If you could choose any place in the world to retire and money were no object, where would you live?

Venice, Italy.

I haven't seen enough of the world to know. And I'm far too young to think in that much depth about retiring!!!

Somewhere green, with hills.......that's about as precise as I can be right now

Manhattan.

The Daintree Rainforest, Queensland, Australia. I would build a house up on stilts surrounded by the rainforest.

Money isn't the issue for me. It is where would Sue be willing to follow me. She likes it here and I'm the sort that visits somewhere cool once and wants to move there. Our retirement is going to be very interesting! There may be crying and fistfights.

right where I live right now...

if I had to choose a different place, it's likely I'd choose somwhere in the southwest US, Bali or England...

it would have to be somwhere that lion wanted to be.

Alaska

Good question! I think if I was going to retire, I'd want to move out of the city and into a more bucolic setting. "Any place in the world" made me consider a variety of exotic locales, but then I thought I wouldn't want to be so far away from my friends and family. My parents have a lovely place on Saltspring Island, not too far from here. I think that would be a nice place to retire. It seems to suit my folks alright.

Same city I live in now (San Francisco) but about 3 miles from my current apt., in a neighborhood of good views and expensive, well-kept-up older houses.

Right now? I don't know.

West Virginia, with a huge expanse of land so I could never ever see or hear my neighbors.

In a suite in the Grand Floridain Hotel in Walt Disney World.

Canyonlands National Park.

Egypt or Hawaii!

Somewhere warm, on the ocean.

The Bahama's, and I might be going in about a year, as soon as I can get my son out of high school.

Tahiti

San Francisco

Hot Springs Arkansas. Honeymoon Haven.

florida

san diego

san francisco....... first.
anywhere in the hills of arizona......

ooooooooooooo, crying and fistfights!!!! when will your retirement be? can i watch???????

Off world would be my first choice.

Maine is awfully pretty.

Mars.

The coast of Italy of course.

Why Egypt?

Along the beach of Ouidah....or by the foot of the volcanoes of Atitlan.

At home.
I mean one of my own,but in my city.

That sounds like it could be interesting

Ireland.

I've always been fascinated with Egypt since I was a kid - I really want to be an archaeologist or Egyptologist. That's my dream really.

I lived there for five years. I had to go to a class that we referred to as "Egypt Torture" It was really Egypt culture, when I was a kid. I am thankful for that now. I didn't appreciate it much when I was there.

Florence, Oregon...namely the Oregon Coast, but I probably wouldn't retire, but open a combo bed and breakfast and bookstore.

Here in New Orleans, where I've always lived. I'd buy a house on St. Charles Avenue and live like the Uptown rich people do.

The Bahamas Mama!!!

Brazil. City or countryside - the best people and music, fresh, wonderful fruit, the ocean to swim in, Capoeira, romantic men, appreciation of all body types, wonderful humour, sun, coconuts, .....

Holland

i would go take an international flight to gremeny and meet up with an old sweet heart and spend the rest of my life with him

Without a doubt, Australia, England, Egypt Or China

On a farm with some horses.

Italy

Betty Ford ( All that therapy!!!)
