Retirees who struggle to meet their basic needs are the ones who could not accumulate enough money during their active years to meet their needs. Retirement choices determine a lot of things. My parents both spent same number of years in the civil service, but my mom was investing through a wealth manager, and my dad through the 401k.

This is true. I'm in my mid 50's now. My wife and I were following this same trajectory. Last two years, I pulled out my money and invested with her wealth manager. Not catching up with her profits over the years, but at least I earn more. I'm making money even before retiring, and my retirement fund has grown way more than it would have with just the 401(k). Haha.

Its unfortunate most people don't have such information. I don't really blame people who panic. Lack of information can be a big hurdle. I've been making more than $287k passively by just investing through an advisor, and I don't have to do much work. Doesn't matter if the economy is misbehaving; great wealth managers will always make returns.

I have been lucky having had 2 good union careers, so I have a couple of pensions on top of SS. I always knew I'd retire at 62 somewhere in Southeast Asia (I picked Chiang Mai, Thailand), having fallen in love with it when in the Navy. First off, if I worked to 65 or 67, I'd never get those years back. And no one on their deathbed ever said, "Damn it, I wish I'd spent more time at work!" Also, I have a good paying job. There is a man or woman with a family out there that needs the job more than I do. Well, today in my 62nd birthday, and my last day at work is Monday. Already have a one-way ticket to Chiang Mai for July 1st!

@briandumont7272 ,., Congratulations on choosing Chiang Mai, My mom lives there right now. By the way, when I went to Thailand a fews years back, I had a 1 way ticket leaving Los Angeles airport, while checking in, the airline ask for my return ticket or Onward ticket leaving Thailand. I didn't have it, but I convince them that since I was born in Thailand (Place of birth say Thailand on my U.S passport), they made me sign a paper that say the airline is not responsible if Thailand immigration doesn't let me enter the Kingdom for not having a return or onward ticket. So I suggest you book a flight out of Thailand around 30 days or less on your date of arrival, then cancel it after you are let into Thailand. By the way, I'm retired US Navy BMC (24 Years).

Meaning my assets in retirement were actually growing because I barely needed to take out. I only "work" now on projects that interest me, and it's hardly for money, I'm set there. Mostly boredom.

My father bought me a house in Youngstown for 30k. I lived there 5 years before returning to Atlanta.

You are a smart and admirable guy. For an older guy (I too am 60) who lost a lot financially, you sure recovered well and made some great life choices. I worked for decades in IT and it had turned me into a stressed out monster that just couldn't walk away out of obligation to my family. Well, then my wife passed away unexpectedly at 52 and I just couldn't even force myself to it more than another year and a half. It's amazing how your mental and physical life can change for the better when you remove yourself from the ruthless treadmill. All the best to you sir and continued good health!

I didn’t plan for anything, somehow I retired at 62, with close to 6k in pensions a month, $$$ in the bank, zero debt, VA health insurance at no cost covers 100%, divorced after 20 year marriage.. I was irresponsible with money and savings, couple things saved my butt, I bought a house and paid it off, had a good paying job the last 20 years. My military service. At 60 my wife kicked me out, she took control of both homes, all my savings, everything she planned it in advance and played me like a fiddle, she is 20 years younger and played the long game. I busted my butt and she became a Dr. Once money started rolling in, I was not needed anymore. Luckily my lawyer got me half of the proceeds from the sale of one of the homes. Things were really rough for me for a while. Now the dust has settled, hopefully I can retire somewhere in Asia, and not get taken for a ride , like great majority of expats.

Another excellent video, Paul. Thanks. The Association of Actuaries advise that at what age, and where we retire, depend on how much we have saved, our monthly social security checks. and our personal needs. Rule-of-thumb: a couple needs between USD $ 1,500 (rural) to $ 2,700 (city) a month to retire comfortably in the Philippines . Add 5% to inflation annually and $ 200,000 if we get a heart attack or stroke, or break the spine. Getting social security at age 62 means that we will get 30% less than what we will get at 67. Philippines, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam are very pleasant places to retire as an expat, but not when we get sick with no family or community support.

Paul, we lost our Azzs under Bush Jr.'s regime. I lost my job and, at 55, could not find work. So we made a plan: We sold our house just as the housing bubble popped. With that, we financed our retirement in the Philippines until 62. We still have a reserve thank goodness, and now live on 2/3 of our SS. I am 70, and my wife is 72. All I can say is that pulling the plug then was the right decision, and collecting at 62 was the right thing to do. You did the right thing.

Then off to my destination of the Philippines to retire with my half my age GF. I never took any pharmaceutical products in my life because my mom was anti-big-Pharma so our family learned to self medicate with nature’s remedies. This time next year I hope to be with my new life in the Philippines. Have a great day.

Meaning safety+trust+community/love, health bodily and spiritual and food to eat. 29:44 so before this video I watched a video on the Every Man Has a Story channel where you took an interview 2 years ago.

Thank you for sharing your insight on early retirement especially Social Security. I retired in 2018 at 55 using my company 75 rule which is age (55)plus working years and so I left with a full pension and but was offered the worst medical insurance and that would have cost my wife and I $940 a month. I love to travel and our daughter is all grown up living on her own. I could have stayed in my home even with my pension, and I have a healthy brokerage and IRA account. But I decided to sell my home, car and almost everything else, but put some of my belongings in a small storage unit. I left the USA 6 years ago living and traveling to many different countries. Dental and Medical is very affordable outside the USA. In May I will be putting in for my Social Security at 62 after running the numbers my break even point is at 74 years old. We are going to Cebu in July 2024 for 6 to 8 months as our home base. Update I did my Social Security online with no issues and approved 2 days later.

I too had to decide when to start my Social Security. Everyone wonders how long they will live. I retired at age 59. I had a small pension from 22 years working for a factory that had closed. I took the big penalty and started collecting that paltry $366 per month. I then decide to wait as long as possible for my Social Security. I bought a condo from a chunk of my savings so I paid no rent. To make a long story short, I was able to wait until I was 66 years old and entitled to the higher rate. I did keep my nest egg and was able to live here comfortably in Thailand doing everything I wanted to do using that small pension and a bit of my expendable savings. I am now 79 years old so I made the right decision. I'm really happy I waited to start Social Security. I have a very comfortable surplus every month from Social Security and the small pension. If I had stared Social Security earlier, I would likely still have been OK financially but it feels good to have plenty of extra money because I waited.

Hi @garyaltenburger6667 Thanks for sharing your experience! It's great that you were able to wait until you were 66 years old to start collecting Social Security, as it resulted in a higher monthly payment. It's important to carefully consider when to start receiving Social Security benefits, as it can have a significant impact on one's retirement income. I'm glad that you were able to live comfortably in Thailand using your small pension and some of your savings. And congratulations on reaching the age of 79! 🎉
