For maximum effect, you'll want to telecommute. Work in the Bay Area, live in Malawi. I bet you can find a reliable Internet connection in Nkata Bay and a room for $3/night. Coupled with a middle of the road $100/hr contract rate, you should be able to save a few pennies. It's the future. There's no reason to live in a city unless you want to. Since your goal is max bang for the buck, the obvious choice is to live in the sticks and work over the Internet. Well chosen. It's nice out here!
