She’s 63 and living by the beach in Mexico on $1,000 a month: ‘I can’t imagine living in the U.S. again’ :
“It’s a very different vibe here that’s kind of hard to explain. It’s
not about being retired, because I wasn’t that until a year ago. It’s
just a different understanding of what’s important in life, and a more
relaxed live-and-let-live attitude. If something doesn’t get done today
— there’s always tomorrow, or the next day. What’s the big deal?,” she
explains.
Tomorrow you will live, you always cry,
In what far country doth this morrow lie?
That 'tis so mighty long e'er it arrive:
Beyond the Indies does this morrow live?
'Tis so far-fetch'd this morrow, that I fear
'Twill be both very old, and very dear.
Tomorrow will I live, the fool does say,
Today itself's too late, the wise liv'd yesterday.
-- Abraham Cowley (1618-1667)
