Hopefully we can keep our home in Seattle!

I hope it is here. If they are within a reasonable driving distance, we will probably stay in our home which will be paid off by then and has an awesome yard for my future grandchildren :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-plan-to-live-during-retirement#post-1479537 Fri, 07 Mar 2014 19:51:28 +0000 HLK208 1479537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just near our kids.

The humidity here just drives the chill right into your bones in the winter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-plan-to-live-during-retirement#post-1479467 Fri, 07 Mar 2014 19:11:56 +0000 Ginabean3 1479467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to be like this couple:</p> <p><a href="http://alisonanddon.wordpress.com/about/" rel="nofollow">http://alisonanddon.wordpress.com/about/</a></p> <p>Just gotta get DH on board! :-D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-plan-to-live-during-retirement#post-1474598 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 15:13:12 +0000 heffalump 1474598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Here.

Here. I don't see us moving away because all of DH's family is here. It'll be interesting to see if our kids move somewhere and then we move there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-plan-to-live-during-retirement#post-1474486 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 14:58:08 +0000 mediagirl 1474486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd like to live close to the coast or the mountains. It depends on my parents.

Somewhere quiet and nowhere near a city - a nice little town would be lovely. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-plan-to-live-during-retirement#post-1474454 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 14:55:05 +0000 MaryM 1474454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not sure if DH and I will ever be able to afford to retire...</p> <p>However, my niece has told me she'll take care of me when I'm old and feeble. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-plan-to-live-during-retirement#post-1474452 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 14:54:53 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1474452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hopefully close to the beach. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-plan-to-live-during-retirement#post-1474442 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 14:53:54 +0000 lamariniere 1474442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and I talk about this. I want to live in a big city so that we have lots to do, don't have to worry about cars and it is easy for our kids to visit us. Ideally it would be Paris. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-plan-to-live-during-retirement#post-1474435 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 14:53:03 +0000 Torchwood 1474435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it'll depend on our kid(s). I'd like to be near them, especially if we have grandkids. But if we wind up with them widely scattered, or if they move a lot like we do, or if they don't have kids, or any number of things, that may not be as big of a deal. DH wants to retire to the Caribbean. I'm more of a mountains person, but I think I could be happy on the beach. :)</p> <p>Ideally somewhere in Scotland, but DH isn't as big on that. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-plan-to-live-during-retirement#post-1474416 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 14:50:21 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1474416@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hopefully we will live on an East Coast barrier island. The Carolinas seem divine. </p>
