Many years ago I used to go on family holidays to Spain and suchlike. We were a middle class family and it was noticeable that we were a lot better off than the locals.

Nowadays things have changed, wherever I go I don't feel very well off at all.

I don't mean in places like Bangladesh or Rwanda, what i mean is where can i go where i can live a comparable life to here in the UK but on a significantly lower salary.

As an example, 20 years ago i first went to Florida, meals out were cheap, accomodation was cheap, clothes were cheap and that isn't the case now.

Where do I need to go?

Thanks all.

South Africa looks a good shout.

I wasn't thinking particularly for a holiday, more a place to live and work.

Somewhere that a decent salary went a lot further than here and yes, I agree there are definitely towns in the UK where that's the case too.
