Join me live in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia September 25-28, 2024 as I join the Nomad Capitalist LIVE event. Click here for additional information: nomadcapitalist.com/live/
Good morning Cyrus...greetings from Costa Rica. What your doing is sooo important...as most Americans never even get a passport. Their born on the state plantation...& see nothing beyond the fences. With 36 yrs. of having left the USA ... I never regretted the move. Not only good health...security...& adventure...but ""prosperity"" over what I could ever had obtained back home. I have lived in Japan...Columbia...and Ecuador ... but nothing comes close to Costa Rica. Thanks again brother.
US citizen here, 62 years old. Living in America is exhausting. Everything is war. War overseas, cold war, trade war, culture war, war on this, war on that. War forever. There has to be a better way than this.
American society is fake and superficial. If you're poor people look down on you and treat you like crap. You get no real love in this system. It's all fake and phony. People only want to like you and be friends with you when you have money or connections to money and power. And when you don't have it anymore they leave you abandon you. It's a very fake materialistic culture thats full of self centered people. Finding real genuine friends here is very hard. 😢😮
I’m Irish retired in Thailand and I absolutely despise American geopolitics aka coups, sanctions, military invasions, nefarious CIA plots, etc. etc. The rest of the world has lost all respect for USA in recent decades.
Have you tried not repeating the excuses for these geopolitical actions? It's always "yes I agree that Assad or whoever is bad but..." At that point you're still agreeing to a war.
Don't blame average Americans, we just want to get along in peace and prosperity with everyone else. The Globalist Elites who control the foreign policy of both Major Parties are the war mongers, not the American people. Trump kept the Elites under some semblance of control, it's the main reason they HATE him and are using all their tools to prevent his reelection. Trump has a BIG MOUTH, but he kept America out of overseas wars and struck good trade agreements with China, Japan, Mexico and many other nations.
This, and that the 2 parties do not really reflect what most people value, but we are seemingly stuck with them. Taken to extremes, which happens when either one of the 2 parties have any bit of power, they both lead to moralistic tyrannies, either the Woke Leftists with their dogma, or the religious evangelicalism associated with the Right. Better would be something closer to libertarian and classical liberal ideals which actually promote freedom instead, but we are stuck with Dems and Reps, and special interests who are actually running the show. Also less interests that favor and interfere with other countries and instead invest locally would be better. I know most Americans do not feel like they are represented by their representatives. Politics, politicians, and government are ruining the US now.
@@darksavior1187 both those parties are right wing, 1 is just culturally progressive while the other is conservative hence this is practically a 1 party state.
The problem with the “American Dream” is that it’s too expensive to get, too expensive to keep, and you have to always worry about your own government stealing it from you.🎬
The houses are not going up in price, the money is going down in value. As for the criminals running the USA, they are making the US a third world country.
Don't worry mate,just before the end,the usa congress will realise.That money for all is economy that is moving on,and that money for few,is revolutionary fuse.
@@jeffs4483 nah, I’ve lived in a 3rd world country. Sounds like you need to go and experience the world if you think it’s hell here. People who have never left their bubble do tend to complain the most as having the worst country. I see that in every country, not just Americans.
had a filling one third the size of a dime it was +$400.... recently saw that I can straighten my whole teeth for $700 in vietnam, they quoted me $6k here in socal.....
@@TheyRiseBand yes they do and now México is deporting them. México needs a more secure border and a way to keep track of people who visit México. Maybe a microchip or something
As a millennial I think about leaving the USA every day. I also accept that there are tradeoffs in doing so, but the US is turning into an unlivable place for many reasons, even if you have money.
Due to some horrible experiences living in the U.S., I ended up being slightly ahead in the game. My disgust with the U.S. hit it's boiling point years ago. As soon as I turned 66 and started getting my Social Security, I got a passport and started figuring out where I was going to go. I'm now in Ecuador. I pay $350 a month for a place that would cost nearly $3000 a month in the U.S. Perfect weather too. In the U.S. I was suffering with high blood pressure. No more! Even my eye floaters cleared up. Beautiful country.
@@maya8627 I'm new here and can't really tell you a lot about Ecuador as a whole. I'm in the small town of Vilcabamba in the province of Loja. It's a lot different than living in Michigan. When it comes to your health, can you really put a price on that?
I'm Gen X, and I've been trying to move abroad for decades. I finally decided that I'll have to wait until retirement to do so (Another ten years) since I'm neither a nurse, engineer, nor independently wealthy. Same deal for several friends. Between the crumbling infrastructure, poisoned water, crap education, ugly architecture, and toxic culture, there's little for any of us here anymore.
The future for Iran is looking much better now as it partners with Russia and China. It wouldn’t surprise me to see Iranians moving back to take advantage of good opportunities, like Chinese are moving back to China.
Toronto, where you're told to leave your car keys outside so thiefs can steal it ,because if they break into your house and get hurt, they can sue you? Lol
@@sg5720 Toronto is not Canada; it is in Canada… there is a difference. Other parts of the country are not only safe but pleasant as long as you accept that most of it has a continental climate (like the Russian Federation) but have socialized medicine inter alia. I live in Victoria BC and would live few other places most of the year. However, Canada is not immune to nutcase ideas on socio-economic issues as we share history and a long border with the US - the source of most of these metaphysical flights of fancy. If you are a world citizen it matters little where you live but the US and the UK are not recommended as permanent residences unless you are ultra wealthy (greater than 20 million US dollars) and have strong family commitments in North America or age-related infirmities.
I spemnt 3 years in Toronto, 1999-2002, moved to the US. Now leave the US...no life here, even with money. I agree with your friend, I would leave Canada too.... No way there,
From 1988 onward, America has been in a slide downward. Trump's 4 years tried to restrain the war mongers, it's one of the reasons they hate him so much. The rest of them-Bush Sr. Clinton, Bush Jr., Obama, Biden are all puppets controlled by Globalist Eiltes.
In coming 100 years, you will see a reverse immigration. This time, it will be the people from the west migrating out of there to live in places like Gulf region (UAE, Saudi, Oman, Bahrain, Kuwait, etc.), SE Asia (Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, etc.), Morocco, South Africa and Turkey. These countries have better law and order, better healthcare conditions, a good birth ratio, and an overall pleasant living environment. Language will not be an issue because English is spoken as a 2nd language in all metropolitan cities of these countries. Countries with most outward migration in the west will be 1) the UK, 2) France, 3) Germany, 4) Canada and 5) the US.
I would say it's ... 5. Medical industrial complex 6. Weapon industrial complex 7. Food industrial complex 8. Special interest group aka lobbyists 9. Major political donors 10. Average American voters
An Author can't remember his name wrote "America will be destroyed from within not her enemies" and here we are , I wish I still had that book didn't finish reading it my nephew borrowed it and I never got it back .
My grandma moved there a few years back, and when she came to visit us, she was appalled at how expensive everything was here. She tried to buy me a crate of strawberries (thanks Grandma, ily) and her jaw dropped when she heard the price. I don't remember what the price was, but I believe it was around double what she expected it to be. Her funds for her trip to America got drained so fast. Hoping I can visit her in Scotland someday!
Went to the UK and almost every neighborhood there looks like ran down section 8 housing, Very surprised on how much poverty the Uk has, feels like a 3rd world country there
The downfall started with George Bush Sr. and his Globalist/Elitist advisors. From that point, with the single exception of 4 years under Donald Trump, the Globalist Elites have controlled America almost entirely. Clinton, W. Bush, Obama, Biden-all puppets.
killed in 1975... when US wages (Factored for inflation) stopped growing and US household with children could no longer be maintained on a single income. But on the plus side, if you are part of the top 0.1%, the American dream never ended. People here are now making more money that they can possibly spend... so much so they are draining the economy of sensible things to invest in.
I left 33 years ago for Europe and never looked back. America was a great country back in the 50s and the 80s for me. I just go back every year to visit family only. Let's face it. America's motto: You're guilty until rich''.
and go where? Europe has no energy and needs to import it. It's getting more expensive than the USA to live on top of their economies crumbling. China can't feed itself. Dubai can't grow enough food and doesn't even have a sewer system. Latin America has higher crime rates and worse job prospects. Most of Asia has no oil or natural gas and is in the same boat as china. Plus they have more elderly populations than the USA. Russia has a dictator and no freedoms at all. So can someone please tell me where it's better?
Damn right. The smarter people are seeing the writing on the wall. The game is up, were fucked. Less intelligent people and those who are too scared or brainwashed to see the reality, know that something is seriously wrong, but are hoping it will come back in a few years at worst, maybe after a short recession or even a depression. But they havent realized that it will not come back, ever. America is now the third world.
