Comment on What can I do with US$10K that is a good investment?
Asafum@feddit.nl 4 weeks agoThe biggest problem for some people is no country wants them.
America seems to take just about anyone given you wait decades, but every other country worth moving to has strict income or professional requirements. I’m just a worthless factory schmuck so I’m stuck here :(

Or that, yes.
Even if you suddenly cash out a lucky 10 000 USD once, a lot of countries’ income requirements still filter you out

Going about it that way is like brute forcing a password. There are myriad other solutions, and necessity is the mother of invention.

I’m not sure what you mean by that, so just to clarify what I meant: A lot of countries require you to prove you have a sustainable income, so showing them you’ve earned 2500-3000 EUR every month for the past three years, and that you already have a contract waiting for you in their country, works. Showing you received 10 000 USD once when you can’t prove a sustainable income won’t do.
This makes it hard for people to move just because they got lucky with money once.
I’m not saying it’s a good thing or not, just that this is the case.

Yes, this is known.
