You know I watch my FAIR share of House Hunters International on HGTV and man oh man the houses in Costa Rica are really $$ – I mean they are nice 3 BR houses with sea views – but am talking $500K USD
Belize on the other hand looks heavenly and so much cheaper!
“Thai boys are far nicer, more handsome and hotter than Filipino boys!!! Less mental baggage as well.”
Yes but the she-boys are more convincing so I could get into all sorts of trouble.
biff, glare guard or those ones where only folks staring straight at screen can see content (ie a privacy guard)?
if worst comes to worst when you are a senior, just commit a heinous crime, admit to it, and youll go to jail, but generally senior citizens dont get picked on in prison. free meals, free room, lots of books, television. it could be worse..

So I’m getting glare guards for my screens on the trading floor at the Death Star. We had to give a reason to justify getting them. I said I had sensitive eyes. Didn’t think saying that I needed to spend more time posting on a blog without anyone knowing would go over too well.

don’t listen to all the hysteria. SS isn’t going anywhere anytime soon, definitely not in lifetimes. tho, personally i think that in about 10 years we are going to be a third world war torn country, but that’s not what we are discussing here.

You can collect your SS no matter where you live. Set up an HSBC USD account and have it deposited there and you can draw on it anywhere in the world.

“i plan on being a crank in a state nursing home eating strained peas and carrots and watching america’s next top model season 193 and im okay with that.
I think you need to rein in your expectations and be a bit more realistic.

Who wants to live in a gated community with a bunch of fat old Americans?? That’s not retirement, it’s hell. Imagine the venereal diseases that are being passed around!!!!
dave is correct. there was just a study shown that senior citizens have one of the highest rates of STD’s (other than the obvious kinds of people who normally have STD’s) because they dont like using protection. skanks!!
