You make money in America, and then take that money to live the American dream in another country.

I moved to Germany for 5 years, and returning to America has been my biggest regret in life. It's a shithole compared to Germany, which has far better work-life balance, safer, cleaner, food is healthier, healthcare is superior and freely available. No homeless camps, no ghettos. The populace is much more informed and engaged. Already planning to go back and never return.

One of the reasons why I don't have kids and decided to never have kids is because I don't want them to end up suffering in the future.

Even if we manage to not have war on our soil, our children's children are saddled with trillions in debt. This is no kind of life for them. We are considering leaving.

If there is an American dream? You have to be asleep to believe it! > George Carlin

The United States is a nation without a soul.

No sir. Living in your car is the new American dream! 😂

A huge problem is that MONEY in America became a religion 🇺🇸 💰

"People aren't feeling at home in America." That is so spot on. That is exactly how I feel. Thank you for making this video!

I met a guy in the town that I live in who told me he chose to be homeless. He had no interest in having a house or a car, he wanted to be homeless. This is his American dream you could say. He was happy, smiling, and loved life. Got on his bike and rode away.

Big issue in America is the work-life balance !!

Australia is no better! Life is a misery here these days. Everyone feels they need an escape to a better place where they can just relax, connect with other humans and nature and live their life without constant stress, anxiety and government overreach. But where? How? This is life in late stage capitalism and it's killing us all, mind body and soul!

Left the USA in 2017. I love my homeland but there’s many other places to see! 😊

You can buy a nice villa in the italian countryside for under $50K. You can barely buy a decent new car in US for 50k, let alone a place to live in.

“Before you leave America, see America.” Awesome advice; 8 out 10 people are awesome and the media does not reflect that.

I am wanting to leave the USA in the worst possible way! We have been brainwashed all our lives into thinking the USA is the best. The reality is that there are much better places to live and many are realizing this now. There is no perfect country; however, there are many options much better than USA

I have to disagree. Once I started traveling out of the country and got a taste other cultures and the friendlieness of the people my whole aspect of life has changed. I don't enjoy living here and especially as a black person at all it is so stressful. Everyone looks so angry ..who wants to deal with that all the time? I don't even love this country enough to wanna change. I am getting my affairs in order to be gone. I personally have family members who have left and is living their best life outside the US who wish they would have left sooner and don't plan on coming back. Those who decide to stay I don't judge them but this country is not for me!

The average person cannot achieve the American dream, especially not alone, even with college degrees sometimes.

I reside in Japan, and it’s truly a place I adore. Witnessing four and five-year-olds strolling to school or shops independently, carefree, encapsulates the serene lifestyle here. My living expenses total just 1800, covering all bills, yet I dwell in a splendid waterfront apartment-one of the finest. Dining out fills about four evenings a week, and with two dependents, life feels enriched and balanced.

Hell yeah. Lets break free from the government plantation and RUN

I have been living abroad for almost two years. I am in Mexico. Living abroad is not as easy as you think it is. The number one thing is learn the language no matter what people say.

Things have changed, it's become very hard or impossible to pay bills for so many of us employed folks. For the first time, even though I have a job I'm facing the possibility of losing my apartment, getting my power disconnected and can't pay my car insurance.

It's a hard-knock life here in the West, leave America while you can!!!

The US has very beautiful scenery and a lot of people our amazing, but the people who run country has destroyed the moral of people. I’m a 50 year old man with a family and I been telling my kids to leave and I’m looking into leaving. Tim you know very very well from a lot of your videos how the system operates and how the American dream is to enrich others. If people are able it’s best to leave if able, there is currently nothing positive about American

As long as I been here I've never lived the American Dream because it wasn't for me. I regret that I didn't leave America in 2020.

I'm gonna get a t-shirt that say" if they can divide us, they can control us"

Idk. I'm in Japan rn and I'm in love with this place. I wasn't seriously considering leaving America permanently until now.

Leaving America is my current topic of discussion. I have friends who were here in America and they went back to their homelands and we are talking about me immigrating to one of their homelands. I no longer trust America, I don’t trust the Government, I don’t trust the “healthcare system” and I most certainly don’t trust the food in the grocery store. And we are taxed to death. I don’t watch television at all. Leaving America is definitely a real possibility for me within the current year.

In my opinion the new "American Dream" is being debt free and having enough money to not work 2 jobs. I never wanted the house, wife, kids, and college kind of life.

Taxation and politics is driving me to consider leaving the U.S. To travel around the U.S. costs a small fortune due to inflation.

