I lived in 5 countries in 10 years, and I'm not up for geo-arbitrage to scrap a few more dollars in my income. If I got a global remote job, rather than moving halfway across the world, I rather move close to my family and friends.
Plus, some countries in LATAM have the same issues we dislike about the US but magnified (e.g. inequality).

- totallywrong 3y agoIt's not geo-arbitrage, the extra income is a side benefit. For me personally, I'm happier in these parts, and I too lived in very many places. I enjoy the slower pace of life, greater sense of community, and lesser individualism. Living in the West today feels like constant competition. But of course it's far from perfect and not for everyone.
