The money you make there must go pretty far though. What do you do for work? Are you Vietnamese or a foreigner? Sorry I'm just curious. I've been out there a few times and was considering bootstrapping a startup out there due to the low cost.
- jawngee 12y agoI do consulting work for clients back in NYC, though not as much as I used to. The bulk of my time is spent on my video editing app: https://vimeo.com/110889552 https://vimeo.com/110889552 Yes, money goes very far here, but you are kind of getting what you pay for. My apartment is nice, but the water if full of arsenic. My internet connection is great, when the underwater AAG cable isn't being attacked by sharks. The food is awesome, until a few hours later when I'm popping pepto like candy. Sorry, I'm really sour grapes on this place at the moment. The first two years were amazing, but like once you are really living here, the shortcomings of the place become all too apparent.
- jamra 12y agoYou've got good reason to be sour grapes. Hang in there man. I was on the border of moving there for a short time ~1 year for a large project. The project didn't take off quite as expected so now I'm trying to get things done remotely. After watching the video on your link, I'm a little worried about your health. You sound very sad. Remember you can always take your wife to the states with you. Good luck buddy.
