Is moving to U S A perhaps a better option? I doubt that they would be able to live and work in Portugal ,or want to? I presume you have made arrangements for any eventuality.What are you future plans?Idea? Perhaps sell the property, but with life rights, and split profits with buyer, even that they stay while you travel? Would be less of a headache for your family.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5650690084573324316.post-12588557573733028022024-02-28T12:45:55.386+03:002024-02-28T12:45:55.386+03:00Given your age and the illnesses you already have,...Given your age and the illnesses you already have, I think you would be better off with a small house and a bigger yard. There you could practice a bit of vegetable farming, have a few chicks and a dog instead of raising piglets every year, most of which die anyway. This is not a pig farm, but a PR campaign to raise money to the detriment of many animals and, in fact, people. Because in your eyes, friends are only the people who allow themselves to be exploited by you, as I have understood so far.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5650690084573324316.post-3970086659761912912024-02-28T11:08:31.095+03:002024-02-28T11:08:31.095+03:00Beat advice ever x praying that day will come for ...Beat advice ever x praying that day will come for you when you can just chill on your lovely farm🩷Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5650690084573324316.post-43661598237770539262024-02-27T23:41:09.780+03:002024-02-27T23:41:09.780+03:00Sorry to read your life story, if thanks for shari...Sorry to read your life story, if thanks for sharing ...

Its like paying future self first before sorting out your present self.If you put in a good low cost investment index fund you will be surprised at how much it has grown in 5, then 10 years time when you really have much less energy to work. Bank interest won't do it for you. I am so surprised to see how much one of my funds that I opened at the start of the pandemic has grown with just adding small amounts consistently and watching the magic of compounding. You CAN do it too.

It's from back in the days of early trading/ the voyages of discovery, when everything was a negotiation (having a word, a "palavra").

I have however been in abusive relationships both physical and mental, so that part I get. I lost such a lot through it all and It took a long time for me to find my inner voice and say enough is enough the trauma it's leaves is of self hate, worthlessness, regrets, loss, sadness etc etc etc, but it has made me stronger, it has taught me valuable lessons and changed my perspective.
