I was doing a little EOY accounting, and I wanted to see where I could afford to retire to with my current amount of investments. I searched a bit, but couldn’t find anything good, and then I remembered the old /r/financialindependence sidebar.

Since I happen to be a mod, I went ahead and abused my mod powers and added it to the community info here. My wife is from another country, and we’re not yet to the point where we could retire there, but we’re surprisingly close, so I now have a new milestone to shoot for.

I don’t know the methodology they use here, or how often it’s updated, but I think it’s fun to look around at options.

I remember another site that simply gave a list of countries in order from cheapest to most expensive and you’d enter your current assets and figure out where you could go. I thought it was a lot of fun to see what “upgrades” an extra year or two of working would get me, but I didn’t bookmark it. If anyone can find something like that, please post it.

Anyone considering going expat? If so, does this resource seem accurate? Do you have others you like better?
