>How long is a piece of string?
About 1-8 inches, anything shorter is a bit of string, and anything longer is a length of string.

>Have you been to a lot of these countries?
No, but my uncle married a Serbian woman, so I met some of her family, and as a leaf I've run into a wide variety of eastern europeans in my life just growing up, not to mention we live in the internet age and there's plenty of candid pictures/videos of real people in those places.
>There are a few that have golden visa programs or similar.
Yeah from what I've seen it's all insanely expensive at $250k+ and a lot have been shut down or more heavily restricted.
I'm looking for early retirement as well, and that extra cost would set me back a few more years working.
Now that I think about it, it's probably easier just do a tourist visa and spend the time dating until I found wife material and go from there.