I am 77, when is striving to survive in this wicked nation will end......when death come.

I’ve been walking the Camino de Santiago in Spain. Today it’s been 23 days I’ve been walking. I’ve met people from all over the world. Every place has similar problems to the US. There no perfect place! I love Spain and love traveling but I’m even more grateful for the access to everything that I have in the US.

Greed is 100% responsible for most of our problems….

I'm sure it's fantastic for you Tim, but some of us are trying to raise children and deal with some really heavy financial burdens and responsibilities and it's hell.

My wife and I left the US a few years ago for South America and life’s been great ! Here a social security check from a husband and wife buys an upscale life! Great medical and weather and warm people ! I didn’t work a lifetime to share a chicken dinner and now we have the retirement we dreamed about. Lots digital nomads too !

Tim in all my travels the past 10 years I've talked to people who have mentioned this as well..10-15 years ago people would say yeah they want to move out of their current home state because they perceived a better state for them..Now the past 5 years some people are saying due to violence, Healthcare, costs of living in general,high rent and housing costs they are saying let's get out of US..while the getting is good..I know lots of people who have started traveling who never traveled before because they looking for a place to settle..so yeah you right on the money with this live bro..Great stuff thanks brother Tim!!👍👍

I left 6 years ago to Spain and instantly was happier and healthier. I lost weight and start enjoying life. I lived in the US for 2 decades in 4 States, traveled across and everywhere was the same hustle culture. We have in Spain National Parks and beaches for free. No shootings, free healthcare and universities. Show me one State in the US that has universal healthcare or university? Doesn’t matter where you are in America the system is the same. And America is not affordable period. Travel out of US and you will see.

It's not new! It started about 10 years ago. I been traveling for 10 years throughout Europe and I have been living and thriving more abroad. I decided to stay abroad 5 years ago and I feel mentally, financially, and safer here in Europe, and I decided Vienna Austria at the moment is better for me. Personally I enjoy my single life, love is welcomed but I am great also when I am Single.

Love ya Tim. Your talks always calm me down. My wife and I are of retirement age. We are fortunate to live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It is peaceful and beautiful here. Winters are hard, and income is low, but people still act like neighbors here. We own a little house that we bought 20 years ago, so we’ll be ok. It’s a great place to make a difference and share any extra that we have. It’s easy to effect positive change in rural America. If we shift toward love over fear , we become useful and helpful.

Tim is right on. I live in Bangkok. Moved here so I wouldn't have to work like a dog, and can have a decent standard of living. I'm in a luxury building on lovely grounds, delicious food everywhere, beautiful women all around me and can live stress free within my means. So why is this seemingly idyllic lifestyle unsustainable for me ? Because i VERY MUCH miss my own culture, in a land where people speak my language and get my sense of humor, and am not looked upon as a foreigner (that really gets old after a while). I'm just gonna be honest here - expats I know that have relationships with Thai (beautiful & young) are ultimately unhappy. I would love to walk into a cafe, sit down, and have a nice conversation with the locals also having their morning coffee. People don't speak to each other here. Now I'm not saying this goes for all of Thailand, or even for other expats living here. I'm just one person saying that I have found all the answers and conveniences by leaving the country - except it doesn't really work.... for me. Just keep this in mind if you're surfing all those "Why I moved to Thailand" videos. Peace.

I'm afraid in the future the new American dream will be to not exist anymore. I am so glad I didn't bring any children into this world to suffer. Meanwhile my delulu sis just had her 4th child.

I’m 61 and a disabled combat veteran. When I looked up the currency exchange rates between the US dollar and Mexico, the Philippines and Colombia, a VERY bright light went off. My pension’s not very large but I have no significant debt. But in any of those countries (and a few others), I’m effectively a 1%er the instant I step off a plane. Mix in the growing political instability and the healthcare system and blowing this pop stand looks better by the day…

I'm moving asap. I have aspbergers and am bullied even as an adult. People here are cruel and selfish. I'm done. I have a Master's degree and deserve better than this!

America don't have a Dream

Yes! My daughter went to South Korea for a visit and stayed, so nice to live somewhere SAFE and no one steals your belongings even if you leave them in a public place!! A better country than the USA and I hope to go there myself!

It’s my dream! I just need to plan this thing out.

Btw, wanna say that prices for things here in Japan essentially haven't changed at all in 20 years.

