Almost bought a vacation home in Mexico during Covid when a lot of Canadians were selling because of their stricter travel requirements. I was too afraid to pull the trigger then, but I wish I would have.

I travel there multiple times a year, and even spent a week in September having dental work for a fraction of the price I was quoted in the US (8k vs. 33k). After that amazing experience, and yesterday's outcome, which will have a significant impact on my full-time job, I am seriously considering moving to Mexico full time as soon as I am able. My father is in his mid-80s, and my MIL just turned 90. I don't expect either of them to be around much longer. They are the only things keeping me here. I can work my side job from anywhere, and my passive income will be enough to sustain me there.
