In reply to Nick. Hi Nick, I think retirement planning is very important, because there will always come a time when we are unable or unwilling to work in the same way as in our younger years. And I have a few chapters above that address how to save for retirement! What is your question?

This is all good information but I always worry about later down the road like retirement years. I want to enjoy my years now but also be able to have a bigger cushion by the time I’m a senior. Does this still help?

In reply to Tara. YES! I learned how a VPN is so crucial whenever you're on any kind of public wifi (even if it's password protected)...at home and abroad!

In reply to Nora. Getting a VPN...although I might not start doing that until things open up again.

Hi Tara,
I’m curious what in this article are some of the things you aren’t currently doing that you’ll start now?

WOW! Talk about comprehensive! Thanks for such a fantastic resource Nora. There are some great suggestions and tips in here that I’ll be excited to add to the steps I already take, when it’s safer to travel again. Much appreciated.

Hey Nora, Thank you for sharing this excellent guide to financial planning for travelers. This blog is very useful for me as I traveling a lot. The point I liked the most is “Renting house while traveling” I think it’s a great tip and will keep in mind for next time.

In reply to Sam. Absolutely, Sam! Saving without a goal is generally a losing proposition, because without goals we lack motivation.

sometimes it’s not just about saving, it’s about recognizing you are saving and what you are saving for

In reply to Ryan Biddulph.

Hey Ryan,
I agree – over the last 12 years of living abroad, I’ve saved over $100,000 by getting free accommodation a lot of the time. And that doesn’t take into account what the equivalent cost would have been to rent some of the unbelievably luxurious places I’ve stayed; if I throw that in the mix, it’s much more.
