I have been permanently disabled since the age of 49 but was a high school special needs teacher until this happened. Although I know much general information through years of helping my students and their families, I have been unable to find anything concerning places that offer property tax, income tax, etc. allowances to disabled persons under age 60. There are many states and communities that make adjustments for seniors over 60+, but I have found none for those of us under that age. Our costs and needs are just as great or greater than those of normal retirement age. It seems to be a gaping hole in our tax laws that has not been addressed. Does anyone have information to the contrary; know of places to move that offer such dispensations? Thanks

SCSEP... AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED THIS ORGANIZATION COULD CARE LESS ABOUT SENIORS. DISABLED PEOPLE TRYING TO GET BACK INTO THE WORK FORCE OR GET TRAINING THAT THEY NEED TO DO SO. I WAS TREATED RUDELY AND DISRESPECTEDLY WHEN I HAD A SHORT ILLNESS THEY ARE PUTTING THE BLAME ON THE HOST AGENCY; WHICH I FOUND MYSELF BECAUSE MY SUPERVISOR. THEY FALSIFIED MY MEDICAL REPORTS OF WHICH THERE WERE NONE. EXCEPT A NOTE FROM A DOCTORS APPOINTMENT WHICH WAS THE RESULT OF BLOOD TEST ANMD EXRAYS WHICH CQAME BACK ONLY TO SAY THAT I DID NOT HAVE LUPUS. I WAS MORE OR LESSW TALKED INTO SIGNING A PAPER FOR MEDICAL EXCUISEAL,BECAUSE MY SUPERVISOR HAD FIRED ME TWO DAYS PRIOR TO
THE MEETING OF HERSELF, AND HER SUPERVISOR ON MY TIME.
DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN EXPERIENCE WORKS BECAUSE THERE WILL BE NO ONE OUT THERE TO HELP YOU !!!!!!

Many people who could retire can't or, if retired, are finding they have to work- as you say. Some are choosing to retire to an RV but work or volunteer. Not only is the cost of living much less in an RV, but there are jobs available, often including a free RV site. You travel to an area, work or volunteer, and explore that area before moving on. That way fuel bills stay low. Often area businesses give free and discounted admissions to attractions to RV workers.
RV retirement is an excellent option for many.

I don't think I can retire in this country. I'm looking to moving offshore for my retirement. I've looked at several places including Panama as a retirement destination. How does this site feel about foreign retirement?
