A Texas boomer couple who retired to an expat hot spot in Ecuador explains how it helps them save money
Briefly

Karl, an Air Force veteran and orthodontist, expressed concern over the U.S. financial scene after the 2008 crisis, stating, 'Nobody had their hand slapped...I finally decided that things were not going well in the United States.' This deep concern drove him to search for a better retirement option, ultimately leading him to Ecuador. The move was not only about cost, but a more peaceful lifestyle away from the stresses of the U.S.
Brenda, reflecting on her experience in Texas, noted, 'Every time I would go into a store, I get this feeling that everyone's stressed.' This observation highlighted the pressure felt in her previous environment, influencing her decision to join Karl in seeking a more serene and financially sustainable life in Ecuador, where she and Karl now thrive.
