Stop Dreaming, Start Planning

Your step-by-step GeoPension-informed roadmap to a successful and affordable retirement abroad

Turn overwhelm into a clear plan—using a city-by-city framework that helps your retirement income go farther, without guesswork.

Does This Sound Familiar?

You want a retirement where your money goes further—and the days feel lighter. But when you try to plan it, the excitement turns into overwhelm. GeoPension™ is the framework I use to turn that overwhelm into a city-by-city plan you can actually execute.

Information Overload: You're drowning in a sea of conflicting online advice, out-of-date forums, and confusing government websites. GeoPension gives you one clear decision framework.
Fear of the Unknown: Can you really navigate a foreign healthcare system? Is it safe? What if you get the visa paperwork wrong? And how do you validate healthcare, neighborhoods, and safety before you commit?
Analysis Paralysis: You've spent countless hours researching, but you're no closer to a decision, afraid of making a costly mistake, because you don’t have a repeatable way to compare cities. This course gives you that system.

What if you could trade that confusion and anxiety for a clear, confident path forward?

Introducing: Mastering Affordable Retirement Abroad

A GeoPension-informed system for choosing the right city, building your numbers, and making the move with confidence

This is a step-by-step course built around a simple idea: people don’t retire to “countries”—they retire to specific cities and neighborhoods. You’ll use the GeoPension framework to compare destinations, estimate real costs, avoid expensive mistakes, and build a clear action plan—from early research through your first 90 days on the ground.

Meet Your Instructor, William Hare

A rare combination: 30+ years in finance,12+ years living in affordable countries and creator of the GeoPension framework

For over 30 years, I navigated the world of high finance. But my most valuable lessons didn’t come from a boardroom—they came from living for more than a dozen years in the very same affordable countries you’re dreaming about.

I created this course because you deserve guidance from someone who has mastered both sides of the equation: the complex financial realities facing American retirees and the on-the-ground, real-world challenges of moving and living abroad in affordable countries. I’ve seen friends and family struggle with limited options, and I made it my mission to build the resource I wish they had. GeoPension is the planning framework I wish existed when I started—because it turns “where should I retire?” into a structured, city-by-city decision.

I even learned Spanish from scratch in my late 40’s, so when I talk about having a ‘growth mindset,’ it’s not just a theory—it’s how I live. I’ve poured all of that knowledge and experience into this course to ensure you succeed.
