Baby Boomers - Moving Offshore

Posted by: Larry Schlesser in MyBlog

Larry Schlesser

My last Blog encouraged any and all "Baby Boomers" out there to investigate the possibility of retiring abroad. Fact of the matter is it may or may not be for you.

Some people never move past their own neighborhoods their entire lives.  The alway wish to be in their "comfort zones".  That is fine for some, not so for others. There thenis the group that do what many of their parents did, that being make it as far as Florida or Arizona each winter. That also is fine, for them.

For me and millions of others there are desires, and needs, to push the envelope a bit further.  Financially there can be large advantages.  I think the greatest majority desire adventure. For some that may be challenging the expressway to get to the nearest music festival. For others it may mean finding another country that offers "new.  By "new" I mean "NEW".  New climate, new culture, new foods, new adventure,......."NEW".  Most have spent 40 years + doing what they were supposed to do. Plenty of ups and downs and challenges. Raising children, caring for elderly parents, and driving down the road of life with all it's curves, bumps and accidents.

The internet is an amazing source of information. Most have anywhere from a year to several before you are scheduled in your own mind to retire.  Investigate the possibilities the world has to offer.

Now it is time for you! Life is short, live it!

Boomers Abroad

BoomersAbroad.com was born in direct response to hundreds of conversations with baby boomers from the USA and Canada who were seeking a new life, and to better understand how they might live abroad, travel abroad, relocate abroad, retire abroad and/or invest abroad. Leading industry experts and many of those who have journeyed ahead will share their personal experiences and knowledge in a great variety of areas.

Boomers Living Abroad

The number of Americans and Canadians living abroad, by today's count approximately 7 million (according to The Washington Post), is twice the population of Chicago and greater than that of 33 U.S. States. A number that has grown steadily over the past decade, and it is expected to more than double within ten years. In the next 20 years, 100 million baby boomers, from the USA and Canada, are going to retire. Five million baby boomers turn age 60 each year, Ten Thousand per day, Eight per minute, and scores of them are purchasing property abroad as vacation homes or investment homes. Naturally, many of them are auditioning these homes for potential primary retirement residences.
