A short clip from Francisco explaining what it is that attracted him, as an American, to move to Guatemala. He lived in Guatemala City from most of last year.
I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.
I feel your pain mate, as a fellow retiree, I’d suggest you look into passive index fund investing and learn some more. For me, I had my share of ups and downs when I first started looking for a consistent passive income so I hired an expert advisor for aid, and following her advice, I poured $30k in value stocks and digital assets, Up to 200k so far and pretty sure I'm ready for whatever comes...
@@Margerat-x The crazy part is that those advisors are probably outperforming the market and raising good returns but some are charging fees over fees that drain your portfolio. Is this the case with yours too?
I will retired there in 3 years I can't wait to be there I just love the weather even if I want to go to the beach is only one hour tropical weather and the water is warm.
Yes, in 2019 I took a trip with Intrepid that started in Antigua, then went to Rio Dulce and Tikal before heading into Belize and Mexico. Arrived at night, so I was amazed the next morning when I went up to the restaurant on the hotel roof and saw a volcano belching smoke not too far away! I did a volcano hike on Pacaya, organized by Ox Expeditions in Antigua. Beautiful country 🙂
I just spent 4 weeks in Guatemala 🇬🇹 I was nervous for a while but never had any problems, I spent 4 weeks studying Spanish in Antigua! Great experience
Its funny you mention the volcano throwing smoke, I used to work for this big American Corp in Zone 10 and we use to get visited by people from the States all the time, one time this guy calls me in the middle of the night all freaked out he was like man I just saw this huge volcano erupting through my hotel's window, what is happening? I was laughing so hard, I was like chill man this is normal don't worry its just a small eruption it wont reach your room I think is too high. (it was during a time that it was very active and you could see lava flowing without the need of binoculars).
I am moving there in a couple of weeks. So excited! Could you (or have you) make/made a video on buildings to buy a condo in? Because I’ve been looking like crazy, and it seems I’ll have to couch it up with a friend and look at places once I’m there.