Yeah NBA athletes live paycheck to paycheck too, doesn't mean anything. Pick any country you like, I guarantee it will have more immigrants to USA than other way around. There's a reason for this :D
Seems the word work has become a dirty word , too many expect others and the government to take care of them society has become lazy , to work is a non starter for them .
The US census bureau hasnt surveyed anyone if they live paycheck to paycheck so this is false, sounds like a Bs statistic from obviously very small 200 people surveys that are inherently biased.
And the idea of ‘the American dream’ is a tv product created by the ethnic group in diaspora whom this video is talking about. It’s a literal fiction. 😂😂
Turned away from AMERICA, not the West. I always hate it when people throw Denmark or Ireland in with America (''the West''). Truth is, Western Europe is desperate to become independent from the American Empire. Eastern Europe is different because they are worried about Russia.
@@TJ-vl1ffif they were desperate to become free of the Empire, then why continue the farce that is NATO? Why lick the boots of imperialism, continue to do imperialism, and whine everytime Chinese come with products?
@@TJ-vl1ff Unfortunately most of western European and Eastern European leaders are puppets to the US... they only follow the crowds or trends and are being lead onto the garden path to the hole..
@@TJ-vl1ff You hate? :) You have to love, not to hate. :) The north Europe is a little bit socialist countries compared to the US, for rest of continents on this palnet no difference from North of Europe and US, you are together always. Regards from 3rd world country.
Deepest comment i read here so far, and it's 100% true.... it's reflected on famous people like actors, singers etc that yeah they can have all the wealth you want but they gave up their souls to the corrupted/evil controlled by the elite of this country which is also very very evil... gotta watch out. Watch your kids, they tend to disappear a lot here in America... and it's like nothing happened.
That’s the point of American dream to make $$$. The land of opportunities. Once you made it, you can literally live anywhere around the world. That’s why we moved from Canada to the US
I've been back from China and Taiwan after 7 years there. Due to an injury I couldn't return to China in 2017. I'm mentally exhausted and despite family buying a condo to try and get me to stay. Mentally I'm soooooo exhausted with the quality of life in my leftist State. As an Independent but realistically a global citizen I'm having anxiety for agreeing to stay. I'm still probably going to travel to Vietnam. I'm short on money but I think I can get by and still pay the minor fees I'm responsible for in America.
European here. I travelled in Malaysia as a woman with my 2 adult daughters for 2 months. No man. Never a problem, never been bothered. Not once. We loved Malaysia. I love Istanbul too but Malaysia was really chill and safe. Totally true that nobody looks at you, they leave you alone. That said, we did our homework and tried to respect the culture. Which, btw, is worth knowing. We already left our country and are considering moving further away.
Its a lovely country to visit and travel but as a citizen. The chinese and indians are racially discriminated, different prespectives - my children would have suffered because i was a malaysian of chinese heritage. Could not enter medical school even with having met entrance requirements due to quota system for non muslims. Got passed up for promotion even though i have a degree and relevant experience. Guy who got the position have no degree (applied chemistry in carbons, as it was a oil company, was the bare minimum pre requisite). My wife was Malaysian and was discriminated because she didnt speak Malay as she grew up in singapore. I was forced to translate for her to get her passport renewed even though those serving us at the counter spoke English. I am now in Australia, not perfect but my children who are now adults have better opportunities and their degrees are recognized in most countries, enabling international mobility. I am not pouring cold water but there's a lot more to what we see superficially. I was a PR in Singapore and worked for over 12 years. I left because at 18 years old my childreb would be forced to elect to be either a citizen or leave the country (sort of). They dont allow second generations to continue being a PR to prevent exploitation of opportunities without having to commit and invest in the country's future.
@@daniellee8720 you find reservations even in India, where certain sections have been kept slaves for a thousand years Equality for all is not a passive, but an active work, unlike what supremacists would like all to believe
I’m Southeast Asian Asia country is beautiful & bless by god & natural earth!! Beautiful weather, beautiful landscape, beautiful island, rich resources & great cultures!! East Asia (Korea l, Japan, Taiwan, Hongkong, recent is China) & some Southeast Asia country as Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia & Vietnam is safety!! Mostly East Asia is more developed, more clean, more safety than US, UK & ALOT WESTERN COUNTRY!!
Living abroad in a poor country only works if you're wealthy and retired, with a stable first world income you receive as a first world currency. Otherwise people would be living in poverty and competing with the locals for slave jobs just to get by. In addition to that, a lot of infrastructure and high standards of quality exist in these countries because of the first world presence. For example, Malaysia's good health care system is because of doctors imported from, educated and trained in the West by Western standards. And if everyone leaves the first world, there won't be a first world anymore. As for nomad capitalist, he's never telling his audience everything there is to know about another country abroad. For example, if you're a foreigner buying property in some countries, like Mexico, it belongs to the government, not you. Foreigners have no rights in most countries. Something none of these living abroad channels don't talk about.
In Mexico, there are restrictions on foreigners owning land within a certain distance of the coast and borders. Otherwise, foreigners can own land directly. Even within the restriction zones, foreigners can own land in a bank trust or create a business to own the property. Many other countries aren't this liberal, though, especially in Asia.
@@MaryGwenDungan In the Philippines, you lease from the government for a 25 year block of time, and then can extend the lease for another 25 years, if you so wish. A large parcel of land might cost you a few hundred dollars a month to lease. This arrangement allows anything built on that property to be yours. And keep in mind, this keeps an "enterprising" Filipina from stealing your property!
@@JohnGrigg-gz9gm This leasehold thing seems to be commonplace in Asia. I was in the Philippines many years ago. It's very poor. I suppose it's changed somewhat, but I couldn't imagine going back there and especially not to live.
@@MaryGwenDungan I've been here five years and the old timer expats say it has improved over the decades. The middle class here is definitely growing. But the great days of the dollar being vastly worth more than the peso are long over. The people speak English, are Christian, and generally friendly. I may eventually end up marrying one of their women. Take care.
I like USA, because gave me the opportunity to improve my life, unfortunately it's politc has been really really bad.I feel that USA isn't no the same as 1990's right now is getting worse for so many wars.
It's just that when you were having your "American dream", you were fast asleep. You've only just began to wake. The US have always been politically nasty and messy since Columbus and his colonial masters invaded the country. Ask any Native American and they'll tell you the "American dream" is all about invading, enslaving, stealing, killing and endless wars.
I have loved America since I was a teenager and I came at age 19 from England. I always believed the spin that the US was the greatest country, that they were always helping other nations get freedom and democracy. It was all a lie. The list of wars, invasions, regime changes, occupations is staggering. The evil democrat party woke me up and now I find I can't live here anymore. A broken heart is not easy to cope with. I know my home country is just as bad, they follow along regardless. It is better to look for a more tolerant and peaceful country to spend the rest of my life in. I would live in Russia but not sure I can learn the language at this point. I am in my early 70's. The cost of living here is way over the heads of ordinary people and seniors are forgotten completely. Illegals are given more money to live on than the average retiree. What a sad decline.
My sister and I aged 68 & 70 respectively, also contemplate/fantasize moving to Russia from Canada. Maybe we could get a language test exemption as retired seniors’ applying for permanent residency, if we promise to hire a Russian tutor? 😊🫶🇷🇺
@@kristinheartknaan I know it is not so easy for you to come to permanent residence. Now there is a list of “unfriendly” countries whose citizens find it difficult to obtain a residence permit. But it’s better to ask those foreigners who already live here. Here on RUclips, type something like Canadians or Americans or Australians in Russia. You will get a lot of information from them.
Would suggest learning enough of the language to achieve daily tasks. Duolingo app is free, there was/is a free RT course and someone's website with answers to RT course questions. Then could visit for a month or so to see if it meets expectations.
I really liked America. But it is changing too fast and I no longer recognize it. I've lived abroad in Asia for over a year now. I don't regret moving, but am sad at what the US and other Western countries have become
Truth is, these western nations have always been this way. It’s just now with the technological era that they’re unable to hide their whickedness. Online, the quiet parts are always said out loud.
“Civil asset forfeiture," "qualified immunity," highest healthcare costs, largest prison population. These four reasons should be enough for any conscious adult to leave US.
In coming 100 years, you will see a reverse immigration. This time, it will be the people from the west migrating out of there to live in places like Gulf region (UAE, Saudi, Oman, Bahrain, Kuwait, etc.), SE Asia (Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, etc.), Morocco, South Africa and Turkey.

