People outside the US, how do you feel US expats or exiles would do in your country or region? (lemmy.world)

NGL, not asking for a friend. Given the current trends in US politics, it seems prudent to at least look into it.

Most of the online content on the topic seems to be by immigration attorneys hustling ultra rich people. I'm not ultra rich. I have a job in tech, could work remotely, also have enough assets to not desperately need money if the cost of living were low enough.

I am a native English speaker, fluent enough in Spanish to survive in a Spanish speaking country. I am old, male, cis, hetero, basically asexual at this point. I am outgoing, comfortable among strangers.

What's good and bad about where you live? Would it be OK for a outsider, newcomer?

Does establishing some kind of ancestry actually do anything? I did a whole report on my great great grandfather on my mother's side and learned about the name and the clan. Still remember the motto and official plaid and all that jazz. Never once considered it'd ever be relevant to anything.

It is fun seeing "nec sorte, nec fato" pop up ocassionally tho.

It might allow you to join the clan as a social club, essentially. A fair few of them have newsletters and run events where they get together, so it can be a good network. It doesn't affect the day-to-day life of the average person, though
