Today’s world offers more ways to make money than ever before.
This can create incredible opportunities for people looking to move overseas but continue to earn an income.
In the past, the only way to earn an income overseas was to get a local job in the country that you moved to.
This can be complicated. In most cases, you need to speak the local language at a business-proficient level.
Then comes the hurdle of obtaining a work permit. These are typically harder to access than the average business or retiree-residency visa.
Most countries reserve the majority of income-producing opportunities for their citizens. They limit how many foreign employees a company can have. Some restrict specialized fields, like medicine or law,to citizens.
There are some jobs that foreigners can get to earn local income, like consulting, hospitality, and teaching…
But because of the opportunities created by the remote working movement, you’re no longer limited to these. And your ability to earn money overseas isn’t tied to your language abilities or whether you can get a work permit.
In fact, there are very few limits on what you can do to earn money nowadays. A laptop, an internet connection, and some sort of skill to offer are all you need to get started.
