In all sincerity, how do you get out and find work and should you? I’m 40F and have barely left this country. I don’t know how to make a better life for me and my children and I’m not even sure that this isn’t still the ‘safest place’ as the saying has always been. Are all governments corrupt? Are they all at risk of war? Are rich people and corporations given legal passes and tax breaks everywhere? Is there gang violence, racism and sexism everywhere? I want to live without fear that my kids could be killed by some idiot with guns, I want our family to live a life free from servitude just to to pay for car+home+health insurance and not worry we could die simply because we couldn’t afford to pay the highest price for medical care in the world, and I want to know the government or a corporation won’t be allowed to harm people and places with toxic chemicals or skipping safety measures. I want to be more than fuel for capitalism. This is a serious question. I’ve intentionally left my home country out but I’m sure you have guessed.

    I was just talking about this.

    I don’t know about 40s but when i was in my last 20s i movie to another country and started new, i literally had the close on my back, my passport and a camera.

    I hated everything about my life a this was my last attempt at making something of it, it was fly or bie and did fly.

    The start was rough but so was every before this but within the the fist month i had my kind of dream job, something i had wanted to do since i was a kid and by the second month i met my now wife and we 4 kids and 3 cats, life if perfect.

    And yes maybe that would of happened if i had stayed put or it could of gotten worse or moving could of been but it the time is it seemed like a good idea and the only way out.
