I saw a flash of it once. I was in the middle of vagabonding in the philippines (Cebu) where breakfast on the corner was $1 and a private room $15/night. I got a contract for 8hrs at $120/hr = $960.
So I rented a desk for $10 overnight (EST hours) and billed the hours after 2 nights.
In Cebu, $960/month is more than enough to live comfortably. So I realized I made an entire months living (traveling) expenses in one day of work. That's almost like the "2 hour work week"

- therebedragons 9y agoYep, that's the lesson! But seriously, what are the rules here? I went OS for 6 months once (started out as 1) and worked the whole time. I billed through my AU company, but still, was I allowed to work in those places?
