punish people for being sick. We care for them instead.
You buy private insurance. Countries with good healthcare have 2-level systems. Universal care provided by the govt + best care through private insurance. Spain has one of the best national HC systems in the world. Look at life expectancy. Compared to Spain, America is pathetically low. Moving to Spain or Portugal is no-brainer if you have sufficient income. You will also find better HC in Columbia or Ecuador. Romance languages are the easiest to learn.
@@kassistwisted Thank you. Not used to that attitude but it would be nice! Healthcare here in the US has become a disaster and often the stress from the system adds to the ill health.
@@taterkaze9428 Thank you. Spain and/or Portugal sound very inviting. Here we are so used to needing healthcare as a burden. The stress of simply having access to coverage has been unhealthy, and then accessing it when needed is another debacle.
You're recommending Georgia, while it is at considerable risk of political unrest. Georgia is occasionally subject to invasion from Russia. So I have to wonder whether you know anything beyond visa requirements. Seems like maybe we retirees and remote workers should turn to someone other than you for relocation advice.
The USA has basically the worst health care on Earth. Unless you are moving to some country in Africa no one has heard of, the care will be better. The caveat being many places do require you to pay some cash for care, so if you're on US Medicare as a person who will never be able to pay Medicare back (which is a lot of people in the US) then you are better off in the US until Trump cancels Medicare in mid 2025. [Europe has free / almost free care for everyone, so Spain / Portugal are always better]

For the first time in my life, I am now understanding something about WWII: To sell what little you own, travel to a strange land, without knowing anyone, not knowing the language, ...it is just absolutely terrifying. I don't know where to go, and really don't have much money. I'm watching a lot of UA-cam videos on this all of a sudden.
In 2016, people thought that maybe he would do an okay job and maga wasn't so crazy. At this point, people know him and things are crazier than before.
Why? So we can keep paying that asshole our tax money without getting any benefit? no thanks I think I’ll wait until he leaves office…..either on a stretcher or by impeachment.
But you can stay for 180 days no questions asked on a US passport (except "when will you be leaving"). That is about as long as one would want to stay there anyway due to their cold rainy snowy climate. then, you could go to Panama no questions asked during the winter. could be perfect!
Probably won’t be as easy if you don’t speak the language fluently. Or even a good level of fluency might not be enough to fully understand legal documents, etc. written at a formal and professional level when you have to pay bills, get health care, residence, etc. when you move there.
Bucket list is a retirement in Greece. A bit more income is needed for the residency visa, I think. I've got a retirement and coming up on Social Security and maybe a second retirement so that should cover it.
@misteritchy. I'm a Naturalized US Citizen born in Athens. Adopted from an orphanage at 3 months old in 1956. Never been back since. What would be my chances of living there on $2200 a month SS Retirement Benefits? I would have to sell my house here though
I was thinking of Australia (hopefully it’s far enough away) , Germany, or Sweden. I heard they have or had some special fast lane programmes for people who meet certain requirements like ancestry or language speaking ability. Edit: I have great grandparents who were born Swedes.
My grandma was born here but her parents are from Germany. Germany says I need a grandparent from there, though. 😢 If anyone has more insight, PLEASE respond. Ich spreche auch Deutsch.
What if you are young or not retired and looking to leave the U.S. for good? I want to move give up my U.S. citizenship and become a citizen of the country I move to.
Unfortunately, I'm on disability. My understanding is you lose it if you leave the country. However, I think you still get S.S. benefits. So, I have to wait a few years for it to change over. But, been thinking about leaving long before the election, and even before I was disabled. have investments too. But they do not yet draw enough dividends to live without my disability.
SCHD (Schwab index fund) pays a lot in dividends and keeps increasing it... I'm looking at getting that plus the ~4% draw down from it and it's a game changer. There are a few great ones but I keep moving $ into SCHD because it's better. You could plan on 7% of the balance contributing to your retirement instead of just 3-4%. It really makes the total account balance needed much smaller.
I'm surprised Mexico isn't mentioned, there are many different levels of visas (with less monetary requirements than many on the list above) but you can easily come for 6 months and obviously one of the easiest countries to relocate to due to the proximity to the US.
Tried for the NLV in Spain using an immigrant lawyer there. $5000 later, I gave up. The government gave no help to me or the lawyer, changing requirements constantly and just saying "We don't explain the requirements, it's all on the website", and it wasn't. And no, I had to be in the US to apply.
I'm sorry, that sounds like a really frustrating process. If you end up deciding to try again in the future, we're happy to help. For the NLV you have to apply in your current country of residency. It's for the digital nomad visa that you can apply from inside Spain (and it's advantageous to do so).

