3 months in Czech republic for 2k month. 3 months back to my condo in vegas or somewhere outside the Schengen that's even cheaper. . Then back to CR . If you can spend less than 25k in a year, you can stay and travel amazing places in Europe and nearby.

Thailand has gotten significantly more expensive over the last several years. It’s become such a popular destination and there’s so many people there full-time from Russia and the Ukraine now.

Now more countries are requiring biometrics instead of a passport- as if ‘the authorities’ are the safe individuals to have with those details.

A lot of these countries have changed their rules recently, and doing this is now a lot harder. Also, if you "deposit" serious money in places like Indonesia (hugely corrupt government) or Dubai, don't expect to see it again. This happened to a friend who was a Dubai resident for years, when he wanted to leave and close his HSBC account with 40k in it they refused to give the money to him and there was nothing he could do, because everything is government run and they're hugely corrupt.

I've had residency in Mexico for 16 years now and for the last several years I've lived here full time so I'm now eligible for citizenship. The trouble is that if I become a citizen there is a rule that if I leave the country for 5 consecutive years they could theoretically revoke my citizenship. Whereas, if I stay a permanent resident I can leave for as long as I want and they just say 'bienvenido, señor' when I return. Unless I decide to renounce my US citizenship, I plan on just keeping my residency.
