I want to move to South America or Southeast Asia. I make money online which puts me below minimum wage in the 1st world, but if I lived somewhere cheaper and less developed, it would make me middle class. As long as I have access to paypal I can make that money anywhere on the planet. All of a sudden I'd be able to afford rent without supplementing my income while continuing to do what I love. I have no personal relationships I would destroy by moving away, having zero IRL friends and no partner (separated), just parents. Obviously I want a country that occupies a good "sweet spot", not a totally unstable shithole and not any place that is currently or might soon be involved with an international conflict. Let's say "second world" would suit me just fine. How do I figure out which country I should focus on to try and migrate to within the next few years?
How do you make money? I want to do what you want to do but I don't have an online income. I would move to brazil
>>34763305What about Japan If your makes money in dollars then its will be much in yen

>>34764104>>34763366Shit, forgot to ask. Why Brazil? Some parts have really bad crime, there's fuckass big spiders and the political situation is looking grim.
>>34763366>>34764123Brazilian here. Don't do it. It's a really big country, but mostly a shithole. Go to Europe.
>>34764231Europe is where I'm trying to get away from. Cost of living is out of control. In the past I might have gone to one of the slavic countries but the threat of war makes that a no-go for me.
>>34764246>Cost of living is out of control. Well, that seems to be an international phenomenon. The common man is struggling to get by as multiple economies get worse, wages are basically useless and the fact that jobs are just sanctioned slavery is becoming more obvious. I think you should save as much money as possible and study what country will be the least miserable to live in by, let's say, 2030. Keep your eyes on the news, and learn new languages in your free time, Chinese probably, since they're just waiting for the west to collapse.
>>34764307Are there any nations in South America that aren't shitholes? Second rather than third world. Argentina? Uruguay? Chile?
>>34763305Since you’re talking about the "Second World," I think the best option in Latin America is Chile—it’s the "Switzerland" of the region—but be careful: the capital, Santiago, is very dangerous.If you move to Brazil, know that with 1000 BRL (or more), you can live in a good neighborhood in a decent location. If you decide to go to Rio de Janeiro, neighborhoods like Meier, Grajaú, Andaraí, Vila Isabel, Tijuca, Centro, Bonsucesso, Penha, Madureira, and others are good options. You might also consider living in Glória, Catete, Laranjeiras, or Gávea, though these areas are more expensive. When shopping for groceries, go to Supermercado Guanabara; places like the Feirinha da Pavuna , CEASA, and CADEG aren't suitable for a foreigner who doesn't speak Portuguese.
>>34764594>advising a foreigner to live in the one city that's basically entirely owned by a criminal organizationSilly. Chile is a good idea though.
>>34764594Thanks for the indepth explanation. I was interested in Chile already for some reason. Someplace down south seems similar in climate to Europe so it's not that much of a shock. I hear German is spoken there quite a lot but sadly that's not my native tongue - but I'm better at German than Spanish, should I try to get good at German or just focus on Spanish instead?
>>34764123Because It's a such a fun country, I've been there before and maybe I would get sick of it after a while but I would love to try. The crime is only bad in select areas. It's a big problem there but if you don't do anything stupid you will most likely be fine. Some places far in the south are as safe as it gets. As for the spiders I didn't come across any big scary ones. I think that's more a thing closer to the amazon.And also brazilian girls are extremely attractive and also into me so that's a big reason why.
>>34766314I did bag a Brazilian girl and while she was a huge pothead who got annoying eventually she was a good lay. Much younger than me. Wouldn't mind trying that again. And yeah, it's a huge party culture, very open which is pretty much the opposite of the protestant culture I grew up in.
>>34765577If you decide to go to Chile, you should learn Spanish; you don't need to know everything, but you should know a few phrases, such as:>sorry, I don't speak Spanish>where is the subway station?>i'm a foreigner; I don't know the city