@@olegnurmagomedov750what happens when you and your girlfriend can’t talk anymore, you start fighting. Same thing for other relationships, except now that they’re not women the physical threat becomes involved behind speech.
I left too and can see with eyes wide open now that the US is among the worst nation in the world in which to live. Falling far behind in almost every category that counts!
When you think of what we're told about North Korea, and then you look around and just listen... the twist you have to perform to not see it is quite the ask for a sane person.
It's honestly odd to hear Malaysia spoken in such glowing terms because Malaysians are often very down/negative about the country's prospects and value etc. But having lived abroad a few years, I have to say we take a lot of things for granted. I don't anymore.
As a b40 who is full time housewife, yes we Malaysian earned less but we also have great products and services produced locally at lower prices.. My family live comfortably in KL with small income. But peoples keep looking at the negatives side such as focusing on low currency while forget that we still able to enjoy many things in low cost using our ringgit compare to many countries around us.
It's absolutely true. My kids have left and are trying to permanently leave abroad. 😢 Many people that I've known have left, UK and Africa, and Thailand.
It sounds like it's time to transition! When you can change your sex for the price of a used car or free with socialized medicine overseas, compared to the price of a new car in America, it's time to leave- -and do it there!
It's funny when AMERICANS worry about security in other countries. I’m from Moscow, foreign bloggers living here stream from different parts of the city, shocking their compatriots by the fact that in the evening they speak freely on the phone on the street and girls ride the subway in the evening in short skirts😄😄
You're delusional if you think only american living in other countries worry about security, walk the stree of new york and ask people if it is secure.
@@tony001212 It looks like you haven't watched this video. Cyrus's friends in America were concerned about his safety in Turkey. This is the same thing if I, a Russian, were worried about whether my Russian friend would freeze in Africa
(I hope you're still on..) I believe you've hit on a fascinating coincidence between our two countries. My sense is yours is much like ours was in the '70's, which means you have a lot of good times ahead! (And it needn't end unless you make the same mistakes..)
Oh wow. I didn’t see this coming. My 2 favourite American channels. I’ve been wondering u will interview nomad capitalist Andrew. I’m Malaysian and have been watching him talking about America and current affairs.
@CyrusJanssen was hoping you could expand for the younger audience. Most channels appeal to established white men in their 40s, which is understandable, but what advice could you could you give from the perspective of young men with no assets just a clean slait who would like to contribute to a society that values them. Who may not necessarily care to much about investment just at the minimum escaping the non sense of the west and make a decent living.
Malaysia is a super nice place with down to earth people. It is the politicians who are riding on the religion of Islam and making a certain percentage of the population radicalized. We even have a term for these religion riders: "penunggang agama" 😂. As long as you are polite to everyone and ask nicely, your errands will run smoothly. As a Christian evangelist, though, I have to exercise caution whenever share the Gospel of Jesus to my Malay friends, because it is illegal under the law to proselytize to Muslims. A pastor (Raymond Koh) has been abducted by the deep state for publicly preaching the Christian Gospel to Malays. But if you're just here for business and not Gospel, then no problems at all.
Right now the only thing stopping many people from leaving is high-earning US jobs (think: Nvidia, Apple, BlackRock). Sooner or later, that empire money will run dry when the US corporations are no longer able to access and\or compete in high-growth markets around the world, and that's when the really serious exodus of international students and H1B workers will begin. My vibes-based analysis says 5 - 15 years, but the trend is already starting if you look closely
A lot of Indians aspire to move to the USA as students and then try to get H1B to live the American dream. But the last few years are the first time I'm witnessing so many of them choose to come back and settle here. Even my cousin returned last week after 6 years there.
@@aakankshachopde8811Yes, they are getting the US education and then leave. America needs to offer these accomplished students citizenship in my opinion. Keep the talent here..
Exactly . Americans pay taxpayer money for the police but we don't have them and even if they arrest people the district attorneys let them out without bail that day Joe Biden has allowed 12 million or more illegal immigrants into this country and some of them are getting Social Security SSI even if they're in their twenties . that's for disabled children .they're all getting Medicaid and most of them qualify for some kind of welfare like food stamps or 1,000 or $2,000 a month and I only earn $1,100 a month off of Social Security disability ..I was a lawyer but when I got lupus and rheumatoid arthritis my doctors are terrible and if I was taking my pain medicine and I was on my lupus meds and see your medicine I would be able to go back to work but I can't because of my terrible doctors
As an european i would never travel to the US. Mostly because i feel that it is one of the most unsafe countries in the world. I would be afraid to get shot or robbed. I also don’t want to see all the homeless tents, drugged people on the streets…
If you discount the gun violence that occurs within the inner major cities mainly within the black community, our levels of gun violence falls to that of Switzerland. U.S. is extremely safe if you stay out of the inner city ghettos. I don’t know why anyone would want to visit US major cities anyways. There’s nothing charming about them. If you visit go out west for the national parks.
i would not want to live in the usa (full time anyway )but ive visited famaly there and its fantastic to visit nice climet in places i am from london now london is a shit hole but if you live in the parts of northen england or parts of the midlands this country is one of the best countrys in the world when i told ppl my ethencity ppl would say why did you famaly move hear i am like they came over 50 years ago closer to 60 years back then that country was a shit hole things change alot in that time frame also most the country works a split shift and thats a turn of for me maybe if i worked for a english employer and we worked nomal shifts i would move there
@vknight7497 I'm irish and live in Ireland quite happily. But I do love the USA and try to visit it there every year only on holidays for up to 10 to 14 days each visit. I think the city's are amazing. I loved so many places to see in NYC next month September we are off to Washington DC for 10days and I'm so excited to see so many attractions there. So many beautiful places all across America.
I'm Brazilian and I noticed this phenomenon recently. More and more Americans are moving here and we're like "What? Why are you here?" and what all of them say is that, despite the numbers, violence in big cities is similar, the food is better, but the main reason is free healthcare. To us, Brazilians, our healthcare system is crap, but apparently it's nothing compared to the US, and medicines are way cheaper here too, which really scares me, because none of those things are good from our perspective, but are great from an American perspective. It's been a shock, because Hollywood always sold the idea of American Dream, but XXI seams like US is only good for the rich or if you're a tourist, want to go shopping
I’m in West Africa (Ghana). I lived in Ethiopia for 3 years prior to Ghana and America for almost 40 years before that. Best decision I ever made. Shame on USA for portraying the African continent in such a negative light. Nicest people, great food and sunny weather everyday, best living available for children (able to afford nanny help, private international schools etc).
@@vanessasnelgrove8318 it always depends, every country has bad neighborhood but overall life is pretty good, it is not a cheap country like others in the continent but there is always a sense of peace and it is possible to plan for the future
I live in a northern area of Michigan, and in the past three years, I've seen a sharp increase in the number of camper trailers parked in people's front and back yards. Some homes have 3 or even 4 of them. I know damn well they're not there for a weekend at the lake with family. These folks are forced to live in aluminum hovels. Things are looking pretty desperate around here. I clean the homes of the wealthy seasonal home owners, and I often walkt through the bedrooms and wonder how many people could live in all the empty space.
Even if you’re not a millionaire, life overseas (outside America) is more intriguing, lots of different cultures, foods and experiences to try. Why not travel and figure out where to live and work, if you can? I grew up up overseas as an American. I lived in Libya when Ghadaffi took power. We stayed for three more years before my dad decided to leave (government was nationalizing the oil biz). We moved to Europe until I was college age, then Houston. Living overseas is an experience I would value as an educational opportunity and experience and I plan to “retire” overseas likely in Europe. I plan to travel to more parts of the world too but my interests are largely more European centered. Taxes are less on housing and rates are cheaper, even in France or Italy. If you don’t work for a living you won’t have to pay the social taxes and you’re not double taxed ( the USA is one of only two countries that taxes its citizens living abroad) due to the treaty in place. So day to day life is cheaper, the food better (by far), and the wine, transport, art and culture is so much more attractive.
Better leave it on. The darkness here is so terrible. Even they need the hope of better, even though they don't want it and will fight to the end against becoming what they need to become in respects to harmony with the totality of humanity.
im somewhere in europe and im seriously considering moving somewhere to get away from conditions here. thanks for telling me about this guys channel i will watch some videos.
No its visibly dying just now because of losing in Ukraine. It is Ukraine that will reveal US weakness and they know it. This is why people talk about immigrating Russia now. I have never seen moving to Russia as popular topic.
Its very interesting that perspective of what my grand father had of US and what me and dad have now. I am from Pakistan and we used to think of US we think of the Ford, Henry Fonda, Frank Sinatra, Hollywood, Cowboys and land of dreams. But in recents years it has shifted to gun violence, drugs, war, invasion, drones and tanks etc. We used to have a very positive view of US to some extent atleast now it's mostly negative as some country nothing but a bully to the entire world...
