Easy for us...the blonde has dual US/Ireland citizenship. She's a citizen of the EU. So we can drop down and dig in anywhere in the EU. I'm retired, she's semi-retired. And I'll tell ya what...it's more than just a little attractive to us these days. We've both pretty much had a gut-full of idiotic Americans and their fucked up social, political, and fiscal attitudes. Particularly the whining about taxes and then, for instance, turning around and demanding that the town we live in build a new $20 million aquatic center for their children who have nothing to do all winter. Apparently the "Y" isn't good enough for Chevy Suburban helicopter soccer mom Mary and Escalade investment banker country club John. Tell your children to get their asses up from the laptop or ipad and go jump in a snow drift if they're bored.
We each have a sibling, single male, who are pretty disabled and require help on a regular basis. Walking away from them, and the rest of family at this point in our lives would be tough. But after spending some time in Italy, France, England, Ireland and a few others it's very tempting. Just knowing we would never have to look at another goddamn Medicare Supplement summary sheet to try to figure out how we can reduce the butt-fucking we get from the insurance industry every year just about does it.
