Places to retire!........ and Invest?

(Part 2 of 5)

As the World changes, countries once embroiled in tradition now look to change and accept others on their own terms. 

Take Cambodia as a prime example, Western-style apartments are available to rent from $300 a month in the capital of Phnom Penh, and go for as little as $200 a month in the beach town of Sihanoukville. 

Meals at quality local and international restaurants cost as little as $10 to $20 for two people. 

As Cambodia moves with the times so do the little things change accordingly. Cambodia also offers massive savings for those who require regular medications, with cities such as Phnom Penh having several professional pharmacy chains and specialists that provide brand name medications at less than 10% of the cost it would be in the U.S.

If there is one thing that expats in the Kingdom of Cambodia are most likely to agree on, it's that this country offers an affordable cost of living that is hard to compete with.

Expats report living the high life in Cambodia on a low budget. "The cost of living here is so low that my bills total only around $1,200 a month, without having to budget," says expat Brett Dvoretz, who lives in Sihanoukville.

Changes they are a coming and the better for all of us.
