      In the Us they plan on getting it all back no matter how much you save, you work 40+ years and if you take Social security at 62 they say you are "retiring early" and they penalize you, in an attempt to keep you working!!! The cost of assisted living or in home nursing help is not sustainable in the USA

Temporary requirement is 2400 to 2700 and permanent residency is 4500 to 4700 and you must show that you have had this amount in your bank account for at least 6 to 12 months, I found this out on another CZcams channel called Tangerine Travels and the video is called - Mexico just shot itself in the foot. I don't know why people that have CZcams channels , that are promoting to move to Mexico and how you can find cheap rent and the low cost of living is so great ,which I'm sure that it is, however no one mentions about the income requirements! I was getting so excited when I first started researching this and I will only have $1,600 a month when I retire, but if you don't know what the requirements are to live there , it doesn't do any good to get your hopes up and further your research if you don't make the income requirements . People really need to have honest information up front. I am sure that alot of CZcamsrs are promoting to move to Mexico, so they can get more subscribers so they can make money. I informed another CZcamsr Larissa Sokla and she deleted my message.

    He is right! If you pick a tourist city to live in Mexico, it gets really expensive. I live part time in a city on the central north part of Mexico and it’s way much cheaper. $5 a day going out to eat is true, of course it’s none of the fancy restaurants. It’s the local family food stands very natural healthy home made meals. Rent for a 3 bed house is about $300 a month plus $50 utilities a month

    The problem has become the financial solvency requirements to obtain legal residency in Mexico. How is he handling that? $2500 government pension OR $45,000 in the bank for the last 12 months! And, that's just for Temporal, permanent is quite a lot more. Most retired Yanks just don't have that much. I certainly don't have either of those but I have way more than enough to live easily in Mexico. Far more than this guy is spending. Am I missing something? You can't do the border-runs anymore and most of us can't meet the financial requirements. I'm looking at Ecuador but I'd much rather live in Mexico. Help!

      That's ridiculous! I have a very nice car I paid $14,000 for in 2006 and it's still a very nice car. $45,000 is a small fortune and the majority of retirees simply don't have it. I live in the US fine on much less than you suggest and Mexico is far cheaper. The financial requirements have become unreasonable. Period. But my point is, have I misunderstood something? I don't need your snarky comments about how only the rich should be allowed in Mexico! Or, apparently, anywhere, according to you.

Every night we went to visit Tacho and Adaleia who lived in a beach shack once owned by Peter O'Toole. Tacho's grandfather was the caretaker of the casita and as I understand it Tacho was given the house after his grandfather died.

      In Mexico, there's entire villages living on $3/day with a garden. It's probably just surviving, but gardens can produce all year long in a warm, sunny climate. Mango trees are HUGE and I've seen Indians eating Mangos for lunch - perhaps people are not as industrious in comfortable climates since it doesn't take a lot to live and enjoy life.

    It's okay living on $600/mo.if you live somewhere you can actually afford to live on that. The key is shelter and diet - there's no doubt one can live well on that in Mexico. Of course, migrating to Mex. would likely require more income, but the weather is nice and no need to waste money on heating or A/C.

    I was travelling in Oaxaca last year, and some of the prices there are very cheap. I suppose most foriegners want to live in areas with other foriegners, which actually drives up the prices. There are some beautiful towns in the mountians which are extremely cheap. I think in general the coastal regions are more expensive, so if I was trying to live or retire very cheap in mexico, I would definatly live more inland.

    Even in Mexico to live on $600.00 USD a month is a little tight .I'm guessing he has other financial assets .He might have good savings,a wife/partner that also contributes to the relationship .If you move to Mexico buy a house all paid for and you only collect $600.00 USD per month you can make it ,you wouldn't have to pay rent.You can still make it in Mexico Off $600.00 USD per month even if yo have to pay rent ,but I would say that would be kind of tight .You would almost have to find a apartment /house that rents for $150.00 USD to $180.00 USD per month .Those rental prices are out there if you know where to look.

    His living expenses are $1,100 per month, not $600. If you're paying rent to live somewhere, the cost of rent must be included as part of your living expenses. Also, if you're on a tight budget, don't live in Lo de Marcos if house rentals cost no less than $500 USD per month. You can find rental properties for $150 USD monthly in Mazatlán for example.

