I know it gets a lot of flack here (and not without justification), but if you're serious about geo-arbitrage, Tim Ferris's "Four Hour Work Week" has some good stuff in it.
My wife and I sort of did this. We owned a great house near the beach in California and had "regular" jobs. We moved to the mountains in central Arizona (Sedona), she stopped working and I write and do some software development work.
The trick was cutting expenses: less expensive area to live, bought a much smaller (and well insulated) home, and get our joy not from buying material crap but rather from cooking, hiking, hanging with friends and family.
It is all about deciding what is important to you in life.

An article on living and working abroad by someone who has done neither. I would be delighted to see him take his own advice and write a follow-up post about just how much fun it is to try to live in Thailand as a high-definition podcaster.

There are some activities that cannot be done from "anywhere in the world" for an extended period of time. Not even Bill Gates can do this. Try to be a pilot, a surgeon, or even a "normal" entrepreneur and you'll see that it doesn't work.
