Hello all,
I figure this is the perfect place to ask this, as most contributors are from the US!
I fairly recently joined this board, and have decided to retire fully later this year. I’m late 40s, married, two late-teen children soon to go off to university in the UK (or perhaps US for one of them).
My question is please: how realistic would it be for someone to retire to the US with no US tax-efficient savings and no health plan?
Our situation, roughly $5.8m net assets. We’ll spend $80-$100k pa without the kids (education fund deducted from net assets already). The cost of housing would be much less than the UK. We’d consider either California or Colorado to live. The big unknown, and terrifying to a European, is how to navigate healthcare in the US.
Any thoughts or pointers on how to investigate healthcare for someone not familiar with the American system would be much appreciated!
Thank you!!
