$2,000/Month in Panama Gets You THIS Much

Can you really live in Panama on $2,000 a month?

In this episode of The Panama Podcast: From Dreaming to Doing, I break down the real cost of living in Panama for a retired American couple living on Social Security. If you’ve been wondering whether you can afford to retire abroad—or if your retirement income will go further outside the U.S.—this video gives you a clear, honest look at the numbers.

We cover a complete $2,000/month Panama budget, including:
✔ HOA and housing costs (mortgage-free living)
✔ Property taxes and insurance in Panama
✔ Utilities, groceries, and transportation
✔ Healthcare costs in Panama for expats
✔ Dining out, entertainment, and lifestyle
✔ Emergency travel fund back to the U.S.

You’ll also see a powerful comparison of $2,000 in the United States vs $2,000 in Panama, and why so many retirees are choosing Panama as their Plan B for a more affordable, enjoyable lifestyle.

This video is part of a series where I break down what it really costs to live in Panama at different budget levels:
👉 $2K, $4K, and $6K per month
