"As a retired couple (late 60's), we're considering a move to Portugal. Although we realize many in the country speak English, we're starting 2022 by studying Portugese in the hope of visiting there this year. Obviously, we're just at the very beginning of our possible journey, and we look forward to seeing feedback on this site, and possibly interaction with some of you as time grows closer for a visit to Portugal." - Retiredohioduo

"I use a major U.S. brokerage company to hold my coin. I also use a U.S. Mail scanning company to scan and email my mail. For over 3 years now, I have been depositing checks via the U.S. brokerage company's "Mobile deposit" feature that allows me to deposit my check by taking a picture of it with my cell phone. It makes life so much easier. But, the big attraction that I just re-lived again today is: Depositing a check that was scanned and then printed. It's not the original check, but it works like a charm. I just print it out and cut off the excess paper down to what the size of a check is and snap a pic front and back and voila'. Deposit made." - Wallvestor

"I am a single, 66 year old retired man from the USA. I have both a pension and social security, so I would not be interested in working. My total income would be around $2300 usd a month. Would this be sufficient to live a comfortable life in Portugal? My needs are pretty basic. A nice apartment in a nice area with all the basics. Would this be doable? Also; I have heard that it's pretty difficult for non EU citizens to gain residency. How tough as an American would it be to do this? Thanks for your help. John" - bluewind
