If you okay to live like vietnamese person do yes you can live on $700 just fine. Especily if you single, healthy and love driving on motorbikes through rain and take a bit of risks.
Plus health insurance like Cigna for $100-200 unless you want to pay $10,000-20,000 in vinmec if you crash on a motorbike or get other serious sickness.
Plus border runs like $200-300 three times a year or often for cheaper depend on your paasport.
Problem that I doubt its how average SWE on HN imagine "comfortable" living.
Then if you have a partner who is not remote worker and kids there will be other surpeises for you.
- Paradigm2020 3mo agoThe average vietnamese person in Saigon earns <400$ a month. Why would you go to vinmec if you can use google translate / chatgpt to gwt better and cheaper service. Border runs default are 4 times a year but only need to cost 140$ each or cheaper if you're willing to organize / drive yourself. Comfortable is subjective and humans can change. Yay. Well if you wanna move the posts and all... But even then with ai etc a degree becomes less relevant rather than your /their problem solving ability