It's too expensive to live here across the entire board

Man, thanks for saying this, Timothy. I'm European and I live in the 'happiest' country (Finland) in the world, and people here complain about the same exact issues that you listed during this livestream. Most of these issues aren't specific to the USA; rather, they're issues that most countries are currently facing. I used to be one of those people who wanted to move away from my home country because we're facing similar issues that your country is currently facing. I currently speak three languages and am learning a fourth. I have a university degree, I'm young, and I'm a skilled worker, and so on. But the point is, I have everything you need to succeed in another country, but I decided to stay for now. Why? Well, my long-term girlfriend, soon-to-be fiancée, is from Eastern Europe, and she grew up (mind my language) in a true shithole. Yet, she is the sweetest and hardest-working person I've met during my life. She has all the reasons to be bitter and angry because she truly got dealt a bad hand at life, and yet, she doesn't have a single bitter bone in her body, and she loves this country. This country gave her all the opportunities she would've never had growing up in her home country. And here I am, thinking about leaving this country because I've taken everything for granted, complaining about dumb shit, getting depressed for no reason. Like, come on, man. So, what I'm saying is that some of you people (me included) just need a good ol' cup of true suffering to appreciate everything you got. Most Western people have never experienced true hardship in their lives. Real suffering builds character and puts everything in perspective. I still want to leave my country someday since I have a dream that I want to live in the USA or Japan someday. But for now, I'll be staying and bitching less.

Voting isn't going to change anything, people are too divided to come together and do anything worthwhile. The only option left is to leave.

I can understand the moving away from America. A country divided, repealing laws, raking up laws from the 1800s, pretending that a large chunk of the country’ history is to be forgotten and not taught; outrageous ideas of making homelessness a crime; taxing retirement to the max and trying to dumb down the country by pushing trade schools instead of higher learning.

I’m a goldfish in a glass bowl, if I don’t like one side of the bowl I can swim to the other side. If I don’t like that side I can swim down to the plastic castle. However, if the bowl gets knocked off the counter I’m going DOWN WITH THE BOWL

I am well traveled and I agree that EVERY country has problems. I ❤the USA. 😊

I love it here but I need a break on a regular basis. Humans are the same everywhere, but being around polite people helps sometimes.

Yes, that why i live in costa rica

Thinking of leaving America it’s a joke here , it’s a land of nightmare not dreams !

America dream is a dream when everyone sleeping We been lied to much

I always wanted to live in Ireland but they are having housing problems of their own right now.

Tim, I know it's hard to say good bye to America, it's over, nobody can sell the states anymore. We can't stay and help fix this government's dirty work. And plus as blacks we don't belong here anyway #passportbros

I still work in the US but I live across the border in Mexico. I even started a business in Mexico that supports me. My American money is going to belize where I have a small house and the land to build my forever beach house. 4 years and I’m out!

I understand those people living, they are probably not comfortable at all with the current situation. Nature is beautiful in the US, sure, but one needs also to feel safe and have a decent life

As optimistic as Tim is, even he thought about leaving and made a plan. His "obligation" to himself and others stopped him. That's honorable. However, the realist people like me would rather watch it play out from afar. Standing on the beach as a tsaumi comes in, doesn't sound too good to me.

The last four years I’ve been wanting to move back to Germany! But it’s because I lived there from June 2006 to November 2007 and loved it! Plus I believe I will be happier living in Europe!

I left the US. Best decision I ever made. America is gone, yall.

This is an interesting conversation. Thanks Tim.

Yes the new American dream is to leave! I've been living in Thailand for over 4 years with no plans to return anytime soon. Currently typing this from Da Nang Vietnam 🇻🇳 The cost of living is super affordable here with a better quality of life 👍

Tim regardless of what is going on in our country and the world your UKposts channel gives me hope.

Thank you bro. great video

Time for people of the world to unite!

What's up Tim? I dig what you're saying. Check it out, I'm 72 years old, and the best thing I've found that best works for me is too just "stay out the way." I have traveled, and I do know if look for problems you will find what you're looking for. It's called the law of attraction. Enjoy your life and F the BS. God Bless brother. Peace!

Thank you for sharing your video. Stay blessed.

I want to leave so bad! I don't know where to start!

I dont want to leave this country permanently yet. I just go back to my old country every few years for short vacations and see if life is any better than I have in Los Angeles for 35 years and so far it is not. The grass is not always greener somewhere else but is keeping my options always open.

I got to tell you, this is a really good video, very well informed, lots of information to think about.

Well damn Tim. You gave some perspective on this. Thank you.

