sagewarrior Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Hey all! First time posting a thread here. I'm 37, have a wife and a two yr-old, and am 100% P&T as of late 2015. Tried a few jobs but with my back/legs issues, it's been a challenge. I keep reading about these great places abroad where cost of living is significantly less. I served overseas and loved it. Any of you all gone the expat route or know someone who has on their VA pay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullycat Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Hi, I lived overseas in taiwan after college while in my twenties. I loved every bit of it. Then moved home And joined the military got hurt (hips back and anything that follows) and have been dreaming of moving back overseas to live. Taiwan can be very cheap and can be very expensive I'm sure all countries are simular. But places like Taiwan are very forgiener easy to live. I'm looking forward to getting my disability problem resolved and I'm moving back . I made decent money teaching English, even though I have a college degree I made more money not using the degree. There are American schools. Western grocery stores. And every day is an adventure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HadIt.com Elder Buck52 Posted January 17, 2019 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted January 17, 2019 I was in Taipei on R&R from Vietnam in 70 and I loved it there the people were all good at speaking good English and they were very nice, I enjoyed my week there, did a lot of sight-seeing..I'd go again if I had the $$$ and time. eh! Not so sure I'd want to live there, but if the USA don't get straighten out up there in Washington Its heavy thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
