They Said You Can't Retire on $1,200 a Month. I've Done It for 6 Years.

At sixty-six, a retired Scranton school cafeteria cook with a twelve-hundred-dollar Social Security check and a notebook full of rules moved to Roxas City, Capiz, while her accountant son told her it couldn't be done. This is the story of her real monthly numbers, the one rule that stopped her thumb over a one-way ticket home, and the way back she built before she ever left. This is a dramatized retirement story based on the real trend of Western retirees relocating to the Philippines. Cost figures reflect publicly reported ranges.