Very informative.Thankyou.💯🙏😇

Brother, thank you for holding this conversation in the manner which you did. You gave opinions from a variety of options and outlooks. Passion for the topic but not attacking anyone. You have a new subscriber! I look forward to watching your other videos and keeping up with new postings in the future. Cheers

I just got back from Panama City, Panama and I did run into some U.S. Ex-Pats. I personally would not leave America permanently, but I would like to stay a couple of months out of the year in Panama. I felt a connection with Panama. I have visited Canada, Jamaica, Bahamas and Iceland.

I came to this when country when I was 12. I'm now 30 and wants to leave

I have a friend who moved to Panama and love it. The problem is, for me, is that the handicap accessibility is not to the American standard.

One thing that people don't talk about is citizenship in other countries. I watch another YT content creator who is on a work visa in Prague, Czech Republic. To become a citizen, The Czech Republic requires you to be proficient in the Czech language to a certain degree. There is a language test as part of becoming a legal citizen in that country. He has tried taking Czech classes and says it's an extremely hard language to learn. He's at the age where he can stay on his work visa for awhile, but he's not sure what he wants to do after that. He loves it in Prague and does not want to come back to the United States. It will be interesting to see what happens to him. Take care Tim💕

Thailand is great, incredibly affordable but extremely low wages, and is definitely a third world country. Philippines same. China is a decent option but Chinese can be difficult people. I think best options for americans wanting to bounce: Japan, Taiwan, Mexico, South Africa (maybe), Germany.

TIM AFTER LISTENING TO THIS TOPIC TIM WE JUST GOT TO BE NICER TO EACH OTHER AND LYFT EACH OTHER UP INSTEAD OF BRINGING EACH OTHER DOWN!!! BECAUSE WE ARE ALL GOING THROUGH SOMETHING IN THIS BIG WORLD!!! THANKS FOR SHARING TIM WHAT EVER DECISION PEOPLE MAKE STAYING IN THE USA OR MOVING ON!!! GO WHERE IT MAKES YOU HAPPY🙏🏾❤️

We just came back from our first trip to Kenya and Rwanda. We are definitely making plans to relocate to Kenya! Kenyans work hard but they live life too. Food is good and organic there.

Our representatives think of themselves as our leaders and the tend to enrich themselves rather then serve their constituents. The work for pharma, food and military contractors. Everything is more expensive here except fuel. Healthcare is expensive and more about selling expensive chemicals than actual medical practice.

Oh yes. Many people have left and/or planning on leaving for so many reasons I lived in Italy and Greece. First, you have to be able and willing to make a culture change and mindset for change. Although many Americans would like to leave, they don't have the ability to make the change from a mindset. Many American men are leaving to find a lady overseas who are more traditional. Let's face it, dating and marrying in the US is just not an option for these days. Cost of living is another big issue. Retired men over 50 with low income can live much better overseas. I am looking at returning to Southern Italy or Thailand or the Philippians.

Looking forward to another hiking video

My dream is to servive me, and meet people on a higher level and leave these sleepers sleeping

My dream is to move to Cambodia. Teach English and start a business. This country is not normal 😢

The grass is always, ALWAYS greener on the other side folks. Coming from someone who's lived in eur, the UK, Ireland, the US ( currently ).

Nice video Tim

30 years in Puerto Rico moved to Florida 2006 now in NC for 3 years. No matter where you go, there you are.

I just arrived in Mexico and it'll be a sad day when and if i go back.

Agree. I think the sad fact is a lot of people just are not cut out for living overseas. Especially in third world countries. And tons of Americans are going there anyway.

There a similar word in Spanish for Dream and sleep is called SUEÑO The American “sleep “ is only when you wake up a Monday morning miserable knowing you have to work getting ripped off with more taxes and taking to home crumbs to STILL pay more sh!t and bills with a half check away of being homeless Yeah, is a tremendous sleep since you won’t sleep at ease ever !!!

Hi Tim. I have a friend that wants to move to Thailand. It sounds great to me, but I can’t move that far from the family.

I just started making $115,000 the last 2 years and now just when I thought I made it, the US housing market has me priced out. My fiancee is from Ghana 🇬🇭. As soon as we tie the knot I plan on developing the plot of land she has into a couple duplexes and eventually relocate.

Totally agree getting stuck in mental trap w/ American dream can be nightmare. Thank god I found a new idea of getting out as an abroad expat….

I love you bro !

I can attest first hand to what he’s saying. I’ve also extensively traveled the country and everything he said is true down to the dating apps. I think the root of a lot of this hopelessness is that we all love where we are from more than all those other places. We don’t wanna leave where we love, we want where we love to get better.
