If you want to leave your home country behind, move to Ecuador. 

That's according to the largest survey of expatriates in the world. Nine out of 10 respondents from the South American country reported being satisfied with their lives there, making it the No. 1 destination. 

The data comes from the 2014 Expat Insider, administered by InterNations. It includes responses from nearly 14,000 expats from more than 160 countries. 

The questions touched on general quality of life, working abroad, family life, leisure and making friends abroad, international romance and expat relationships, and personal finances.

Of the top ten on this list, only three made my list. And my top pick is nowhere on the entire list of 50.

Funny how many people from Mexico desperately want to move to the USA..... and now they’re telling us that it’s one of the best places for Americans to move to...

Something is missing here that they’re not telling us....

Mexico? I quit visiting there over 10 years ago. I sure wouldn’t move there.

Where is Costa Rica?

A woman I know and her husband just came back from a visit to Costa Rica. They were thinking about retiring there or somewhere outside the US. However, it looks like the couple won't be moving. One concern is the quality of health care in these countries.

Of course, thanks to Obamacare, our health care will eventually deteriorate to the level of third world countries.

What they are not telling you is that if you buy property in Mexico they can and have previously taken it away from you.

For political and economic I like Chile. Its a lot like the USA in the 1950’s but with Spanish. Also like Brazil, but their politics sucks and their government can be business oppressive.

How is crime rate ( peace and order ) there compared to the USA?

Yes, wife and I are considering Belize. There is talk of a ferry operating this spring from Florida to the Yucatan. That way we can take our PU truck without driving through Mexico.

Ecuador would be OK if you don’t mind a revolution every second Tuesday.

The crime rate is very low. Of course you wouldn’t want to live in Belize city. Inland around San Ignacio in the Cayo district seems to be the place to be.

I believe there are some places in Mexico that are less crime infested than others.

I’m not leaving. Let the satanists leave. I’m not using liberal, progressive, communist, environmentalist, islamist terms anymore. They’re all satanists.