If people living better in other countries, good for them, I'm happy listening to their experiences, but poor, with health issues, including heart failure, I can't go anywhere to live, just for a better life but taking a huge risk to died sooner than I expected in USA
i cant say china is good due to they have some censor and some bad things on there, but it is what it is. but if you look for some opportunity its good since the technology there is very shocking, i recommend you do some homework and some research since internet on there is a bit restricted but still within the definition of 'free'
@@leesiewoo5116I’ve met a few Mainland Chinese nationals while traveling through Malaysia. They did confirm that the Chinese internet is very restrictive. They were traveling outside of China to research a way to access the open internet.
@@pariank of course censorship on rubbish, fake news, provocative etc are in place. Why US is so worry about TikTok now? Because TikTok refused to submit data to CIA and FBI? I met Japanese that complain about Japan, Korean complaining about Korea, only Americans keep loving America eventhough they support genocide by Israel on Palestinians, no? You might met some Malaysian complaining about Malaysia. Why are you so excited by a Chinese complain about China censorship? Hangover from fentanyl?
Many people from the USA are waking up. I am from South America and I have been living here for 2 years. In a month or so I could confirm all what I had thought about living here. This system is functional to the system itself not the people. The media and politics made locals and foreigners believe that this is the best place in the world...Well, now with more social media people are opening their eyes.
The problem with US citizens moving to other countries. It is that it makes those places living more expensive too. Americans can not accept a live style with a few hundred dolars, which is normal in many countries.
This is very true! I live in Brazil as an American with a wife and daughter on a Brazilian salary. We have a house that was recently built and all of the electronics, appliances, and things I'd have in the USA. My monthly income is about 985 USD per month. The neighborhood we live in is working class/poor, but peaceful. I'm happy, but most Americans here would not live on that amount! They have an obsession with living a lavish lifestyle and buying things they don't need. This is why I don't hang around a lot of American expats here because they try to influence me to aspire to live that lifestyle when my lifestyle is very simple. I have good credit, no debt and a house and they act as if just because I'm American here, I need to be living in the most upscale condominium with a harem of women, popping champagne bottles.
Im Malaysian, i can tell these expat slowly becoming Modern Colonization without war. Kuala Lumpur are offardable for them. But for me its expensive af. Rent are 2x now since 2015. Kuala Lumpur was a great job opportunity until 2010. In order to live comfortable, i must atleast earn 5000-10000 MYR to raise a family stress free which is most employers cant afford except MNC or anything out from Malaysia like Singapore. Basically Malaysia are no longer my boss or client.
I’m an American and looking forward to retiring in about 5 years from now and I cannot wait to get out of this country too stressful to live and work here imo politics is too intense it has become a corrupt government actually I am thinking of moving to italy Japan and Thailand in my first year of retirement god willing.
@@licktin1091 Yup Kuala Lumpur! Hmm....lots of changes, but also much remains the same. It's the rainy season now. Rush hour traffic is as bad as ever. More and more shopping malls that no one asks for. Maybe it's time to come back!
I left the US in 2017 I keep a high-rise condo In Makati Philippines, I spend 4 months a year in Jomtien Thailand, I'm usually in George Town Malaysia during Christmas and New Years still my monthly expenses are 45% less than the US. Over the years I've lived in Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Malaysia coming from Los Angeles CA. I haven't seen a police helicopter circling overhead or guns shots in 7 years across 5 countries, beside America doesn't want the black man never did but I'm good with it.
I want to be like you! The only thing holding me back is the fact that I require a high-tier medication daily. I'm not sure how I would obtain this living overseas. I'm looking into it.
This conversation was so enlightening for me. It made me think that I should start traveling more now, although I already have lived and traveled in Asia for 8 years.
Excuse me but I've been promoting leaving the US since 2002 when I first went to Russia. But no one would listen to me except for a small group of friends and fans. I deserve credit for being ahead of my time. Everyone should say "Winston Wu was right!" I definitely deserve it! :)
I left on vacation to Asia, 10 years ago. I liked it so much abroad, I initiated an early retirement, and never went back. Settled in Philippines, BTW, where the currency exchange rate is now around 56-57 Pesos to the US Dollar. I can live like a King here on what would be just subsistence income in the States.
I’m 61 and retired when my VA disability came through. It’s not a massive amount of money but it balances out because I have almost zero consumer debt. Anyway, when I looked up the exchange rates between the US and The Philippines, Colombia, Vietnam and a few other places…well, numbers are ruthless creatures. So was the conclusion they pointed to: *I’d effectively be a One Percenter the instant I got off a plane!* Still in the States but doing research. About to jump the fence…
I am 80, born in London, UK, 1944, during WWII, and came here in 1949 to NYC in 1949 on the Queen Mary. So being born in UK, my Mother was from Switzerland, and my Father from Germany, so I could live there too. I did serve in USAir Force after ROTC in college in the 1960's, and am now a 100% Disabled American Veteran of the Vietnam War Era, over 50 years ago. 😊
There are worse countries but there are more and more beter places to live. U.s gov is getting more corrupt. Americans are tired and can not afford anything...
@youknowkbbaby There are still a few, but give 'Murica time... we'll be a complete dystopia by the middle of the century. We're already well on our way to #1 worst!
Made the great escape five years ago now. BEST MOVE I HAVE EVER MADE IN MY 40 YEARS. Gained my citizenship in the Caribbean renounced, my American citizenship. Anxiety, depression, anger….GONE. LIFE IS GOOD. I highly encourage anybody, and everybody that has the willpower to do the same. You don’t need a lot of money you just need the courage to take that step. You won’t be disappointed I guarantee it.
I think about it, but I have many friends in the US military and I love the foundational freedoms of my country too much. The thing killing the US is the people in our government and their growing incompetence
Is this actually true? I'm from a 3rd world nation and half of our population including me has a dream of leaving the nation permanantly. Over 90% of this people want to move to north America. But it's shocking how increasingly US is showing a symptom identified with the 3rd world.
It's definitely true. Wealth disparity here has never been higher. By most recent accounts, 70% of Americans were living paycheck to paycheck. That's 70% of people on borderline poverty/homelessness. Cost of living has skyrocketed, annnnd the national debt just hit 34 trillion dollars. We have unlimited money for foreign wars though, and it's entirely possible we've either already invaded your country or we have a military base close enough to invade. The American Dream, if it was ever true, has rapidly become a nightmare.
Before Reagan, interest was 18%, inflation was 15% highest ever reached. The US is better off during the 2010s and now than it ever was in the last century.
@@aimxdy8680 The inflation of the Carter years was due to the oil embargo. Oil prices affect everything, and the cartels put it to us, as well as the hostages in Iran, who were released the day of Reagan's inauguration. Reagan cut a deal with Iran, clearly, and was one of the worst ever, as he started the destruction of the middle class in earnest.
It's an excellent policy. Who do you think care more about their country? The natives or nationals who rely on the land for everything(food, energy resources, safety, cultural freedom) or the foreigners who consider the land as another asset in their portfolio? Foreigners looking to invest in a foreign land are just economic tourists, they will stay as long as they financially benefit from it whereas the natives who can't escape must stay to make the country prosper. Turning everything into financial instruments is a game that can only be played by wealthy countries with a sophisticated financial infrastructure. Why play by rules that don't benefit your economy and keep the natives in constant state of financial or economic neediness? One has to be stupid to do that.
Obama killed our healthcare...we lost many good doctors and nurses, they all had to join big business hospitals, and have to follow government protocols. Watching how they handled covid says it all..there were drugs that worked and were cheap, so they banned them, and killed people with Fauci's remdesivir and vents...and Fauci and others walk free. It's sickening.
I appreciate listening to both of your perspectives. There are so many great places to live in the world and get involved with wonderful people. But i am finding it difficult to tolerate the politics in the US and its overbearing attitude towards much of the world, invading, conquering and dominating. And then instilling hatred of Russia, China and so on, distorting the truth about many things in mainstream US media. I love many things about Russia and China, plus Cuba, Iran, Syria and many other places and peoples. Just let me sit back and enjoy the many good things in places that may be quite different. I just do not want to wake up and find 10 more US military bases in Sweden and now Armenia! It just doesn’t make sense and I won’t accept it anymore. I love my American friends, but not many of the things going on in the country.
Living a nomad life is not for everyone. Most people would be content finding a country that is safe, peaceful, prosperous, and provides good job opportunities, affordable housing, a decent, affordable health system, good education, and support in retirement, and they would live there happily, until death.
This is True , i come from a hispanic family and a good half are looking at buying real estate back in mexico or elsewhere . if you live in places like california its honestly not worth it anymore the low wages in mexico amount to about the same as the wages in the U.s now due to how bad inflation is . Might as well jump ship while the dollar is still worth something for now , Brics is real people and its coming for the dollar

