So how real is the fantasy of getting a remote job and moving to a place where the cost of living is low?
>>2921573i've got a remote jobi moved to a place with a much lower cost of living than my home countryso yeah it's realnow post more pics of black girls with long shiny legs
depends entirely on what you're good at and who you can network with. some people are just in the wrong business, some people have it relatively easy. it's getting harder
If you can't get a remote job while in your current situation or living space, you ain't going to make it living in a low cost of living area.I moved from west coast to the midwest, 80% lower CoL it was fine then my boss basically said he didn't care where I worked. I just hop overseas for 3-6 months then come back. I could do 100% overseas but realistically when I tried it wasn't the best. Not having a home base to have something as a reference makes my time in Asia or Europe just start to blur together and I end up just slacking at my airbnb after a while and it felt like a waste of cash. Remote jobs are getting a lot more sparse especially with AI and a job market where it's an Employers advantage vs and employee's advantage. Lots of companies realizing productivity suffers when room temp seat warmers aren't in the office and monitoring SW costs a lot.
If you have to ask the chances approach zero
>>2921580Don't listen to this guy. I just watched the YouTube video that said I could learn video editing in 3 months using AI because AI has collapsed the knowledge Gap and I can learn a skill that used to take 4 years in 3 weeks!
>>2921573>no time to find a good deal on accommodation so you live in an overpriced airbnb, same cost as home country>no time to learn the local language so you are forced into the globohomo reddit bubble>no time to pick up chicks so you are an incel>40+ hours a week in the portable wagecage>competing in the job market against jeets and chinks who make $2 an hour so your wages are shitwfhcucks are loser wagies and there's nothing enviable about their station in life

>>2921654>i'm a retard and everything you said is dead onok, thanks i guess.
>>2921573i got a remote job 5 years ago with flexible hours. instead of moving away like i should have, i chose to go to college in order to make myself a more valuable employee and safe guard my new comfy remote job. a year after graduating i was laid off due to AI. im now desperately job hunting while still living in the same shithole and am not established in any interesting country whatsoever.in other words, i don't think it's possible anymore.
>>2921611you stupid fuckers really have some weird beliefs about what people actually do in the real world>>no time to find a good deal on accommodation so you live in an overpriced airbnb, same cost as home countryfinding places to rent long term or buy is easy. even if you can't be bothered to do it yourself there are also letting agents and so on who will find a place for you, for a fee of course>>no time to learn the local language so you are forced into the globohomo reddit bubblewhat exactly is the "globohomo reddit bubble"? what on earth are you even yapping on about>>no time to pick up chicks so you are an inceli dunno maybe you could try not being quite so desperate? even so in most countries meeting people works in pretty much the same way>>40+ hours a week in the portable wagecageif you are working a remote job then your hours will be pretty much the same as they would be at home. personally i'm a contractor and i usually have a couple of projects on the go at any time so i do sometimes work long hours but generally i get to decide what i do>>competing in the job market against jeets and chinks who make $2 an hour so your wages are shitmaybe if you are a day labourer working in construction or something. if you are working a remote job your salary, t&cs etc is set by your home country and you are not competing against the local workforce>wfhcucks are loser wagies and there's nothing enviable about their station in lifetheir station in life seems to be right in front of your mind
>>2921695Incel losers say nothing is possible except failure. They hate white men of action who own the world
I've worked remote since before covid it's very real but the idea that you can get one first and move to Thailand is highly unlikely in reality very few workplaces will let you legally move overseas, many bs through it and some companies turn a blind eye but in general you'll get caught or at least they'll know and can fire you on the spot if they feel it, some managers like that. The only reliable way is to own your own business and be independent of a boss but you wouldn't be asking if you were already in that situation
>>2921654While I'll agree with the skill issue thing man I'm paying $600 a month in Taipei which is actually first world unlike that shithole
>>2921675You got a WFH job and did college full time? How did that work?
>>2921704>How did that work? i was allowed to work any hours i wanted (so long as i did at least 30/week). i would go to school during the day and work at night.
>>2921695>finding places to rent long term or buy is easy. even if you can't be bothered to do it yourself there are also letting agents and so on who will find a place for you, for a fee of coursepost your findings so we can laugh at you. like the other clown paying NYC prices to live in the Philippines.>what exactly is the "globohomo reddit bubble"? what on earth are you even yapping on aboutboomer retard>i dunno maybe you could try not being quite so desperate? even so in most countries meeting people works in pretty much the same wayyou uptalk like a bitch even on 4chan>if you are working a remote job then your hours will be pretty much the same as they would be at home.that's my point, jewish daycare is jewish daycare.>if you are working a remote job your salary, t&cs etc is set by your home country and you are not competing against the local workforcethey are hiring jeet contractors and consultants to lower costs all the time>their station in life seems to be right in front of your mindhurrdurr you read the thread HA>>2921696Golem losers say nothing is possible except jewish daycare. They hate white men of action who own the world.
>>2921720>like the other clown paying NYC prices to live in the Philippines.There is a post ITT of a full condo in a highrise with a view and utilities for <725/mo, if you think that's "nyc" pricing you're retarded or just woken from a 25 year coma.I'd love to see the shithole rat den you're living in NYC for under 725/mo that isn't some 85 sq ft closet carved out by some retarded unlicensed landlord.
>>2921735>muh viewboomers seething
>>2921736Still waiting for where you get a decent condo to yourself for 725/mo in NYC with utilities included
>>2921739paying 725 for anything in manila is retarded. the whole building is probably worth that much
>>2921740K, still not the point. Glad to see you have nothing useful or relevant to say
>>2921720>post your findings so we can laugh at youi own two houses anon, i don't need to post any findings. however if you are really interested there are websites like mudah.my here in malaysia that have a wide range of property to rent or buy, you could start there. i am sure other countries have equivalents>everything i don't like is "boomer"4chan is 18+the rest of your post is basically nonsense. have a good day anon

>>2921720>ITS DA JOOZ >ITS DA BOOMERSThese are the people who are NGMI and are on a slow spiral downward to a life of misery. There are things that other groups objectively fucked up for people but for the most part as long as you aren't trying to constantly live beyond your means following each latest $trend, it's actually fairly easy to pay off debt and save for a house if you don't mind hermit mode for 2ish years.Living abroad is a whole beast in and of itself, but OP is just asking about moving to a lower cost of living area. If you're in the USA you can snag a <700/mo 1br place over by capitol hill, a okay-ish part of san hambonio, no income tax and cheap living, and a good population of women even brown ones! like your SA/SEA adventures! It's doable to amass enough for a down payment on a house in TX and then have a safetynet still to spare. Just takes some time and willing to budget.>>2921746If you are trying to save dosh Malaysia is probably the best place to go for that, KL has full condos for like 500/mo, long visa plans, and the city is so fucking boring you'll be just working out daily to pass the time.

Its your job as a man to to overcome obstacles. Blaming others makes you a loser. Once you take responsibility for your life its relatively easy to get rich over a few years.It starts with believing " everything that happens to me is my fault, only I can fix it"
>>2921698nta, but I would really appreciate if you could let me know where I can find good apartments/spots for around that price range in Taipei. I'm planning on going there soon (just got my 3yr gold card visa)
