Bill Mauro and Marcus Laurence retired early while living in the Poconos. They soon realized that the high cost of health insurance would make it difficult to maintain their lifestyle in America. A vacation to Spain convinced them that retiring there was the answer! However, due to Spain’s residency rules they learned that health insurance would be costly there as well. They found they could move to Portugal and immediately use that country’s government healthcare. Find out more about Bill and Marcus’ path to Salgueiro da Lomba, Portugal, on Episode 83 of Retire There with Gil & Gene.
