My name is Charlie Corby (formally, Charles E. Corby III) and I live in Costa Rica.
For about 25 years I worked as an emergency medical provider (starting as an Emergency Medical Technician and rounding out my career as a Paramedic) and am now retired in San Joaquin de Flores en la Provincia de Heredia en Costa Rica.
This country is a BEAUTIFUL place in which to live. The cost of living allows me to live very comfortably on a fixed income.
To give you some insight about what I mean by "comfortably," let me tell you what I did in the States to support the same kind of lifestyle.
Job #1
I worked 40 hours a week as a Paramedic at Muhlenberg Regional Medical Center in Plainfield, New Jersey
Job #2
I worked 40 hours a week as the Lead Instructor at the EMS Academy (A Division of the Saint Barnabas Healthcare System) in Union, New Jersey
Job #3
I worked about 10 hours a week as a Park Ranger/EMT for the National Park Service at the Statue of Liberty on the Hudson River.
Job #4
I worked about 10 hours a week as the Lead Instructor for the Advanced Cardiac Life Support Training Center at Atlantic Health Care, Overlook Hospital Campus, in Summit, New Jersey.
NOW, I manage a warehouse for a company that acts as 'agent,' for people coming to Costa Rica, and my lifestyle is every bit a full as it was in the States. If you're getting ready to retire, think about Costa Rica. If you need some help from this end, contact me by e-mail: charlie@cecorby.com
