    "story_excerpt": "Seriously contemplating retiring in Spain or Southeast Asia in 4 years at the age 45. I have $300k saved in my taxable brokerage account and anticipate to add more to get to USD $500k. \n My 401k balance is over $550k and I anticipate it’ll grow to $2M by age 60. I’ll receive my government pension around then too.\n I just need a 15 year bridge fund of $500k that generates a conservative 4-5% return. I’m thinking USD $50k/ year in Valencia, Spain for maybe 5 years - I hold citizenship with a country which qualifies for Spain’s 2 year citizenship route. For the remaining 10 years I could stay in Spain, relocate to another EU country or in Southeast Asia or move back to the US where I have citizenship. \n Besides high Spanish taxes and visas, what else should I be considering and planning for?
