Stay close to your loved ones

Where is your family living? Don’t relocate without them! Before taking into consideration any other factors, you should first make sure you are going to retire near your family. Spending time with your family and loved ones is the most important thing. Even more important than good healthcare because most of our problems tend to come from poor mental health. Living near your family members will not only boost your energy but also significantly improve your well-being, productivity, and mental health. With your loved ones around, we guarantee you’ll get the best treatment and have the best time.

    Why do I get the feeling that this list is compiled by 20-30 yo who don’t want the old geezers infiltrating their favorite hangouts?

    Living near our adult children and grandchildren is likely the most important aspect of our mental state of mind during retirement. Looking forward to seeing them on the weekend for a BBQ, swim in our pool, or baking cookies is a key driver for our mental state of mind. Knowing they live nearby when there is an emergency, and we can help each other is rewarding and lowers stress.

    We have done lots of traveling throughout the world since retiring, and the experiences were wonderful. Now that we are getting older, we limit our travels outside the United States unless we can travel with a family member.

    We are fortunate to have lived in our home for over 38 years. Our kids and grandchildren love coming to our house. The downside is remodeling and repairs to our long-term house can get expensive. But the memories make it worthwhile.
