Tim Leffel Interview: Mexico as a $2,000/Month Geographic Plan B For Your Retirement

Author: Matt Franklin - entrepreneur, investor, consultant, video producer, retirement nerd June 10, 2021 Duration: 38:44

What if you can't afford to retire? What if half of your nest egg gets wiped out in the coming economic collapse? Or what if you could retire five years earlier by finding an alternative place to live for less than half the price of the US?

Today I'm very proud to have Tim Leffel on the show. He's an award-winning travel writer and author of The World’s Cheapest DestinationsTravel Writing 2.0, and the living abroad book A Better Life for Half the Price.

He is also editor of the narrative web publication Perceptive Travel, named “best online travel magazine” by NATJA and “best travel blog” by SATW.

This guy is a true expert on living abroad. Currently he's in Guanajuato, Mexico, living well for less than what his mortgage payment was when he lived in Florida.