welcome to my country
I think you just lived in the wrong state but you would know what is best for you. I moved from Seattle to OKC a decade ago and I love it.
Good morning Cyrus...greetings from Costa Rica.
What your doing is sooo important...as most Americans never even get a passport. Their born on the state plantation...& see nothing beyond the fences. With 36 yrs. of having left the USA ... I never regretted the move.
Not only good health...security...& adventure...but ""prosperity"" over what I could ever had obtained back home.
I have lived in Japan...Columbia...and Ecuador ... but nothing comes close to Costa Rica. Thanks again brother.
Be a world citizen, cultural diversity is beautiful life. The US is too ignorant and too much at themselves and that is not smart.
Oh my! How can we reach out to you, Cyrus? I'd certainly love to meet up with you when your're here!
US citizen here, 62 years old. Living in America is exhausting. Everything is war. War overseas, cold war, trade war, culture war, war on this, war on that. War forever. There has to be a better way than this.
US wasn't involved in any foreign wars when Trump was President.
Was it always this way?😢
"War is Peace."
@@zanderthemander8208yes most likely. It was actually worse before.
American society is fake and superficial. If you're poor people look down on you and treat you like crap. You get no real love in this system. It's all fake and phony. People only want to like you and be friends with you when you have money or connections to money and power. And when you don't have it anymore they leave you abandon you. It's a very fake materialistic culture thats full of self centered people. Finding real genuine friends here is very hard. 😢😮
I’m Irish retired in Thailand and I absolutely despise American geopolitics aka coups, sanctions, military invasions, nefarious CIA plots, etc. etc. The rest of the world has lost all respect for USA in recent decades.
US dug up its own grave.
Phuket seems to be a popular place nowadays. Not trying to ruin it for you if you are there! 😀❤
Have you tried not repeating the excuses for these geopolitical actions? It's always "yes I agree that Assad or whoever is bad but..." At that point you're still agreeing to a war.
Don't blame average Americans, we just want to get along in peace and prosperity with everyone else. The Globalist Elites who control the foreign policy of both Major Parties are the war mongers, not the American people. Trump kept the Elites under some semblance of control, it's the main reason they HATE him and are using all their tools to prevent his reelection. Trump has a BIG MOUTH, but he kept America out of overseas wars and struck good trade agreements with China, Japan, Mexico and many other nations.
US has been at this for quite some time. It's not just the past few decades. The CIA has been the biggest threat to global democracy since the 50s.
I've liked every American I've met , the problem with the US is the people who are running the show .
This, and that the 2 parties do not really reflect what most people value, but we are seemingly stuck with them. Taken to extremes, which happens when either one of the 2 parties have any bit of power, they both lead to moralistic tyrannies, either the Woke Leftists with their dogma, or the religious evangelicalism associated with the Right. Better would be something closer to libertarian and classical liberal ideals which actually promote freedom instead, but we are stuck with Dems and Reps, and special interests who are actually running the show. Also less interests that favor and interfere with other countries and instead invest locally would be better. I know most Americans do not feel like they are represented by their representatives. Politics, politicians, and government are ruining the US now.
@@darksavior1187 both those parties are right wing, 1 is just culturally progressive while the other is conservative hence this is practically a 1 party state.

