I'm a 26 year old male virgin. I run a website that makes $2000-2500 per month - poverty level in the good old USA. I've got $6000 in savings. My life in the US is awful. I look in the mirror and see a normal guy, but to everyone else I'm a social leper who isn't worth the time of day. My last girlfriend was in 9th grade, and that's not for a lack of trying. I repel everyone and I don't know why. I want to try living in other parts of the world, particularly places where $2000 USD per month goes a long way and American men are sought by the local women. Any other bro-bots left the USA for greener pastures? Any recommendations? Right now I'm thinking Thailand or Philippines.

get a real job you fucking looser. you don't need to work 24/7 on that website

>>9958626 Currently stuck here too, but Thailand and Philippines sound ideal. You can live like a kind with that amount of money, there are tons of decent women that will do anything just to escape poverty and the women generally follow the old fashioned sexist roles. You could easily get a loyal and loving wife.

>>9958634 Doing what? I've got no skills or training. I've been self-employed since 18 years old operating web businesses. I used to have $50k in the bank but I spent a lot of failed start-ups / projects. As if getting a job is the answer to my happiness, spending what's left of my youth toiling 40hrs/week for a pittance. Fuck that.

>>9958669 It's a hip-hop blog, I make money off ads and promoting up-and-coming artists music. Not very exciting but it pays the bills.

>>9958626 Live here in La Paz, b.c.s in mexico Theres sun, its not a big city but still urban, I guess if you're a gringo then you should stand out, with 2000 dollars a month that would put you a long way here, rent for a 2 bedroom small house is about maybe 200$ a month, foods cheap, tacos are great, dollars will get you a long way here

>>9958728 But don't you think cultural disparity will impede your efforts to relate to other people? If you feel ostracized in your country, what makes you think you'll survive in a foreign land where you don't know anybody? Reconsider your options with more focus; understand every possible corollary of them.

>>9958626 2000 a month for sitting on the pc all day? Nigga in greece you work 12 hours a day for 400 dollars a month and you don't even get insurance.

>>9958718 Not really any gangs, just edgy teenagers, drugs well the usual weed, coke, not hard to find but as it name says it (La Paz) it means peace in spanish, it is the lowest homocide city in mexico, the safest as I would say, white people usual come for vacation or go to Cabo, id say they are pretty well looked here , so yeah its safe for everyone. The mexican women, well not very sure what to say, they come in all size and colors, but them bitches love fuckers who talk english or are ''foreign''

>>9958742 It's gotten to the point where ANY place would be better than where I am. It's expensive, I have 1 friend who I see once every 2 months, family I rarely see. I know there will be language barriers in some cases. I am willing to learn new languages if I can see a future in one of these places.

South East Asia is pretty welcoming for foreigners. Living is extremely cheap, so the equivalent of $2000 will go a long way.

>>9958778 I worked a job at 18 and I've done everything in my power to free myself from having to work for someone else ever since. Pissing 40hrs a week of my youth down the toilet? You're fucking crazy if you think that'll bring me any happiness whatsoever.

in my opinion you should really just consider as I said living here in mexico b.c.s (its below california) here in La Paz as I said well, pretty much summer all year long, not much cold , I guess people are heartwarming, safest city in mexico, you could seriuosly get a girl unless you're butt ugly, but in any case its all good here in the baja ;)

>>9958742 If he feels ostracized in his own country he has no reason not to go. The worst thing that can happen is he experiences more of the same, but in a country where he's rich.

>>9958801 For instance in Thailand taxis are so cheap, that you might as well not bother with public transport. A good meal will be less than $5, probably as little as $2 in many cases. And this is freshly made, good shit, not fast food. Rent can be dirt cheap as well. Check out this website to get a feel. http://th.easyroommate.com/

Hey OP, I'm in a semi-similar situation. Work full time as a software developer but make an extra $800-1100 a month selling regulation compliance software for my industry. It's very boring but hoping to get it making consistant income (the big issue) by next Summer then I'm heading off somewhere. I think I could probably make up the loss with freelancing. I'll still be working 40 hours a week but I'd have the evenings and weekends. I'm thinking China, one of the larger cities away from the heavy industry. It's safe, friendly, cheap as you want, western goods available and friendly women. Brazil looks like another great place. If you have freedom of location and can control your time, you can get /fit/, go out and meet girls, generally improve yourself easily.

>>9958767 >it's only about 5hrs of work per week You got 35hrs+ more a week than the average joe, nearly twice that if you factor in being single with no wife or children that requires time, and you say you're poor? Fucker, you're RICH, a goddamn millionaire in something worth much more than money - TIME. Something you only get so much of before it runs out, before you die. You don't need to move to another country, it wouldn't solve your problem, it would just follow you, which is your inability to manage and exploit your abundance of free time. Hit the gym, read biographies, take evening classes, learn martial arts, study a language (human or programming), go hiking, learn to cook, grow your own spices, volunteer, join some club related to your interests, whatever. There is a shitload you can do that most cannot, things that cost nothing or very little. TLDR: You're rich bitch

>>9958840 Does time/money matter when you're cripplingly lonely and on the verge of an hero? I'm not saying I'm gonna move to a country and live there til I'm 80. I just need to shake things up.

>>9958868 Yes. You have the time and money to start eating healthy (fruits/veg/meat) which in every study ever has massivly improved depression. You can also join social clubs (sports/dildo collecting/comedy clubs) and fit your schedule around them. I'd recommend doing those two.

I escaped Australia and have loved almost every day since I left. I live in Taiwan, it is definitely worth considering. I think it is a lot better than the Philippines, but I would advise you to do some research before deciding.
