Right now the biggest problem in life is the country of my passport. I have enough in savings and enough passive income to be able to live comfortably almost anywhere, but whenever…

Without giving away too much PII, some of it is interest from various savings accounts and subscriptions/donations from Patreon etc. and some from sporadic sales.

P.S. Since I mentioned being from the Middle East I think I should add that I'm not religious at all lol But I can't get it removed from my passport as there are laws against apost…

Thank you. Though Mexico has always seemed just as scary and with many of the same problems as the place I want to leave. I'm more inclined towards East Asia, and read that Thailan…

Indeed. People run entire families on like $300 a month, where I've been.

> taking a 20% pay cut > There has been no drop in productivity Your employer seems to believes different.

It's appalling, but not surprising, how little of the world cares about taking even ONE day off every week, let alone two, and laughable to suggest mandating three days off. In the…
