Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
If it were up to Nords and ERD50 you would think that I was either still at work or in the poorhouse. I guess that's what I get for doing the 'transparency' thing in my old 'insane emergency RE plan' thread.
Hey, at least I'm *some* sort of example.
Just a quick update. The wifey and I quit our jobs in March of last year, spent six months homeless and living in our SUV (fortunately we were towing a pop-up camper) *heh* We saw most of the major national parks in the U.S. and lots of friends and family, and then returned to our home base to spend the holidays with my parents and brother.
In February we moved to Mexico and have been living here rent-free, taking care of a very nice home and some pets. We're getting lots of sun and taking nice walks and losing weight. In August we'll live rent-free in a yoga retreat in Puerto Escondido and then move on to either Merida and/or Belize.
We have been what I call 'semi-retired' for over a year now. The money expenditures were a bit higher than we would have liked while driving around the states last year, but have settled down *very* nicely here in Chapala. We have done the occasional freelance work for extra income, and are about to add a few ebooks into the mix.
For lots of updates and pictures you can check out our blog (in my profile).
Adios!
