i just want to get an understanding on how you all do it. I dont want to copy the things you all do.
Look at it from my pov . I just want good information so i can plan a move to the dr within two years. From what i have seen you all have very good information and i really do think all your tips help me make a plan that i can stick to and one that will work for me.
Thats the last thing i want to do. You know live the life of another. I left nyc when i was 18 for the Navy and now I am ready to move on to the next thing stage.
I'm tentatively looking to make a similar move as you, but I have a longer deadline; within five to ten years.
My specialty in New York is Information Technology. I've been in IT for 13 years specializing in desktop support, servers and networking.
It turns out there isn't much for me to do out there in my field of expertise, and if there is I'm lucky to score much money at all.
My general consensus from the folks in here is that most probably live off their off-shore pensions and are happy with a barebones life; very casual and rare outing or two and a very minimal cost of living.
And that living situation can work for people. It would personally work for me if I had a steady income to rely on. Income and steady don't seem to belong in the same sentence in DR's current economy.
