An early retirement, let alone any retirement, may seem out of reach for many Americans who have been feeling the heat of inflation and low wage growth. Yet a thriving community of expats is managing to do just that, all by making the journey south of the border. On this week's Living Not So Fabulously, hosts John and David Auten-Schneider speak with KJ and Craig Beard of the YouTube channel "Truly Remarkable Life" about their big move to Ajijic, Mexico and how it allowed them to live out their retirement dreams. KJ and Craig discuss how they've lowered their cost of living, financial strategies to maintain income streams, and why they feel welcomed by the community in their new home.
