      Not only good health...security...& adventure...but ""prosperity"" over what I could ever had obtained back home.

      Don't blame average Americans, we just want to get along in peace and prosperity with everyone else. The Globalist Elites who control the foreign policy of both Major Parties are the war mongers, not the American people. Trump kept the Elites under some semblance of control, it's the main reason they HATE him and are using all their tools to prevent his reelection. Trump has a BIG MOUTH, but he kept America out of overseas wars and struck good trade agreements with China, Japan, Mexico and many other nations.

      The increasing prices have impacted my plan to retire at 62, work part-time, and save for the future. I'm concerned about whether those who navigated the 2008 financial crisis had an easier time than I am currently experiencing. The combination of stock market volatility and a decrease in income is causing anxiety about whether I'll have sufficient funds for retirement.

      This is precisely why I like having a portfolio coach guide my day-to-day market decisions: with their extensive knowledge of going long and short at the same time, using risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying it off as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, their skillset makes it nearly impossible for them to underperform. I've been utilizing a portfolio coach for more than two years, and I've made over $800,000.

However, Canada is not immune to nutcase ideas on socio-economic issues as we share history and a long border with the US - the source of most of these metaphysical flights of fancy. If you are a world citizen it matters little where you live but the US and the UK are not recommended as permanent residences unless you are ultra wealthy (greater than 20 million US dollars) and have strong family commitments in North America or age-related infirmities.

Taken to extremes, which happens when either one of the 2 parties have any bit of power, they both lead to moralistic tyrannies, either the Woke Leftists with their dogma, or the religious evangelicalism associated with the Right. Better would be something closer to libertarian and classical liberal ideals which actually promote freedom instead, but we are stuck with Dems and Reps, and special interests who are actually running the show. Also less interests that favor and interfere with other countries and instead invest locally would be better. I know most Americans do not feel like they are represented by their representatives.

Could not enter medical school even with having met entrance requirements due to quota system for non muslims. Got passed up for promotion even though i have a degree and relevant experience. Guy who got the position have no degree (applied chemistry in carbons, as it was a oil company, was the bare minimum pre requisite). My wife was Malaysian and was discriminated because she didnt speak Malay as she grew up in singapore. I was forced to translate for her to get her passport renewed even though those serving us at the counter spoke English. I am now in Australia, not perfect but my children who are now adults have better opportunities and their degrees are recognized in most countries, enabling international mobility. I am not pouring cold water but there's a lot more to what we see superficially. I was a PR in Singapore and worked for over 12 years.

      Nothing wrong with most Americans, but the political system has been corrupted. US foreign policy is controlled by Globalist Elites and has been for many decades. Only Donald Trump tried to stop the continual overseas wars/regime changes and you can see how they treat him.

      ​@@fannyalbi9040 On an *Individual* level, most Americans are nice. But Americans group themselves into many factions (or tribes), all unfortunately paranoid, and at each others throats. Think about this FACT:
      "In no other similarly large, wealthy country are firearms the TOP cause of *death for CHILDREN and teens,* but it is on America"
      And Americans simply don't care. If they did, they would do something about it. I could list 1,000 other horrific signs of the American cultural collapse. But when a Country doesn't even care about its own _Children,_ that should be a big RED flag.

    I have loved America since I was a teenager and I came at age 19 from England. I always believed the spin that the US was the greatest country, that they were always helping other nations get freedom and democracy. It was all a lie. The list of wars, invasions, regime changes, occupations is staggering. The evil democrat party woke me up and now I find I can't live here anymore. A broken heart is not easy to cope with. I know my home country is just as bad, they follow along regardless. It is better to look for a more tolerant and peaceful country to spend the rest of my life in. I would live in Russia but not sure I can learn the language at this point. I am in my early 70's. The cost of living here is way over the heads of ordinary people and seniors are forgotten completely. Illegals are given more money to live on than the average retiree. What a sad decline.

We even have a term for these religion riders: "penunggang agama" 😂. As long as you are polite to everyone and ask nicely, your errands will run smoothly. As a Christian evangelist, though, I have to exercise caution whenever share the Gospel of Jesus to my Malay friends, because it is illegal under the law to proselytize to Muslims. A pastor (Raymond Koh) has been abducted by the deep state for publicly preaching the Christian Gospel to Malays. But if you're just here for business and not Gospel, then no problems at all.

    Sell everything, if you have around 500,000 USD, you can go to my country Indonesia. you can have around 8,000,000,000 IDR. Picture this, if you put all of that on govt bond, you can get around 6% per year or around 40 mil IDR per month. that pretty much middle manager salary here for not doing anything.
    another perk: global neutrality, low tax, friendly people.

    Another great video! Henderson was spot on talking about the friction points. A person has to pay attention to these kinds of things. We have been retired in southern France for 6 years now. My French is poor, but my wife is fluent and spends a great deal of time extending herself to the locals. Me not so much, but I grow a lot of food in my big garden and I give food away to neighbors and friends. That makes friends. We have wonderful healthcare and our food costs are dirt cheap. We go to 1-3 markets a week and have a dozen castles within 100 kilometers. Plus the highways are smaller, cars are smaller and there is not the gun culture of the US.

      That's odd that you mentioned the 2nd Amendment in a bad light. I'm Malaysian and the only things I found aren't problems in the US while visiting the US for three months are the Constitutional priviledges of Americans (which aren't actually priviledges but unalienable rights not granted by government). To my chagrin, I found that most if not all of US problems, stems from the US NOT following its Constitution. In other words, I'm disappointed in the hypocrisy of US politicians and lawmakers who do not understand nor follow the US Constitution.
      The reason why people wanted to move to the US is its unique constitution, but since that is no longer followed and that the US is in rapid decline, it's now better to move out.
