I broke my back in a bad airborne incident and apparently that made me a little mental.

I would say 60 is the lowest unless you have some supplemental income. Anything lower would make it tough to be comfortable but it could be done.

Well is it tied to being 60% (because you're 60%), or is it that you need only a certain amount of money (not much) to live well?

I swore I've never go back to anywhere between southern Mexico and Northern Columbia/Venezuela, but I might have to rethink that as I grow older.

60 is the sweet spot of the bat(for me) because it is right around $1000 which is what I comfortably lived on.

Here is a better beach pic. I don't carry a camera much so I really don't have too many pictures.

Yeah buddy! I am going to retire here too. Now that I am married I want to buy a house though. We are heading to the states next year to work for 4 years and buy a place so I can retire at 35. I will be finishing my masters and teaching k-8 special ed in Colorado Springs. My wife loves the mountains but I couldn't live in Denver. Then...retirement with a swimming pool and an ocean! Woohoo! Come join!!!

On the Caribbean side. I would never live near Tom Fady on the left coast here. Plus, the 1000 bucks would mean nothing over there.

How long did the whole VA process take you?

The wife is about to get out after 11 years in the Air Force and it's pretty much a guarantee that she's going to be above 60% (going on 4 knee surgeries and a couple of other issues).

At the Sioux Falls VA I was all sorted out within 9 months. Sorry for her knees!

Mine is not quite as adventurous but one night, I was working late in OP and came out to me car, which had been frozen over due to an ice storm and I couldn't get the key in the keyhole as it was frozen over.

I pissed on that keyhole, melted the ice, scraped that shit from my windshied, and drove home, while my car clunked along with ice blocks frozen to the tires.

"Man, **** this shit" I said. One week later I was on my way to California. No job, no place to live and just $3K in cash.

I have NEVER regretted that silly, spontaneous move.
