Yes.\n\nI'm going to retire in the Philippines to live the rest of my life with my husband.  We've begun putting it all together.  We're looking forward to achieving this.\n\nFor the time being, I spend June & July and a couple weeks of December there every year.  It's part of the romance.  It's our reward for our diligence the rest of the year.

I believe it's around $11,000 monthly, based on my extremely "quick-'n-dirty" calculations. Take a look at the savings calculator link I put in the Source field.

sounds a bit illegal.  what is your gender, how old are you, and what do you mean by enough money?

You have THE NUMBER!\n\nhttp://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y&isbn=0743270312&itm=2\n\nThis book asks what is the amount of money you need to put away to be financially free (or something to that effect). I havent read it yet but its on my list.\n\nI heard the question and my answer is 10 million. Invest it in riskless gov't bonds and you get half a mill to spend each year. Who needs that much, invest half or 1/3rd there and the rest in a value investing plan like found in this book:\n\nhttp://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y&isbn=0471733067&itm=1\n\nAnd you are set for life!

You must meet 125% of the Poverty Guideline for the size of your household.  So if you live on your own, you would need to earn no less than $12,250.00.\n\nThe 2006 Poverty Guideline can be found here: http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_1327.html

it depends on how much money you have to invest

I actually do finance and asset management for families.  If you were to retire TODAY... 1 million dollars at a modest 5% return would pay you $50,000 a year.  MOST could live pretty well off of that.  Depending on your age, you might need to save a little more just to battle inflation.  (essentially   $50,000 a year will not be worth as much each year)  And, if you do not own your home, this has to be taken into consideration as well.  I just read an article that predicts in the next 20-30 years their will be significant advancements in medicine allowing us to live well into our hundreds!  So be sure your prepared to go the distance!

A lot!\n\nProminent Filipino families are "old rich." I don't know how many exactly but they are often business tycoons who own land and are politically influential. Among them are:\n\nLocsin\nRoxas\nSy\nTan\nAyala\nCojuangco\n\nand there are more....\n\nIn fact a few of them made the richest people in the world list of Forbes Magazine

I don't know if there is a specific percentage that you should have, but it's never too early to start investing and saving for retirement through an account like an IRA or 401k, which are often available through your place of employment.\n\nI think it is important to consider the expense of living for a considerable amount of time with little to no income during retirement.  Other things to figure are inflation rates, longevity, and the quality of life you would like to maintain in retirement.\n\nI suggest you find a financial consultant to discuss your retirement plans.  They deal with planning people's investments day in and day out and may be able to better assist your in your inquiry.
