Not sure about SSI, but with SSDI no red flags. You can live anywhere you damn well please, travel to your hearts content, etc.

Just because you are
"disabled" does not mean you cannot move, travel, etc.
What most people do not realize is that when it comes to SSDI, millionaires & billionaires (who've had a real job during their lifetime)
ARE ENTITLED TO & can collect SSDI if they ever become disabled.
