I can kind of understand the Maple Valley guy as he's an older married with kids dude. Not sure what the other people are doing though. Lol Guess people have more money than sense.

AnimeIsTrash posted:"Out" of Seattle. The ones I know moved to Bellevue, Redmond, and Maple Valley. all the people I knew who graduated from evergreen (with liberal arts degree) and moved to Seattle had to move to Tacoma about 5-10 years ago because of tech workers. some that hung around a little longer went back to Yakima or wherever more recently (it’s OK to be gay there now, they say). the ones who moved to Tacoma are really mad because the pandemic flock of Seattleites hosed up their chances at affording a place to live.

Ok I had two separate conversations today with two different people telling me they were considering putting their deposit and savings towards buying and living in south east Asia rather than buying here in Melbourne... i'm guessing there's some new tiktok life hack making the rounds about retiring at 30 in Vietnam or something?

To legally move to Uruguay you have to show a reliable monthly income of roughly $1500.00 per month per person so that's my current bolt hole dream.

Just for funsies I looked at house prices in the part of northern Indonesia I worked in for a season in high school and you can get a 3bed 3bath house a little outside the city for $40K usd or an 3/2 apartment in the middle of the city for $90K.

You can comfortably live off about the same in Mexico, but you can't own property as an immigrant, you have to buy through a trust. I thought about Lake Chapala for a while. Large expat community, higher elevation, big lake. The lake is polluted and maybe neck deep in most places. Prices are higher because of the expats. Crime is, well, it's Mexico.

I was looking at investment visas and the one for Thailand (currently about 220K US for 10 years) covers the investor, their spouse, any biological children, and one "live in maid or staffer" which given what people say about Thailand's expat community seems to have an aura of menace. Saint Lucia, on the other hand is "eh, we'll sell you a passport for $150K, you dont even have to show up lmao"
