As a White man living in Asia with my White wife and White children I strongly discourage you from moving before at least being married. Otherwise you'll end up like most of the expats I know here, unhappy in a disfunctional marriage with a yellow woman and children that don't look like you and with which you share nothing.

You won't be able to transmit your values and your culture, you'll be seen as a human ATM by your wife and children (it's normal in Asia) and your grand children will look fully chinky.

You'll have lived a mediocre life on foreign land and will have left nothing behind.
 
It might be economic if you work remotely but that's where the benefits end unless you're a degenerate sexpat. Run the mental simulation and you'll see that it won't end well at some point for you or your offspring. I recommend not doing this unless you belong in said shithole.
 
It doesn't get mentioned often, but if you're close to the age of retirement then you could always apply for a pensioner's visa in Panama. I've heard really great things about the program.
 
I miss living in Thailand so much. Maybe its just nostalgia but the best time of my life was living in Pattaya in 2024. I'm working in BigLaw but am considering just quitting and going back, but I think the golden era of WFH jobs are over. How do people other than retirees finance being an expat these days?

There's something really special about Thailand. I always hated the negative stereotypes about the place though - when people hear that you were there, they act like you only went for the sex or the drugs, but there's so much more about Thailand that makes it unique: great weather, friendly people, unique culture, fresh seafood, etc., etc..

I think that WFH jobs are still available, but nepotism and networking play a bigger role than before. I had some colleagues that were looking for work in Thailand earlier this year, and they reported back that the job market was tight. When I visited earlier this year, a lot of the foreigners I spoke with said the same.
 
People are giving you a hard time but I get it. You've got mental problems however they are assuming the mental problems are all because you suck when in fact some or most of them might be because you are being oppressed and mildly persecuted. You need to travel in order to figure this out. Sell all your shit and go teach English.
 
The only correct way of expatting is living with whites, marrying whites, and treating third worlders as cattle to extract the few money they have.
