Or move to another country like Mexico or Thailand.

You can't outright move to Thailand at least. You'd need to do visa runs in neighboring countries but couldn't live there 365 days a year.

Those were just examples. There are dozens of alternatives.

Countries you could outright permanently move to? Which ones?

You mean countries that you can simply land and live forever without a visa? I doubt that exists.

But it should be easy to get a visa to live in Mexico, Costa Rica, Portugal, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovenia, etc.

Thailand and India are more complicated, yes, but getting out for a couple of days every and year and coming back is not such a big issue.

Good luck being old (not 40-50’s) in Thailand with some money you’ll be taken advantage off to death and that is putting it mildly.

Moving to countries which are objectively unsafe outside of a few protected tourist hotspot areas isn’t a good idea for anyone who’s vulnerable.

I think it's funny that Americans (I assume you're American, just based on statistics) thinks that moving to another country is just a thing you can decide to do, given the current immigration debate in the U.S...

I'm not American. I'm Spanish and have been living in Mexico for close to a decade.
