Did it occur to you that perhaps he doesn't want to live in Central or South America?

For this situation, we have the aphorism "beggars can't be choosers," which I find particularly apt for someone who became the former through being the latter.

With enough money to live on for a few years he's hardly a beggar.

But if he chooses only the expensive, he'll be a beggar much sooner.
