Retirement

Ten percent of baby boomers have chosen to retire outside the U.S., taking their retirement plans and pension dollars abroad where life is less expensive. For retirees looking for the best of all worlds – affordable cost of living combined with excellent health care, proximity to family back home and fantastic weather – Costa Rica is the answer. Here you can stretch your dollar without making big sacrifices: $1,500 a month will cover a modest home rental, health care, public transportation, as well as high-speed Internet and cable television.
