Without skills you can't do anything, anywhere. Period, end of story. There is no magical place on this planet where you can show up and people pay you for just being you.
My cousin even speaks fluent Japanese, is a Japanese citizen yet he can hardly do anything but teach english in Tokyo but he loves it.
At least you took that leap of faith and moved abroad. Some of these people are just sitting and spitting poison in all directions. It doesn't help them.
There's plenty of opportunity to make a living everywhere in the first world as long as you have something to offer. Even minimal skills people still make it by, even something like data entry you should be able toake a decent living.
And don't ever mock the almighty sauerkraut. I eat 1,5 liters a week and my pooping sessions have never been better in my life.
Why did this happen in China?

Lots of IT jobs around at the moment, especially here in the UK. I dared upload a new CV to a job board and got 27 phone calls in one day.
There are IT jobs overseas as well. But this week I looked at jobs in Japan and you can earn just as much teaching English, and you don't need to speak Japanese (which you do for most IT jobs).

I was Happier Abroad for a while but Covid killed that off.

So in Japan ..an ESL teacher can make the same amount as a programmer? I don't believe in that. I thought that market for ESL teachers in places like Korea and Japan is becoming over staturated and that' why some of these esl teacher are heading to China.
The problem with ESL teaching is that I don't think it has a long term future..and there is cap in how much you make unless you open up your own school.

Korea is probably still the best place to save money since they pay for your flights. Taiwan is also really good due to the high salaries and low costs of living. Japan pays a decent salary, but unless you're in the countryside, expenses will likely eat away at your paycheck. China has a lower cost of living, but the payment isn't always that good (enough to live off of, but not necessarily enough to save big money).chanta76 wrote:So in Japan ..an ESL teacher can make the same amount as a programmer?

That said, Taiwan and China are the places where foreign ESL teachers make more than the average local; in Japan and Korea they seem to make less.

You are a great man Cornfed. I am happy that these chicks adore you.
Maybe you have an Asian soul. Maybe you deserve to be cheered.
How can I argue? Chinese people have the highest IQs on earth. In fact American universities have to restrict the number of Chinese people because they excel too much.
FACT-
China has the highest IQ China (105., Hong Kong (105.7), Korea and Taiwan (both 104.6), and Japan (104.2)
European/White: 99
Latino Americans: 89
African-Americans: 85

1. A tall, broad, skinny man in his 40s with a toothbrush mustache who had given up on looking youthful.
2. A half Filipina half English chick in her early 20s who was big boned and hot and good looking.
3. A brownskinned chick in her 30s who was an aerobics instructor, and so looked hot.
4. A flabby but muscular short white guy in his 30s who looked athletic.
We all know the answer, but I wonder why? Why was I so popular?
