how long would 100,000GBP last in Mexico? I am a 28 yr old British

I'm not from Mexico, but avoid the parts that immediately border the US, as that's where all of the fucked up shit happens.

don't lose your head m8

6 years maybe 10 if you live simply

I think Jalisco is alright?

And if Mexican prices are like Brazil's you could probably live relatively comfortably for some 3 to 4 years on that money.

Pleast stop posting pics of this famous Pole.

3 to 4 years? Are you kidding me? I could live longer than that in this ridiculously expensive shithole.

>>66232064
Oh wait, I miscalculated. You could live comfortably for some 10 years on that money.

>>66232092

Seconding this, have a stay in Tepatitlan OP. Nice city, and I lived there for a good two months on less than one grand americana. Though I was staying and eating on my grandparents ranch so I don't know how much rent would cost. Also being a NEET loser I didn't experience the nightlife but just had a looksee and ate around places.

Women are hot though.

No, you were right meu amigo. By the time OP comes into the money, the pound will have devalued that much.

we're too fat to squat

You could probably live for around 7 to 10 years, depends on the city and your lifestyle.

Cities like San Miguel de Allende, Monterrey, Guadalajara, Cancún and Mexico city will take your money.

Check cities like Puebla, Pátzcuaro, Querétaro, Valle de Bravo.

hi, i'm from Monterrey, Mexico, stop looking, there is no best place, internet is FAST, 200MB just for about 60USD, it is close to the border so if you ever need something from usa it is just around the corner, and overall it is the most advanced city in Mexico, best universities, best all.

It depends, that comes to roughly 2,300,000 pesos, barely enough to buy a decent home in an upper middle calss area anywhere in the country, tho you might be able to get a small 2-3 bedroom apartment with 1,300,000 (Say Narvarte or Del valle in Mexico City) if you're smart/lucky on real estate. in this scenario you would have enough money to set it up (say 200, 000 pesos for moving expenses, furniture shopping, extras, a small used car, computer, even a new wardrobe if you're smart) and 200, 000 a year for the four years it takes you to start and finish a career from scratch. If you're smart you can go into UNAM (prestigious public uni, you basically pay next to nothing) and lead a reasonably comfortable student lifestyle with small trips to the beach and other vacations and drinking on the cheap with fellow students, etc. while having 4 years to adapt at the end of which you'll have a degree. It won't be near enough if you loose your ground but it's a solid middle class lifestyle.

Now, saying you're going for strict NEET routine you could probably cut down to 10, 000 pesos and live pretty cozy and comfortable provided you mostly eat home and don't spend in an extravagant fashion, eg you would still be able to buy some clothes, eat out once or twice a week at affordable places, etc. This would last you something roughly (120,000 a year times 6 = 720,000) something over 6 years, though you might spread it further depending on hiow frugal you plan to be.

This is living cheaply in an upper middle class area, a less secure living arrangement might be renting a cheap home in a little known town, you could make it a touristy one that still gets nice landscapes or even beach and internet access, you could make it as cheap as say a 5,000 peso a month rent (could be anywhere from a small room to a large house with a yard depending on the area and where you would rather live in town) so substracting 100, 000 for moving setting up CONT

don't listen to this guy, Mexico city is where all the shit goes, the only reason the city is ok is because MExico citycollects the money form all the other states as taxes and they keep the money for themselves, UNAM is a shity university, in Monterrey we have ITESM. we laugh at people at UNAM in every contest.

CONT, no car and a more spartan but still plenty comfortable set up, you would get 2, 200, 000, since living costs are a lot lower, you could even afford to eat at a small retaurant daily (comida corrida) and bring it down to say 7,000 pesos a month (still plenty comfortable) wich makes 12, 000 with rent, that's 144,000 living expenses a year for a good fifteen years (2,160,000) which might give you enough time to either save up through some frugal months or small odd jobs to reach your target 20, so it is doable provided you can adapt to things like say maybe move out if the place you've chosen has become too gentrified, etc. Small nameless towns in Veracruz, Chiapas, Tlaxcala, Hidalgo, Yucatán or Baja California Sur ould afford you this lifestyle in everything from forests to jungles, the real problem perhaps being you may have to invest a bit on getting a nominal job so you can stay legal and use universal healthcare. Doable but you would need smarts and a bit of luvk not to have to work for a living or spend half your money in the first few learning curve years. Still, you may want to leave yourself an out as you don't want to end up middle aged and with no options, maybe learn a couple of jobs on the internet in the meantime, or teach English a couple of days a week wherever you're moving.

Yeah, I was doing a reasonable thought exercise, UNAM is pretty good and top ten when it comes to any rankings for Latin America, and unlike ITESm it's free, how much is a semester going for in your option, do you even know? Mexico city is the largest GDP of any entity and a lot better quality of life than Monterrey, for one you don't need a car if you live in the south/downtown, Monterrey is overrated when it comes to living standards and it's a lot harder place for a foreigner to fit in, there's something like half a million Americans in mexico City for a reason, and these aren't old pensioners as everywhere else.

Seriopusly, if you're going to go "don't listen to this guy" at least offer viable options, ITESM isn't one for someone looking to stretch their money.