The problem with the “American Dream” is that it’s too expensive to get, too expensive to keep, and you have to always worry about your own government stealing it from you.🎬
No property taxes in China or Vietnam, maybe other se Asian countries too
True
The american dream is now only for people and corporations that work for the government, called fascism.
Greed from people wanting more for there home's and politions doing inside trading. Must stop!!!

As a millennial I think about leaving the USA every day. I also accept that there are tradeoffs in doing so, but the US is turning into an unlivable place for many reasons, even if you have money.

We gave 160 billion to Ukraine. We could have ended the homeless problem in the USA 8 times over.
The US has given Israel a thousand times more! And all we got are genocide and wars from the Zionists!

Throwing money at it won't solve it. We have cultural changes via the progressives that have caused most of the homeless problem.
someone told them to spend the money like this that u cant say their names, u know Kanye ryt? LOL

Due to some horrible experiences living in the U.S., I ended up being slightly ahead in the game.
My disgust with the U.S. hit it's boiling point years ago.
As soon as I turned 66 and started getting my Social Security, I got a passport and started figuring out where I was going to go.
I'm now in Ecuador.

The USA has been ruined by untethered greed we haven't seen since the Great Depression.
I'm Gen X, and I've been trying to move abroad for decades. I finally decided that I'll have to wait until retirement to do so (Another ten years) since I'm neither a nurse, engineer, nor independently wealthy. Same deal for several friends. Between the crumbling infrastructure, poisoned water, crap education, ugly architecture, and toxic culture, there's little for any of us here anymore.
My sentiments, the architect is very boring.
Leave already, enjoy those 10 years somewhere else, it would be 10x than waiting in the usa
Yep, that's my plan. Late Gen X, retiring to Belize in 11 years.

Absolutely on the architecture. Suburbs are boring and lonely and downtowns are soulless and all look the same 😢
Live in Toronto and a friend of mine is planning on moving back to IRAN! That’s how bad it’s become here.
The future for Iran is looking much better now as it partners with Russia and China. It wouldn’t surprise me to see Iranians moving back to take advantage of good opportunities, like Chinese are moving back to China.
Toronto, where you're told to leave your car keys outside so thiefs can steal it ,because if they break into your house and get hurt, they can sue you? Lol
Heard that too. Canada and the states are a joke at this point. We Have no intentions of retiring here. 🤷🏽♀️😌
@@sg5720 Toronto is not Canada; it is in Canada… there is a difference. Other parts of the country are not only safe but pleasant as long as you accept that most of it has a continental climate (like the Russian Federation) but have socialized medicine inter alia. I live in Victoria BC and would live few other places most of the year. However, Canada is not immune to nutcase ideas on socio-economic issues as we share history and a long border with the US - the source of most of these metaphysical flights of fancy. If you are a world citizen it matters little where you live but the US and the UK are not recommended as permanent residences unless you are ultra wealthy (greater than 20 million US dollars) and have strong family commitments in North America or age-related infirmities.
I spemnt 3 years in Toronto, 1999-2002, moved to the US. Now leave the US...no life here, even with money. I agree with your friend, I would leave Canada too.... No way there,
I don't blame you, DC is a snake pit.
I left the US, when Americans voted a second time for warmonger Bush Jr.
you're fortunate to have gotten out. I wish I could have moved out in the early 90s. But I had to stay to work on my pension.
From 1988 onward, America has been in a slide downward. Trump's 4 years tried to restrain the war mongers, it's one of the reasons they hate him so much. The rest of them-Bush Sr. Clinton, Bush Jr., Obama, Biden are all puppets controlled by Globalist Eiltes.
Once a traitor always a traitor
In coming 100 years, you will see a reverse immigration. This time, it will be the people from the west migrating out of there to live in places like Gulf region (UAE, Saudi, Oman, Bahrain, Kuwait, etc.), SE Asia (Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, etc.), Morocco, South Africa and Turkey.
These countries have better law and order, better healthcare conditions, a good birth ratio, and an overall pleasant living environment. Language will not be an issue because English is spoken as a 2nd language in all metropolitan cities of these countries.
Countries with most outward migration in the west will be 1) the UK, 2) France, 3) Germany, 4) Canada and 5) the US.
@@tuckerbugeater ,, who is the traitor ?
US politicians top love's list :
1. Israel
2. Ukraine
3. Money
4. power
and last but definately least
5. Care for its people
Might want to put that last one in asterisk, with a note that reads it can be higher (rarely) or even lower depending on said politician's priorities.
US politicians care more about enemies as it deemed than its own people who vote them into power. Something must be very wrong.