As one example, I have lived in Mexico for almost 5 years, live a middle class lifestyle comparable to the US, and spend, on average, 36,000 pesos per month. I own my home free and clear, as well as a nice SUV that is paid for…zero debt. I almost never eat at restaurants but do have 2 dogs. For the folks seeing this video and who live N.O.B. (North of the Border) please realize that it’s not as easy as before to come to Mexico and live as a “perpetual tourist”. If you dream of living in Mexico as a legal resident, you are going to need far more that $600 USD per month, in fact you’ll need 4 times that amount to “legally” qualify for residency.

      In the case with Memo it includes his house in cost. But as he says in the video that anybody coming in we need to add on $500 for housing cost. $1100 a month would be your entry point and going up. On average most single people are spending $1200 amount of $1500 a month. Because he's already qualified for a permanent visa he has no monthly cost for a visa. You would have to qualify for a temporary visa which is about $2500 a month you would need to show the Mexican government that you have each month going into a bank account. You do not have to spend $2500 a month to live on you can live on the $1100 a month and save the rest like he does. Look at that video one more time.

      Also, no mention of health insurance, I am guessing maybe he is either going without and relying on INSABI or he pays a little and is enrolled in IMSS. Maybe he kept part of his Medicare in the States as well. I wish that was covered.

      To live in Mexico on $1000 a month even if you could get a resident visa or 180 day visa is not realistic. A single person of $1500 a month or more would be reasonable amount to help but even that would be tight. If there ever was an emergency you will need to have some back up money.

      Progress has caught up in Mexico it's not your sleepy Third World country it has no manufacturing of automobiles, appliances, exporting fruits and vegetables. A large part of Mexico coastline brings in billions of dollars in tourism. The foreigners have invaded Mexico and they want a higher standard that they're used to as example they want five star hotels, new freeways and highways that have been upgraded they won't conveniences such as cable television, fiber optics high speed Internet. Other large companies have come into Mexico such as Costco, Applebee's restaurant, outback steak House restaurant, Chili's restaurants, the middle class is grown and they want the things that the Americans have such as cars, refrigerators, taking vacations etc. Mexico is not cheap anymore.
      Probably just like in your area that you live everything is gone up inflation is it welcome 2022.

      A lot depends on the city/town or village plus the accommodations you can be happy with, you can’t get a temporary visa (other than tourist) with only $1,000.00 per month income

      @@leoblumhagen644 - Agreed, however I am an early retiree. I am 61 but will not begin collecting a government or work related pension until I'm 65. In the meantime I will be living off of some of my investment savings. I acquired a permanent residency visa based on savings not income. I am willing to live a very spartan lifestyle for the next 4 years until my pensions kick in and my remaining investments mature and become available to me. I was looking on living inland, not a beach town, and renting a studio or even just a room with a bar fridge and two burner cooking unit for now for $1000 per month.

      FRANK, FRANK, oh dear FRANK. First of all Memo the gentleman in this video does not have to pay any rent he is caretaking the land that he lives on. Memo also produces a lot of his own food on his land that he is a caretaker. He does not have electricity bill, he does not have an Internet bill, does not have a cable bill, does not have a car payment, he receives free medical in Mexico in the IMMS medical system. He's a single gentleman, some days his whole food budget may be under five dollars and that's typical for him. So Frank Frank Frank when you say this is impossible Frank well all I can say I've interviewed him a few times I know him and this is 100% true frank Frank this is not fake news. FRANK make a comment let me what know what you think now. I have interviewed other people that live on $300 a month. Could I live on that know what I want to live on that now but some people are minimalist some people get excited about saving money and not spending money and this is the category that Memo is.

  • @dragonflydataV
    @dragonflydataV Před 2 lety +2

    You might be able to live on $600 a month but you won't be allowed into Mexico with even $1000 a month. Last I heard it was up to around $3000 a month. Far less than I live on in an expensive area, but I don't qualify to live in Mexico. So telling about people who live on $600 does not help at all, they won't let low income people in any longer. Talk about the things you can do and how to live on $3000 a month, or whatever the minimum is now.

    • @JerryBrownTravels
      @JerryBrownTravels  Před 2 lety +1

      Yes the immigration requirements to create a big problem but if you have the money to qualify $2500 a month income you can get a temporary visa that is good for four years then you just start to live on that $600-$1200 a month and save the rest.
