Can I retire in Cuba?

you can live in guatemala on that. no problem.

You should be able too. I'm starting to look at that as well. I know groceries are around Canadian prices in the stores. My wife is from Havana, so that is were I mostly go. Taxis can add up if you're not careful. When we have a bunch of running around to do, you can drop $40 CUC easy. You can find places to live for a few hundred a month. Restaurants range in price a lot. Dinner for 2 in a nice place ranges from $20-$70 CUC. I have more research to do on the day to day.

IMO 1400 would be the very min. as Cuba is $$$ for Yumas... I just spent a few months there and my biggest costs by far was transportation as I moved around island.. I was lucky to go on a few Astros buses as a Cuban which I'm clearly not but a lot things can be done with a few cucs as regulars to island know.

  My thinking for next trip is to buy a electric scooter that they sell all over Havana for 1000 cuc with 5 batteries  as I tried it out and was able to go 90 kilometers on full charge ..

  If i was single I might be able to do it on 1400.00 but when in a relationship with a Cuban 1400.00 will not be enough as they can't help with restaurant and transportation cost for obvious reasons ..
