I had a great (free) conversation yesterday with a couple looking to get out of the US. Their dream is to own a villa in Italy, so I hooked them up with my friend who helps people move to Italy!
If you want to find options outside of the US, hit me up!

Soโ€ฆI guess I should post more updates here, huh? It feels weird to post personal stuff in this short of a formatโ€ฆbut weโ€™ve spent the past week fighting off the most miserable virus ever. Ugh.

Many people say Rio de Janeiro is incredibly dangerous, but I can tell you from living there, I felt much safer there than in the US and to the extent that there was violence, it felt much more predictable and avoidable.

There are plenty of places that are better than the US, and there are places where they have different problems than in the US. There are plenty of places where it's tough to get a job there, but if you have a solid job/client base you can live there very happily as a digital nomad.

Note: I have no idea what living in these places is like, but I also think a) it's good to know your options and b) there is definitely a false narrative in the US that everywhere has problems and so the US is just as bad as everywhere else. That is absolutely not true.

I've been posting a bit about options for folks with European ancestry to get dual citizenship, but what about folks with African ancestry? Apparently there are a number of countries, including South Africa, that offer dual citizenship to African Americans.

The jig is up. GTF over it. Bidenโ€™s pardon of Hunter should make zero difference in the real world. Any coverage of โ€œcriticismโ€ of that is you relegating your duty to cover the things that matter, and/or actively trying to lick Trumpโ€™s ass.

โ€ฆseriously media? Youโ€™re criticizing Biden for pardoning Hunter?
The country just ELECTED a convicted felon, who is actively appointing other criminals (including at least one person heโ€™s pardoned).

In my Dutch class here in the Netherlands they were teaching us about the political system & they had a graph where one axis was progressive to (Iโ€™m blanking) and the other was liberal to conservative.

Certain Americans *ahem* were upset about the cost of food in the US, so they voted for the guy whose plan is to deport most of their agricultural workforce and just straight up raise prices on food coming in from other places.
Brilliant.

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens.

Donโ€™t think it wonโ€™t happen again when they come for the โ€œundocumented.โ€
