What is the best English speaking country to retire to?
I have a very small retirement income of $1,500 per month. I do have savings of around $150,000. What is the best english speaking country to retire to?
Panama or Costa Rica. Even though Costa Rica isn't officially English speaking, there are so many American retirees there and most people speak English.
Should Ted Kennedy Retire so we can get a person in that can actaully vote?

Sri Lanka (Ceylon) It is very cheap. The civil war is settling now. You can settle in the South (This part has not been affected by Civil War).
It is quite scenic there and Sri lankans are quite literate, and Medical Care there is overall good.

I lived there for 4 years.

Phillipines. No joke, with your income you could hire a cook, pay medical bills and live in a very comfy place.

I highly recommend that you look into Brazil. My uncle move there for his retirement.

Philippines..you can live there as a rich person..your monthly income is equivalent to almost 75,000 php..btw, i’m a filipino student..my mother’s income is less than half that amount and i think we live over the poverty line..lol(middle-class?i guess so..)
compared to other countries, basic needs are cheap(food, clothes, hous rentals) and many filipinos can understand english(and we are friendly too!:))..:):)
i hope i helped you..smile

For my concern Philippines is one of the best Country in Asia who speak good and easy to understand but no way to India,I travelled India for two times it is a good place to travel but not to agree that they are the best in Asia, I still say Philippines.

who ever wrote that nonsense about Costa Rica.
It is a Spanish country and there are not a lot of English speakers.
The retirees are spread all over the country.
And there are a lot of thieves in the country.
Many retirees lose their savings from the women there, so beware.
