[EvanL]

The BC Interior. Preferably the Fraser Canyon area.

[Chuckie]

Retire, most people here haven't even started working yet.

When I retire I want to live in the woods, possibly surrounded by a small moat.

[Hellfish]

A little hut in Copper Canyon, Mexico. With some tequila, a shotgun and some dogs.

Somewhere warm, probably near the coast.

[EvanL]

All you pussies wanting to live where it's warm!
Bah! The cold is what keeps you young!

[Uncle Sam]

Tahiti....

[EvanL]

Mojito!.....

[goldman]

Either in Rocky Mountains or Australian Outback!

Wait till you get arthritis, cracker jack. Florida isn't filled with old folks because of the charming locals or vibrant cultural scene.

The cold hurts my knuckles on my right hand because I have some joint damage from boxing. I can tell when its going to rain sometimes. I think the cold makes mine feel better when it acts up.

I don't know. I see a lot of ripe old healthy folks up in northern woods Wisconsin.
Besides, going to Florida opens you up to the big cancer-machine of the sky aka the Sun. Plus, those hurricanes are just one huge hassle.

Its nice and peaceful up in the mountains and countryside. Besides, there is no such thing as cold weather, just bad clothing

[MBG]

Dubrovnik

[Apathy]

A quiet place.

[Hellfish]

I like Mexicans, hence I want to retire in Mexico. The Copper Canyon is just icing.

[Aerosoul]

i think i'd have a tough time retiring to a quiet place.
i'd love to have a place like CJ to go when I wanted, but I need to be doing something most of the time...

[Kingswat]

I would like to kinda be deep in the mountains in Alaska maybe, or own my own 2mile wide island.

Definately somewhere in Australia, either where I am right now (Victoria), the outback or up north in Darwin.

You could always go up to Darwin and do something really dumbarsed that ends up getting you killed, and sort of live up to the name.

[Opening Batsman]

Yeah, there are any number of fun things to do there as well. Wrestle a crocodile, die of thirst, piss off a drunk local, box a kangaroo, get eaten by a shark, get eaten by a jellyfish, get eaten by a touring Canadian, etc.

Oh come on, a true cannibal would eat me raw and stick my head on a pole outside his cave after eating my brains to inherit my awesome brain power.

[BoyElroy]

One word:

"Pirates!"

[Cecinator]

The Azores. Weather is good all year round except for rain, and the occasional hurricane/tropical storm that commes a little close. But then theirs earthquakes and stuff but, that just makes it more fun.

If i was rich enough to own a place like that you can be damn sure it would be well defended.

[BoyElroy]

Look at that veranda. It's un-defensible!

[dunkin]

Any where I can ski (water and down hill).

[Hellfish]

Hahaha... I think thats the funniest thing you've ever said here. You earned yourself a cookie for that one. p-)

Not to ruin anything, but what happens to all the sewage in a place like this? I doubt there's a septic tank under that hut and there can't be many if any pipes there?

Yes, and if not there will be Jeudah.

But I'm not sure there will be enough place to have my own hill.

The World Islands (http://realestate.theemiratesnetwork.com/developments/dubai/video/world.mov) in Dubai, custom made islands to resemble the Earth. (Not yet done, but should be once I'm retired)

I'll probably aim for Southern-France, Italy or Spain though as The World Islands are intended for billionaires and I'm only aiming to become a millionaire. :|
