Why I Refuse to Live a 'Poor' Life on a Small Retirement
I am living my solo second act in Austria. After a life of working, I’m embracing slow living and intentional spending on a small pension. This isn’t about being frugal; it’s about choosing what matters and refusing to live a "cheap" life just because the numbers are small. Hello. I live on exactly €1,229 a month in Austria, which is not cheap. In this video, I'm sharing why I refuse to live a "poor" life and what I still choose to spend my money on—like quality food and beautiful things—to maintain my freedom and dignity. My name is Claudia. This channel is called Past Halfway because I am past the half of my life. Thank you for watching.
