have fun working for peanuts as a english teach then

start being gay

@Deleted User how old are you?

then I suggest you don't throw numbers around but just pick a country of your liking, a job that seems exciting and go have fun abroad for a few years without caring too much about finance

>tfw I'm investing a lot of time and energy in learning Chinese, so I can move to Taiwan where I will probably not even earn 1/4 of what I earn here

happiness is not exclusively about money, although money is a factor

Ah I am not in a position to just "go have fun"

And investing a lot of time for a comparatively meagre reward is not something that intend to do either. I guess I'll just stow this plan away for the time being and see where I end up

you most probably have your reasons. But if I may share, I spent my past years in building up my career and now I regret that I didn't just go have fun a while longer instead

I try to find that fine line between full time career building (which I am doing now) and enjoying a decent life. The how and where to do so is not yet set in stone however

Sooner or later you would want to build anyway. So if I were you I'd have no regrets, unless you feel like you wasted your youth

Well I think life is about doing things you would enjoy, which is why I wouldn't recommend going to china

@Deleted User of course, what I wanted to say is, later is better than sooner. Once you're in your career, you can't just say "I'll go to China for a year". Now, you (probably?) can

I agree with porcorosso, working abroad doesn't always make big bucks unless you get connections before you go, or work your way around once you are there

its mostly for the adventure

the people making real money abroad work for a company in their home country already (IE. I'm american, and if I work for an american firm who wants to open business in china)

if you want money, stay put. maybe look for jobs before you go.

Just win the lottery mens

i was told in Taiwan they have a government lottery thing for whenever you buy shit

In America they do also but the prize is getting shot

And in Sweden your wife gets impregnated by a migrant

Nice.

In Taiwan, the receipt lottery system is funded by extreme taxation of the 'wealthy'. as well as charging high fees to businesses that agree to use the national receipt system

Many vendors offer to sell you things without the receipt in exchange for a 10% discount approximate

the Taiwanese receipt lottery was also a way to prevent tax evasion

customers will want the receipt, the numbers are tracked

if you win the government lottery and the receipt number has not been registered by the business, the transaction was a tax evasion

Interesting.

I won 200 nt$ in that lottery last time, by buying a 30 nt$ snack in 7-11

@porco nice and a clever way to battle tax evasion too

"A dinosaur from China sported a "bandit mask" pattern in the feathers on its face, scientists have said."

This makes sense.

Thievy prehistoric chinks

Even the Chinasaurs, man...

if you really like a Chinese girl, call her 花心 (huaxin, flower heart) - it's a very kind compliment about her personality

D O U B T

Why would he lie lol

exactly. if a girl has a flower heart, how could it ever be something bad?

I hate the internet
