Once that goal is in place, it is easier to narrow down possible locations and then factor in cost,” he told the site. “For example, if you want to ski then the good financial choice may be to retire to Colorado or even Utah, but if you enjoy boating and the beach perhaps Florida would be the better option.“Choosing another location, for purely cost of living reasons, might end up more expensive if it doesn’t offer your desired lifestyle and you find yourself either depressed or traveling more frequently.”
