[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This discussion is fascinating. Having grown up overseas (although I am American), it still surprises me how many Americans move away from friends and relatives during retirement. It makes no sense to me to go somewhere I've never lived before and start all over at age 65+. And the whole notion of moving to some gated retirement community or any retirement community far away from friends and relatives is simply bizarre to me. I mean, we need the company and support of loved ones even more as we age. Most of all, I want to live relatively near my child--why the heck would I want to live across the country or the world from my child?! I can see traveling to warmer climates or overseas but completely relocating makes little sense at that point in life. [/quote] Half the year during warm weather I live near my kids. Other half when the weather stinks I live far south and they love to visit. When we are apart I do miss them but thank you FaceTime![/quote]
