FAQ

how do you travel long-term?

The cost of living in most countries is around $500 USD a month for transportation, rent, utilities and food altogether; teaching English pays $2000 USD a month with zero qualifications or experience.

every month I taught English, I had a few exrra months of my cost of living.

I taught English for about 7 years.

as long as you’re making more than 500 USD a month remotely in any job, you can travel long-term.

if you want to backpack, CoL shoots down to $200 a month real quick.

  • really good article with a couple surprises in there.

    "some people speculated that, because of the political pressure against it, its release must have been an act of resistance by someone within the IRS. But the open sourcing of the program was always part of the plan, and was required by a law called the SHARE IT Act. It happened “fully above board, which is honestly more of a feat!,” Given told 404 Media. “This has been in the works since last year.”

    Vinton told 404 Media in a phone call that the open sourcing of Direct File “is just good government.”

    “All code paid for by taxpayer dollars should be open source, available for comment, for feedback, for people to build on and for people in other agencies to replicate. It saves everyone money and it is our [taxpayers’] IP,” she said. “This is just good government and should absolutely be the standard that government technologists are held to.”"
