    if you can afford to live inside the US at all, you can afford to live outside of the United States as long as you want at a much higher quality of life.

    You are not in contact with reality.

      Bruh americans earn on average 4x the cash people in central and eastern Europe do. For same jobs, 2x is often the norm. The prices of groceries are maybe 80% of the groceries in the US. If you can afford to pay $1k in rent, then you can afford to pay $250.

      “You are not in contact with reality.”

      go ahead, struggle to prove me wrong.

      I’ve been traveling like this for over a decade, so this should be funny.

            Look, your grace, those things that appear over there aren’t giants but windmills, and what looks like their arms are the sails that are turned by the wind and make the grindstone move.

              “Look, your grace”

              mhmm?

              “there aren’t giants but windmills…”

              so you’re going to belabor your ignorance about travel by swearing that travel isn’t real?

              love it?

              unfortunately for you, travel is real, and there’s no real argument for your claim that it isn’t, so not a great first step for you.

              but I’m eager to see where you go next.

              evidence that other countries don’t exist?

              some other wildly false claim based on your anxiety and delusions?

              do it, Don.
