The winning idea seems to be employed in SV and get SV salaries and then move to a farm in Europe and work remotely.
This is easy to do if you are an US citizen. I wonder how us, poor Europeans, can do the same thing.
- jonasdegendt 4y agoI'm in Belgium and a colleague of mine just bought a house and moved to Italy, near Bergamo whilst staying employed with us. I'm sure she's doing more than fine financially, even without a SV wage. So the trick's to be Western/Northern European, and move to Southern Europe. /s There's still plenty of remote opportunities with good pay in Europe that could sustain this kind of living.

- whiplash451 4y agoHow do you convince your SV-based company that the 9h time difference will be fine?
- whiplash451 4y agoEasy until you try to open a bank account in a French bank with US citizenship. Good luck with that.

- moltar 4y agoConsidering software developers in Portugal make €2K/mo and are still able to “survive” in the cities, I’m sure you don’t need a SV salary to live well in the rural area.
- bogomipz 4y ago>"This is easy to do if you are an US citizen." Is it? Isn't there the issue that you can't just move to the EU as a US citizen unless you get hired by a European company which means no more SV salary.
