This is good. Look there is nothing wrong with God. he/she wants you to be happy/not in pain bottom line!!! if you are in pain. hopefully the pain is not your fault, even if it is, and you are. god doesnt want you to be there, take comfort in that. BUT THIS RANT ISNT ABOUT GOD!!!! (best advice) try to be happy. because even if the last thought you have before you die isnt a happy one, you will have wanted it to be.

My husband and I are planning on retiring to either Mexico or Panama after the financial meltdown cost us our retirement savings. In Mexico, if we are legal residents, we can receive quality health care for about $300 per year. It covers everything, including prescriptions. What's wrong with the US?

There will be WWIII. Soon. The US and UK lose this time. Sooooooooooooo, there is only one thing to do. Find the truth and the truth will set you free. Right now we have religious anarchy BUT a prophet like Elijah is coming who will set things straight and turn hearts back go God the Father. LISTEN TO HIM, repent and be baptized, and be taken to a place of safety when the TRIBULATION hits on the HOUSE OF ISRAEL (all 13 tribes)!

I am an editor for InternationalLiving.com -- I do a lot of research on the best places in the world to retire. For those people who think they can't afford to retire...because of increasing taxes, rising health care costs, or because you lost your pension or your retirement portfolio took a hit...there is light at the end of the tunnel. By moving to a country with a lower cost of living, a government-sponsored health plan, and better weather -- where you won't need air conditioning or heat -- you can live very, very well on a small income. And don't worry...you don't have to move to a place where you worry about your personal safety. We would never recommend any country that is unsafe or doesn't offer all the creature comforts (good roads, modern shopping malls, state-of-the-art hospitals, high-speed Internet, cable TV in English, etc. etc.) that we all want and deserve as retirees. There are options out there and America isn't the only land of plenty anymore. (Unfortunately, though, it's one of the most expensive.) I'm sold on this idea, not just because I work for InternationalLiving.com, but because I am living the life myself and know many other people who are, too.
