Job Satisfaction
You may find it best to become an expat.
You pretty much stole my answer.. but then again, my answer has probably become fairly predictable by now .
CCS, if you are making , as you said ‘really good money’- then im guessing you have some sort of nest egg put away .. if it were me, i would consolidate whatever resources i had, sell whatever else i had- take it all and relocate to a country where your American dollars go 5-10 times as far as they do in America.. not saying youll never have to work again, but my guess is that would give you a couple of years to get settled in and figure it out.. find some remote work, or teach yoga like most of the other white girls do lol .. doesnt need to be Thailand, or Asia.. there is no perfect place, and thank god b/c if there were then everyone would be flocking there.. you live in CA, my understanding is that a huge portion of Californians are moving to Mexico.. maybe look at Belize, Costa Rica…. Italy, maybe not in one of the metros but more affordable countryside areas.. i dont have all the answers, but i do know what the answer is NOT- and that is America , where the whole setup is designed to keep us working as modern day slaves, starting when they promote credit cards to college kids- and then it never ends .
