Retirees looking to stretch their pensions might consider spending their golden years in Ecuador, Panama or Mexico, where cost of living is low and the weather is warm, according to a new index。 International Living Magazine rated the three Latin American countries the top destinations in its Retirement Index 2017, followed by Malaysia, Colombia, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Spain, Thailand and Honduras。 "The proposition is that you can live better for less, and not sacrifice anything, if at all, in quality of life and still live on half or less of what your cost of living would be in the United States or Canada," said Dan Prescher, special projects editor for International Living。 "As the world economic situation deteriorates that's becoming more important," he added in an interview。 |