I want to do that too. How can an American who’s retired legally live there?
My grandma moved there a few years back, and when she came to visit us, she was appalled at how expensive everything was here. She tried to buy me a crate of strawberries (thanks Grandma, ily) and her jaw dropped when she heard the price. I don't remember what the price was, but I believe it was around double what she expected it to be. Her funds for her trip to America got drained so fast. Hoping I can visit her in Scotland someday!
Went to the UK and almost every neighborhood there looks like ran down section 8 housing, Very surprised on how much poverty the Uk has, feels like a 3rd world country there
America died decades ago, its not the land of the free, that dream was killed by politics

Dubai can't grow enough food and doesn't even have a sewer system. Latin America has higher crime rates and worse job prospects. Most of Asia has no oil or natural gas and is in the same boat as china. Plus they have more elderly populations than the USA. Russia has a dictator and no freedoms at all. So can someone please tell me where it's better?
Stay back in US and be a statistic with 78% living pay check to pay check? Time to get out for a better life.
Damn right. The smarter people are seeing the writing on the wall. The game is up, were fucked. Less intelligent people and those who are too scared or brainwashed to see the reality, know that something is seriously wrong, but are hoping it will come back in a few years at worst, maybe after a short recession or even a depression. But they havent realized that it will not come back, ever. America is now the third world.
Yeah NBA athletes live paycheck to paycheck too, doesn't mean anything.
Pick any country you like, I guarantee it will have more immigrants to USA than other way around. There's a reason for this :D
Seems the word work has become a dirty word , too many expect others and the government to take care of them society has become lazy , to work is a non starter for them .
The US census bureau hasnt surveyed anyone if they live paycheck to paycheck so this is false, sounds like a Bs statistic from obviously very small 200 people surveys that are inherently biased.

European here. I travelled in Malaysia as a woman with my 2 adult daughters for 2 months. No man. Never a problem, never been bothered. Not once. We loved Malaysia. I love Istanbul too but Malaysia was really chill and safe. Totally true that nobody looks at you, they leave you alone. That said, we did our homework and tried to respect the culture. Which, btw, is worth knowing. We already left our country and are considering moving further away.
Its a lovely country to visit and travel but as a citizen. The chinese and indians are racially discriminated, different prespectives - my children would have suffered because i was a malaysian of chinese heritage. Could not enter medical school even with having met entrance requirements due to quota system for non muslims. Got passed up for promotion even though i have a degree and relevant experience. Guy who got the position have no degree (applied chemistry in carbons, as it was a oil company, was the bare minimum pre requisite). My wife was Malaysian and was discriminated because she didnt speak Malay as she grew up in singapore. I was forced to translate for her to get her passport renewed even though those serving us at the counter spoke English. I am now in Australia, not perfect but my children who are now adults have better opportunities and their degrees are recognized in most countries, enabling international mobility. I am not pouring cold water but there's a lot more to what we see superficially. I was a PR in Singapore and worked for over 12 years. I left because at 18 years old my childreb would be forced to elect to be either a citizen or leave the country (sort of). They dont allow second generations to continue being a PR to prevent exploitation of opportunities without having to commit and invest in the country's future.
It's okay they don't care about any problems in your country they're just living the rich life

Living abroad in a poor country only works if you're wealthy and retired, with a stable first world income you receive as a first world currency. Otherwise people would be living in poverty and competing with the locals for slave jobs just to get by.
In addition to that, a lot of infrastructure and high standards of quality exist in these countries because of the first world presence. For example, Malaysia's good health care system is because of doctors imported from, educated and trained in the West by Western standards. And if everyone leaves the first world, there won't be a first world anymore.

For example, if you're a foreigner buying property in some countries, like Mexico, it belongs to the government, not you. Foreigners have no rights in most countries. Something none of these living abroad channels don't talk about.
In Mexico, there are restrictions on foreigners owning land within a certain distance of the coast and borders. Otherwise, foreigners can own land directly. Even within the restriction zones, foreigners can own land in a bank trust or create a business to own the property.
Many other countries aren't this liberal, though, especially in Asia.
@@MaryGwenDungan In the Philippines, you lease from the government for a 25 year block of time, and then can extend the lease for another 25 years, if you so wish. A large parcel of land might cost you a few hundred dollars a month to lease. This arrangement allows anything built on that property to be yours. And keep in mind, this keeps an "enterprising" Filipina from stealing your property!
@@JohnGrigg-gz9gm This leasehold thing seems to be commonplace in Asia.
I was in the Philippines many years ago. It's very poor. I suppose it's changed somewhat, but I couldn't imagine going back there and especially not to live.

I like USA, because gave me the opportunity to improve my life, unfortunately it's politc has been really really bad.I feel that USA isn't no the same as 1990's right now is getting worse for so many wars.
Opportunity is everywhere if u look around… safety is not though
it was always that way, u just realized it now
@@tc-red9000You would be surprised that most of the countries that are feared are very safe.
US politicians are experts at demonising others and concocting proxy wars in other nations. In reality, the USA is clearly the most unsafe nation.
It's just that when you were having your "American dream", you were fast asleep. You've only just began to wake. The US have always been politically nasty and messy since Columbus and his colonial masters invaded the country. Ask any Native American and they'll tell you the "American dream" is all about invading, enslaving, stealing, killing and endless wars.
I have loved America since I was a teenager and I came at age 19 from England. I always believed the spin that the US was the greatest country, that they were always helping other nations get freedom and democracy. It was all a lie. The list of wars, invasions, regime changes, occupations is staggering. The evil democrat party woke me up and now I find I can't live here anymore. A broken heart is not easy to cope with. I know my home country is just as bad, they follow along regardless. It is better to look for a more tolerant and peaceful country to spend the rest of my life in. I would live in Russia but not sure I can learn the language at this point. I am in my early 70's. The cost of living here is way over the heads of ordinary people and seniors are forgotten completely. Illegals are given more money to live on than the average retiree. What a sad decline.
This used to be a helluva good country, but since the 1960's onward things have gone downhill.

@@kristinheartknaan I know it is not so easy for you to come to permanent residence. Now there is a list of “unfriendly” countries whose citizens find it difficult to obtain a residence permit. But it’s better to ask those foreigners who already live here. Here on RUclips, type something like Canadians or Americans or Australians in Russia. You will get a lot of information from them.
Would suggest learning enough of the language to achieve daily tasks. Duolingo app is free, there was/is a free RT course and someone's website with answers to RT course questions. Then could visit for a month or so to see if it meets expectations.
I really liked America. But it is changing too fast and I no longer recognize it. I've lived abroad in Asia for over a year now. I don't regret moving, but am sad at what the US and other Western countries have become

Violent crime, two-tier Justice system, public education failures, inflation-lots of reasons to leave America.
In coming 100 years, you will see a reverse immigration. This time, it will be the people from the west migrating out of there to live in places like Gulf region (UAE, Saudi, Oman, Bahrain, Kuwait, etc.), SE Asia (Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, etc.), Morocco, South Africa and Turkey.
These countries have better law and order, better healthcare conditions, a good birth ratio, and an overall pleasant living environment. Language will not be an issue because English is spoken as a 2nd language in all metropolitan cities of these countries.
Countries with most outward migration in the west will be 1) the UK, 2) France, 3) Germany, 4) Canada and 5) the US.

It's honestly odd to hear Malaysia spoken in such glowing terms because Malaysians are often very down/negative about the country's prospects and value etc. But having lived abroad a few years, I have to say we take a lot of things for granted. I don't anymore.
Well, probably bc Malaysia is not so affordable for Malasians and only so for outsiders with stronger currencies.
As a b40 who is full time housewife, yes we Malaysian earned less but we also have great products and services produced locally at lower prices.. My family live comfortably in KL with small income. But peoples keep looking at the negatives side such as focusing on low currency while forget that we still able to enjoy many things in low cost using our ringgit compare to many countries around us.

