    Is a Visa required to work in Spain, Portugal and Italy? And are there jobs you can get where mostly English is spoken? I speak Spanish but not Portugese or Italian.

            I was really looking forward to your How to move out of the U.S. workshop but the video locked-up at the part just after Jennifer asked Suzan what some of her biggest surprises are?
            Kind of dissapointed!

                    People have mentioned moving overseas due to the political situation in the US, but there's no perfect place in the world. The far right is rising in Europe, and there's also a lot of instability in other parts of the world. Can the current expats comment on the political, and socio-politcal situation where they are?

                        I tried loggin in at 11 EST and the link would not load. I called in and was placed on hold for 30 minutes before being disconnected. I was finally able to login a back way into the community forum but the youtube video had to be fast forwarded to 45 minutes in to start the presentation and then it ended in the middle of Susan Haskins talking 15 minutes later. How do we access Part 2?!?

                          Really disappointed that this won't play correctly. Stops, starts, ends. I've refreshed dozens of times and tried on other browsers. I've now listened to the first 11 minutes 3 times.
                          Can you provide a link to WHOLE conversation?

                              Most countries I've checked out require some sort of investment in order to reside there. A major real estate or infrastructure investment is not feasible for me at this point because I'm looking at another 10 years or so before retirement and the minimum range I've seen for these investments is $300-500K. I know very few people who have that kind of free cash just sitting around. However, stocks or similar invesments is something that I am able to do, especially when I have a decade to build up to that amount. The problem I'm running into is that investing in another country's stock market seems to require a bank or brokerage account in that country, which is apparently impossible to get without a local address. So, how do I do this?

                              Lots of countries also have some form of a "retirement" visa which do not require any kind of investment in the coutnry. You will, though, need to show that you have a certain amount of verified income each month...pension or social security, savings and investments, etc.

                                Is it worth only expating 4-6 months a year? My wife is dead set against going full-time expating.

                                Yes, of course. Many "snowbirds" do exactly that... go abroad during winter months. (There are "sweatbirds," too--from states like Arizona, Texas, Florida--who flee to cooler climates in the summer.) The good thing about being a part-time expat is that you likely won't need a visa. Mexico, for instance, allows 180 days on a tourist visa. Other countries will give you 90 days but make it easy to go to immigration office for a 90-day extension. If this is what you want to do, go for it. You will be in good company.

                                  If you have a small income, I would definitely point you to coastal Ecuador, although I think you'll find that some of the mountain communities there are even more affordable as you won't need heat or AC and that's where food is grown, so it doens't need to be transported and it more affordable.

                                      I tried this link to this webinar about a dozen times and it did not work. I waited on the phone for customer service for 42 minutes and no one came on - listened to classical music which was nice - but I wanted to be on the webinar. I sent an email to customer service and they answered one of my questions about where were all the publications I paid for but had not received in the last three months. But, they did not answer to how to get your link to work. Very dissapointed with the level of customer service from this company.

                                          I am interested in going to Portugal, Port region, on September, for two months, and renting a small Airbnb with kitchenette.
                                          Who can I get in touch with to help me start my exploration of moving and eventually settling in that country?

                                          I currently live in Portugal, 20 minutes south of Porto. I relocated all on my own from Colorado. All of the popular rental sites work as well as some from the UK for short term rentals. You need to think about where you want to be at in Porto to determine where to rent but the public transportation is very good and the center is very walkable.
