I'm 35 and I have roughly $400,000 saved I'm wondering if I can make that last 'forever' by moving to South East Asia.

I need to take a few years off but I wouldn't be opposed going back into engineering.

You don't have to move to Asia for a cheap and decent living, you can try a modern city from the Eastern Europe or Portugal, you'll find nice communities, open with the foreigners, interesting projects, volunteering, a social and healthy life.