Another Malaysian here showing support!
Malaysia is a super nice place with down to earth people. It is the politicians who are riding on the religion of Islam and making a certain percentage of the population radicalized. We even have a term for these religion riders: "penunggang agama" 😂. As long as you are polite to everyone and ask nicely, your errands will run smoothly. As a Christian evangelist, though, I have to exercise caution whenever share the Gospel of Jesus to my Malay friends, because it is illegal under the law to proselytize to Muslims. A pastor (Raymond Koh) has been abducted by the deep state for publicly preaching the Christian Gospel to Malays. But if you're just here for business and not Gospel, then no problems at all.
Right now the only thing stopping many people from leaving is high-earning US jobs (think: Nvidia, Apple, BlackRock). Sooner or later, that empire money will run dry when the US corporations are no longer able to access and\or compete in high-growth markets around the world, and that's when the really serious exodus of international students and H1B workers will begin. My vibes-based analysis says 5 - 15 years, but the trend is already starting if you look closely
Sounds more like wishful thinking than anything.
A lot of Indians aspire to move to the USA as students and then try to get H1B to live the American dream. But the last few years are the first time I'm witnessing so many of them choose to come back and settle here. Even my cousin returned last week after 6 years there.

Why are you here?" and what all of them say is that, despite the numbers, violence in big cities is similar, the food is better, but the main reason is free healthcare. To us, Brazilians, our healthcare system is crap, but apparently it's nothing compared to the US, and medicines are way cheaper here too, which really scares me, because none of those things are good from our perspective, but are great from an American perspective. It's been a shock, because Hollywood always sold the idea of American Dream, but XXI seams like US is only good for the rich or if you're a tourist, want to go shopping

I live in a northern area of Michigan, and in the past three years, I've seen a sharp increase in the number of camper trailers parked in people's front and back yards. Some homes have 3 or even 4 of them. I know damn well they're not there for a weekend at the lake with family. These folks are forced to live in aluminum hovels. Things are looking pretty desperate around here. I clean the homes of the wealthy seasonal home owners, and I often walkt through the bedrooms and wonder how many people could live in all the empty space.
Even if you’re not a millionaire, life overseas (outside America) is more intriguing, lots of different cultures, foods and experiences to try. Why not travel and figure out where to live and work, if you can?
I grew up up overseas as an American. I lived in Libya when Ghadaffi took power. We stayed for three more years before my dad decided to leave (government was nationalizing the oil biz). We moved to Europe until I was college age, then Houston. Living overseas is an experience I would value as an educational opportunity and experience and I plan to “retire” overseas likely in Europe. I plan to travel to more parts of the world too but my interests are largely more European centered.
Taxes are less on housing and rates are cheaper, even in France or Italy. If you don’t work for a living you won’t have to pay the social taxes and you’re not double taxed ( the USA is one of only two countries that taxes its citizens living abroad) due to the treaty in place. So day to day life is cheaper, the food better (by far), and the wine, transport, art and culture is so much more attractive.
The last bright American please switch off the light on your way out.
I love.

We have a house that was recently built and all of the electronics, appliances, and things I'd have in the USA. My monthly income is about 985 USD per month. The neighborhood we live in is working class/poor, but peaceful. I'm happy, but most Americans here would not live on that amount! They have an obsession with living a lavish lifestyle and buying things they don't need. This is why I don't hang around a lot of American expats here because they try to influence me to aspire to live that lifestyle when my lifestyle is very simple. I have good credit, no debt and a house and they act as if just because I'm American here, I need to be living in the most upscale condominium with a harem of women, popping champagne bottles.

How does a functional system elect so many incompetent people? Sounds like a fundamentally flawed system to me.

It's definitely true. Wealth disparity here has never been higher. By most recent accounts, 70% of Americans were living paycheck to paycheck. That's 70% of people on borderline poverty/homelessness. Cost of living has skyrocketed, annnnd the national debt just hit 34 trillion dollars.

When productivity continued to rise, but wages did not keep up (Reagan's time) the America we knew died.
IJS, I was 18 years old when Ronnie Raygun was spouting his “trickle down” jive. I’m 61 now. The “trickle” has been glacially slow LOL.
He did so much damage to democracy in the name of economy. He gave Rupert Murdock his opening in the us media. So much damage…
Before Reagan, interest was 18%, inflation was 15% highest ever reached. The US is better off during the 2010s and now than it ever was in the last century.
@@aimxdy8680 The inflation of the Carter years was due to the oil embargo. Oil prices affect everything, and the cartels put it to us, as well as the hostages in Iran, who were released the day of Reagan's inauguration. Reagan cut a deal with Iran, clearly, and was one of the worst ever, as he started the destruction of the middle class in earnest.
Thailand is like Cambodia, a foreigner can not own land in either country. You can buy condos but not land and houses.
Good.
It's an excellent policy.
Who do you think care more about their country? The natives or nationals who rely on the land for everything(food, energy resources, safety, cultural freedom) or the foreigners who consider the land as another asset in their portfolio?
Foreigners looking to invest in a foreign land are just economic tourists, they will stay as long as they financially benefit from it whereas the natives who can't escape must stay to make the country prosper.
Turning everything into financial instruments is a game that can only be played by wealthy countries with a sophisticated financial infrastructure.
Why play by rules that don't benefit your economy and keep the natives in constant state of financial or economic neediness?
One has to be stupid to do that.
GOOD
@@silenciothequiet3471like America?

I've been following Andrew for many years now, he is a wise man.
I think everyone complains about healthcare
Obama killed our healthcare...we lost many good doctors and nurses, they all had to join big business hospitals, and have to follow government protocols. Watching how they handled covid says it all..there were drugs that worked and were cheap, so they banned them, and killed people with Fauci's remdesivir and vents...and Fauci and others walk free. It's sickening.
Well, that’s an indicator that our elected officials should be doing something about it. Only politician talking about universal healthcare is Bernie!
People in countries with universal healthcare complain about healthcare.
I appreciate listening to both of your perspectives. There are so many great places to live in the world and get involved with wonderful people.
But i am finding it difficult to tolerate the politics in the US and its overbearing attitude towards much of the world, invading, conquering and dominating. And then instilling hatred of Russia, China and so on, distorting the truth about many things in mainstream US media.
I love many things about Russia and China, plus Cuba, Iran, Syria and many other places and peoples. Just let me sit back and enjoy the many good things in places that may be quite different. I just do not want to wake up and find 10 more US military bases in Sweden and now Armenia! It just doesn’t make sense and I won’t accept it anymore.
I love my American friends, but not many of the things going on in the country.
Living a nomad life is not for everyone. Most people would be content finding a country that is safe, peaceful, prosperous, and provides good job opportunities, affordable housing, a decent, affordable health system, good education, and support in retirement, and they would live there happily, until death.
Left the US back in 2013, never looked back, no regrets.
This is True , i come from a hispanic family and a good half are looking at buying real estate back in mexico or elsewhere . if you live in places like california its honestly not worth it anymore the low wages in mexico amount to about the same as the wages in the U.s now due to how bad inflation is . Might as well jump ship while the dollar is still worth something for now , Brics is real people and its coming for the dollar
Retirees may be the greatest American export
