Where would you live?

At least you've tried it and can speak from personal experience Ricky

TBH you've summed up my thoughts, and I've got no plans to live in the Phil's until I retire. We can all complain about the Uk and the weather, but it's still home, it's modern, clean, safe and despite the recent economic problems we are still a lot better off than most. I love the UK and could never leave permanently, plus, most importantly, my kids are here and they always come first.
When I retire, 6 months in the Uk and 6 months in the Phils each year is my plan

yes - My gf has a young daughter and my kids are all grown...so I kinda thought exactly the same as you. When I retire, summer in the UK (fantastic) and extended Christmas and winter in Phil. What could be better? Hope my pension will be upto it!

I hope mine will be too. Well I've got another 17 years to save and for my equity based investments to recover, nothing more I can do now except plan and dream.
