Live Like A King (Or Queen)
On Only $763 A Month
Maid, Gardener, Cook,
Travel, Dinners Out, And More…
You Can Afford It All in Ecuador
Dear Live and Invest Overseas Reader,
Ecuador is the #1 place in the world for a cheap and luxurious retirement…
In fact, no matter where you choose to live here…
Be it a tranquil mountain village, a historic colonial city center, or along the long stretch of sandy Pacific coast…
US$1,500 a month is more than you’d need for a happy and carefree retirement with all of the amenities from back home… plus a few new luxuries, too boot.
As I’ll show you in a minute, a couple settling in a small town could live easily on about US$650 per month…
But if you’d be happier in a world-renowned, 16th-century colonial city—with its theater, orchestra, art shows, restaurants, perfect weather, and cafés—you can do that starting at US$1,163 per month… or less than US$800 if you own your home.
Add a few hundred dollars to your monthly budget, and you could live in true luxury… with a cook, a maid, and even a driver attending you.
Plus, of course, you’d never run out of things to do…
Not with 1,400 miles of Pacific coastline, several historic colonial towns, the Amazon rainforest, the Galápagos Islands, and the Andes mountains all available to you nearby.
And Check Out These
INCREDIBLE Retirement Benefits…
The cost of living in Ecuador is cheap… really cheap.
Unlike back home, you can thrive here on your Social Security check alone.
Now, I know that can be hard to believe…
But it’s not just me and my ground-based team of experts making that claim…
In fact, the government of Ecuador has put a specific dollar figure on it: US$1275.
That is, to qualify for this country’s famous retiree visa, you only need a pension of about US$1275—20% less than the America’s average Social Security benefit.
At that budget, the government knows you’ll be able to pay for local goods and services, contribute to the economy, and live a comfortable life…
And talk about comfortable…
Foreign retirees here enjoy some of the best benefits in the world:
- 50% off electricity, water and telephone service…
- 50% off all public transportation…
- 50% off national and international airfare…
- 50% off all cultural, sports, artistic and recreational events…
- A special discount on property tax…
- A discount on vehicle taxes…
- No taxes on Ecuadorian income or foreign pensions…
- Even a refund of sales taxes…
And, perhaps best of all, you never have to stand in line. Seniors always get to skip to the front!
Indeed, Ecuador is one of those places that every would-be retiree abroad must consider…
Here Are 4 More Reasons This Is Our
#1 Place To Live Well On A Small Budget
Cheaper places exist in the world (especially in Asia), but Ecuador gets my pick for #1 Place To Live Well On A Small Budget because it offers so much more…
- Proximity… Ecuador is in the same time zone as the Eastern U.S. That makes those video calls with the kids easy to schedule, and you’ll never have a problem watching the big game. Plus, it’ll take you only about four hours to get here from Florida, or about six from New York or Texas…
- Familiarity… The official currency of Ecuador is the U.S. dollar, meaning you’ll never have to worry about currency swings pricing you out of your budget one day. Plus, thanks to thousands of current expats who’ve already taken our advice, Ecuador is home to one of the world’s fastest growing North American expat havens…
- Perfect Weather… Ecuador’s highlands feature several charming colonial towns, such as Cuenca. Their remarkable location has resulted in virtually no bugs to swat at and “spring-like” weather all year—an average of about 70°F (21°C) every day—which also means you’ll never have to spend money on heating or air conditioning…
- Diversity… did you know that the Galapagos islands, part of the Andes mountains, and part of the Amazon rainforest are all in Ecuador? Aside from nature, Ecuador also boasts diverse lifestyle options, from colonial Cuenca to cosmopolitan Quito, and from the sleepy mountain village of Cotacachi to the beach town of Playas…
What About The Real Estate?
I mentioned Ecuador’s incredible “red carpet” package of retiree benefits…
Of course, this country boasts many options for residency.
For example, the investor visa in Ecuador is easy to qualify for, with an investment requirement of only US$42,500.
Again, those figures don’t fluctuate, as Ecuador uses the U.S. dollar.
While using the dollar doesn’t offer currency diversification, it does offer stability (hence the continued low cost of living).
Regarding real estate, there are few other places on earth where you can buy a standalone ocean-view house for under US$100k.
In Cuenca (pictured to the right), a tourist and expat hot spot in the heart of colonial Ecuador, you can still find apartments for as little as US$75,000.
Now, Ecuador is not a booming property market…
While appreciation and rental rates could be rated as fair, the big idea here is cutting down on your own cost of living.
Owning a home in the highlands, where the weather is spring-like all year, means you’d have no rent to pay and little to nothing in utility bills. Fresh food is cheap and available, and a simple meal at a restaurant—chicken, rice, plantains, and salad—can cost as little as US$1.
If you’d like to add to your wealth, you could set up a low-cost base in Ecuador full- or part-time, while investing around the world or working online at a North American earnings level.
Collecting global income while living on a pittance?
It’s an easy and proven formula for never having to worry about your nest egg…

Luxury Living And Perfect Weather
In A Colonial City…
For Only US$763 A Month
Founded in 1557, Cuenca is one of our favorite cities in Ecuador…
A lot of retirement destinations tout the fact that they’re just like the United States—that you can settle in to familiar surroundings—but you won’t hear that about Cuenca…
Living here, walking the old cobblestone streets, marvelling at the historic Spanish architecture and the grandeur of Cuenca’s colonial churches, you’ll know that you’re not in Kansas anymore.
Cuenca’s elevation results in a temperate, “spring-like” climate all year round, so you’ll avoid the expenses of heat or air conditioning in Cuenca.
A large and growing expat community is in place, and they’re bound to welcome you with open arms.
The city is also very walkable, and the public transit system is excellent, like most of Ecuador…
Of course, you can live even cheaper—as low as US$763 a month in the same example above…
That is, just a block or two from Cuenca’s historic town square, you can buy a modern condo for less than US$80,000.
Property tax would set you back less than US$200 a year, and other holding costs are also dramatically low here.
So, buy instead of rent, and you’ll essentially wipe out that US$400 rental cost above…
Meaning your cost of living could drop to just US$763 a month.
You could also spend more… opt for a full-time maid that also cooks, and you’ll add that US$400 a month back to your budget.
A bigger home, faster internet, and your own vehicle would also add to your costs—though your budget would still total less than the average Social Security check.
The key to maintaining a low cost of living is getting to know the local vendors and suppliers, as well as the local pricing and customs.
We can help with that… and much, much more…

Yes! You Can Do This…
We’ll Show You How To Do It The Easy Way
Many folks who consider Ecuador decide to do it on their own…
But that requires a lot of work and even more precious time.
For instance, in a larger country like Ecuador—about twice the size of Florida—you’d want to cover the country from top to bottom in a rental car to check out your options.
And picking where you want to live is just part of the work…
You’ll also have to find and vet an honest rental or real estate agent and navigate a disorganized market with no Multiple Listing Service.
Then, if you want to live here full-time, you can sift through random websites with clashing residency information… or you can waste time searching for an English-speaking attorney to pay expensive fees.
And, perhaps hardest of all, going this route doesn’t provide you a support network. Without knowing anyone else who lives in Ecuador, you won’t have anyone you can ask for help.
In other words, you usually can’t just drop into your new life in Ecuador…
Unless you have the support and expertise of the world’s most helpful team here… presenting:
Give this wonderful country a try
…my daughter and I attended the conference… and I am now living in Cuenca. There is no excuse for being bored here… I am sure the upcoming conference will help others decide to give this wonderful country a try.