More important is what you get for the taxes you pay. In the US, it tends to be a huge and expensive military. In most civilized countries, taxes pay for health care.
@@startabroad4592And pets? Do the countries allow dogs and cats? I recall years ago that Australia had a fairly long quarantine period for dogs. I didn't check into cats then and haven't rechecked about dogs. Not sure those things would've changed, but it has been 20+ years.

@ryanb7186 And yes, this also concerns me. The parallels are scary Those who don't learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. This is, undoubtedly, one reason why Trump loves the uneducated.

I'm pretty sure 90% of Harris voters know that and 90% of Trump voters don't. Hell, the GOP literally put a picture of Georgia (the country) on a website for Georgia (the state)
The ones who didn't vote for tRump do.
Yeah, Trump voters 😂
Talk about the taxes
Great thought! We can publish a video on this soon - thanks for the suggestion.
More important is what you get for the taxes you pay. In the US, it tends to be a huge and expensive military. In most civilized countries, taxes pay for health care.
@@startabroad4592And pets? Do the countries allow dogs and cats? I recall years ago that Australia had a fairly long quarantine period for dogs. I didn't check into cats then and haven't rechecked about dogs. Not sure those things would've changed, but it has been 20+ years.
Taxes?
All countries have taxes
Yup, and you might need to pay both local *and* US taxes.
Yep jumping from the burning ship
Que viva Espana!
This reminds me of all the Australians enquiring about moving to New Zealand after Tony-bloody-Abbott got elected as our Prime Minister! (A great victory for collective ignorance.)
Costa Rica is VERY expensive.
WHY would I want to leave? I don't jump the proverbial ship when waters get choppy. I don't say that the hole is on your side of the boat and head for the nearest island. I do what I can to stay with it and move forward. Been through hard times before and am still here.
Wow a rational response. I bet less that 5% of these people actually move to another country. Those that do may be in for some unpleasant surprises.
Would you have left Germany when the Nazi's gained power and you weren't Aryan?
Spain. Where even tourists are getting sprayed with water and heckled by the natives.
Well thank God I'm bilingual in Spanish lol
And who is willing to take retirees with health issues? No one!
And all there countries have zero Trumps!!!
Don't even think about it....just a warning, Americans will be greeted with anything but warmth, in fact your greeting will positively frigid. You're really not at all popular or wanted in Europe right now
Not helpful. I have pets i need to take with me.
All smart people leaving the US is probably the best idea ever...
But as we could see lately, there ain't many of them 🤣
No, thanks!!! I'd rather be somewhere in Europe!!!
new zealand
I need to leave this shat show
But my wife said..
It's got to be warm it's got to be wet and it's got to be hard.
Seems like we're going to the Gulf of Mexico
Albania is beautiful, but I'd be concerned about earthquakes and corruption. Maybe I'm being silly.... but I think of these things
If you have any trouble getting into the UK, simply arrive at Dover on an inflatable boat. Dump all your ID/passport, etc and you'll get free accommodation, phone,
and travel.
Seriously? If you all voted for TRUMP, you should stay there
Yes, that could happen now that many Americans will leave the USA to escape the Trump chaos. The country will miss out on a lot of good workers, but that's what they wanted.
Please, please, will all of the rich cowards LEAVE!
I would like to hear about Where Americans can get dual citizenship in case it turns into Gilead from the Handmaid's tale. I don't want to be the mother who cannot get into Canada because I have a bad visa. I want Canada to make it possible to get a just in case emergency visa. I am scared especially with all the militant fundamentalist Christians Trump is going to put in charge who believe we should be a theocracy.
It was cringe when Republicans did it. Still cringe when Democrats talk about leaving.
Stand up for your home.
Take your money and run don’t pay for those rednecks on welfare down south that voted for tRump.
What’s cringe is cheating. If you seriously think this was a fair election. You’re clearly not paying attention.
Read up on 1930s Germany. One of my grandmothers lived through it. It was not pretty.
@ryanb7186 And yes, this also concerns me. The parallels are scary Those who don't learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. This is, undoubtedly, one reason why Trump loves the uneducated.
Now you can all stay now, everything should be back to normal soon with the wokies out.
Trump will make America a hellhole for everyone who is not a billionaire. I hope you remember this comment in four years, and I hope you never forgive yourself for selling America to the oligarchs.
you are a fool. You will pay the price.
Use of "woke" as a pejorative = low IQ.
WTF is a wokie? Must be some new kinda racist, bigot, fascist rapist word I'm not familiar with.
Hahahaha
Have lived in Japan since '03, and it's brilliant. Great people, national healthcare system.
It was largely due to too many drives into DC, seeing protests in Lafayette Square against a (potential, at that time) Iraq war, with *zero* news coverage. Not the only reason, but one of them.
