probably the best place to be an alcoholic.

If you mean that all these meth-addicted women will look so beautiful that you'll forget to put a condom, you might be right.
But when your body will say "'enough", you might want to check-in in a responsible & affordable healthcare facility, and that's not around the corner.

From what I understand neither is it around the corner in the USA

That's unfortunate, and very weird for us Frogs, that such a country neglected this crucial aspect of life.

I have a reminiscent memory of a bunch of old Frogs freshly arrived sipping beers and talking loudly about their prospects of "eating pussy"etc at Disaster Central (Surya), i wonder how it worked, viagra-&-strokes-wise. Pretty sure they weren't taking all the parameters in mind, such as late ambulances & free-flow of counterfeit stimulants of various forms, scams & scum....Oh, and that virus thing since...so yeah, there is a clear concern with retirement far far away when entering a certain age...I wonder how long they lasted, didn't spot much in the RIP threads, so far...probably went home empty on all accounts, worn out.

Which leads me to another point : don't retire in SE Asia if you can only barely afford to go back home if unwell, unless your plan is a i-will-die-there-just-a-one-way-ticket-please, of course....Which isn't always the cream of expats.
The current social vibe + the current temperature in the homeland would probably finish them.

The few times i was there for a drink, alone as an observer, were much more instructive when pretending not to understand surrounding discussions...which were pretty much what i thought they would be.
