I didn't just intend the question for my own situation. It was meant to educate future visitors to the forum, and anyone else who is here like I am and curious about "options for working abroad."Mr Natural wrote:He did answer the question, quite succinctly. You asked a very generalized question without any specific info about your own situation so he gave you a very general answer. A very accurate answer though if you think about it.Tsar wrote:Can you stay on topic and answer the questions?OutWest wrote:.......The only way that will happen is IF YOU CAN PROVIDE SOMETHING THE " POOR LOCALS" CANNOT.

1. What options does someone have for working abroad aside from teaching English? You did not answer this question
2. Are there any and do they pay enough for the person to have a reasonable lifestyle and not be just like a poor local? You did not any of these questions
You went off topic and provided nothing of relevance to the thread. Maybe you'll come back and actually answer the questions.
You took out the first sentence which was obviously calling me entitled. That part was common sense and did not answer my questions. In my original post I stated "What options does someone have for working abroad aside from teaching English? Are there any and do they pay enough for the person to have a reasonable lifestyle and not be just like a poor local?"
That didn't provide an answer to my question, it was a second sentence in a not-so-cleverly hidden post saying "I'm just an entitled Millennial looking to be paid multiple times that of a poor local." It totally ignored my questions.
1. What options are there besides teaching English?
2. Are there any?
3. If there are, do they pay the person a pay so they will be considered middle class or be able to have a decent traditional lifestyle, and not be like a poor local. (Answer "Yes" then list the jobs, or Answer "No," or a third option don't answer because you likely don't know)
I'm assuming Outwest was doing one or both of the following:
1. Doesn't know
2. Was calling me an "Entitled Millennial"
So no. that Snippet you quoted didn't answer my question or give me any useful information. Maybe if some uneducated dullard from a ghetto or a mindless ignorant American wanting to be proactive and learn to stop being ignorant read Outwest's post, they might think of reading about economics and learning about business, but for someone like me who is educated, enlightened, and knowledgeable it provides absolutely ZERO benefit to me. I know how the world works. A person that read my question would have known that. Instead Outwest either misread it or misinterpreted it then posted that response. I thought he would come in and offer some updated information after I respectfully gave my opinion on his post.
