How can a queer person live in retirement that’s affordable and unabashedly LGBTQ-friendly? Where can one find affordable LGBT retirement cities?
Most gay-friendly cities in the US are expensive and will quickly eat up your retirement dollars, but there are places beyond our borders where you can spread your savings further and feel comfortable, safe and welcome.
Jim and Luis are a gay couple who retired early and spent the last two years living mostly outside the US in Portugal, Mexico and Spain.
On this episode of Queer Money®, Jim and Luis join us to share their slow travel experiences, explaining how they decide where to go and what differentiates their nomadic lifestyle from being on vacation.
Jim and Luis discuss the preparations they made to retire early, offering insight on why they got rid of all their debt before they quit their jobs and how they build a monthly budget around their real estate investment income.
Listen in for Jim and Luis’ advice on avoiding the peer pressure to overspend and learn how to create a plan to gain financial independence and retire somewhere that’s both LGBTQ-friendly and fits your budget!
