Happened to me once in Thailand, I was very surprised.

Truly USA is an overpriced country with the only good thing being that jobs are high paying… and that’s it.

I think the best thing in life is to have a remote job somehow + travel 50% of the time + stay w friends and family 50% of the time

> USA is an overpriced country

The USA is ranked sixth in purchasing power in the world, meaning we are definitionally underpriced.

The countries that have even more purchasing power are: Norway, Macau, Bermuda, Singapore, and Luxembourg.

		Let's see... two tiny countries that specialize in finance, a city-state that is the historic trade hub for the region, another that is the historic gambling hub for the region, and a low-population country that won the oil lottery and has been smart enough not to let its residents get high on their own supply, thus avoiding the worst of "the resource curse."

		Idk, as an European, coming to US 20/10 years ago was cheaper than traveling Europe. Today? You're easily paying 3/400$ per night in Manhattan and other cities. Same is true for dining, museums, transport. Everything is insanely expensive compared to what it was just few years ago. Services are even more expensive.
