Maybe I’m missing the point, but COL in other countries is also only a fraction of the US’s. We don’t live in hunger and squalor over here, you know. To move, you won’t need significant savings.
No, the real issue, as with all migration from high- to low-wage countries, is that you cannot easily return for retirement because you’re not going to be able to save enough for the US’s housings prices or rents.

the biggest things in the way here are going to citizenship, the US has really lax citizenship most of the time, compared to a lot of other countries especially.
And your job, assuming you don’t work in a large national business, or from home, in a way that they’re willing to accommodate.
