I can understand the attraction on living some where with great weather, cheap housing, good medical care and so on, but what happens when things go 'south' and you are stuck. During most uprising foreigners are easy targets by all sides.

Sounds like a story of a retiree moving to the retirement paradise of California

Then, the country he chose as his retirement paradise began to unravel. When was Nicaragua ravelled?

A lot of American retirees bought 99 year leases on the coast of Baja Mexico (non citizens can’t buy property; only lease or rent it) then when there was nice finished row of luxury homes, built by the retirees, with a million dollar view of the Pacific ocean the Mexicans came in and evicted them all and took them over. I suspect the influential politicians, cartel honchos, and other connected Mexicans took them over.
There’s not a single chance in hell I would risk living in any Hispanic speaking country.

Who wants to retire to a country run by a corrupt leftwing dictator?

ZOMG! Nicaragua, unstable? Who knew?
To: Kartographer
Left wing idiots shouldn’t complain - this is the natural endgame of stupid liberal policies - enjoy the mess you’ve created libs.

Ortega is the same clown that emptied all the seed/grain bins to “feed the people”.
Came planting time they’d eaten all the seed stock.. Nuttin’ to plant!

This would have made sense in Costa Rica or Panama. But not Nicaragua or El Salvador.
These people do the absolute minimum amount of research on their ‘dream retirement’ locations.
To: Kartographer
Anyone who would move to that country without first reading-up on it’s awful political history is an effing fool.

I can understand wanting to leave Mexifornia, but why would anyone in their right mind move to a worse sh!thole?
Californians take their insanity with them when they move elsewhere, Beware AZ, TX, NV, OR, WA, ID, etc., etc., etc.

Don't ask me. When I have warned people in the past that being an ex-pat can go from sugar to poop in a matter of hours I was told to shut up that I was just a bitchy American who could not understand how horrible the US was and how wonderful the rest of the world is.
Some people have to pee on the electric rail for themselves I guess.

Allow me to correct the Articles opening statement.
After Decades of poisoning the minds of American Children while teaching Social Studies at CA Schools, the guy moved to the Workers Paradise of Nicaragua.

I guess that extra 10% savings retiring in Nicaragua vs. Costa Rica or Panama doesn’t look like such a wise choice now.
