They keep raising prices, stating that it’s due to inflation, but then they keep having record profits.

Meanwhile, the average American can barely afford rent or food nowadays.

What are we to do? Vote? I have been but that doesn’t seem to do much since I’m just voting for a representative that makes the actual decisions.

      No you won’t. It’s much cheaper to travel than you are pretending.

      My numbers are from experience and current ticket prices.

      It’s under $300 right now to fly to most countries in South America or Europe, the Bahamas, under $500 to fly anywhere in Asia and this is the most expensive time of the year because of the lunar New Year, my ticket last month was 270 usd from new York to Hong Kong.

          Haha, no I’m definitely not.

          Someone claimed specifically that it cost tens of thousands of dollars to travel to another country after I claimed these exact prices.

              Nobody said they were. People asked about the cost of a flight, I provided the relevant current data.

              But you’re grossly exaggerating the difficulty of moving abroad, especially for Americans. You’re also wrong on most of your points, you sound like you have no experience living abroad.

              There are 148 visa-free countries Americans can live in perpetually, many for initial stays of several months, or you can buy a visa for a nominal fee and stay as long as you like, reapplying every several years or more.

              You do not need a lawyer to move to these places. You do not need a lawyer for your visas.

              You do not need a place to stay “accounted for” or a job already secured.

              You sound scared and are obviously ignorant about the practicalities of moving abroad, but don’t make shit up that is so easily disproven and frankly ridiculous.

              Ask your questions. I’ve answered others in detail and have so far backed up everything I’ve said with screenshots and simple fact checks.

                  Again, you’re the only person trying to make that false equivocation, apparently because you have no leg to stand on.

                  Since you keep trying to scare people based on your own baseless, ignorant fears, I’ll say that the costs of moving to most of these countries permanently is not much more than the cost of traveling there, for the benefit of anyone trying to learn
