Ever thought about selling all your shit and move?

12-21-2007, 03:28 PM

So we had this discussion today, after we saw the movie "the heartbreak kid" with ben stiller. Good movie.

In the end, he sells his company in the states and moves to mexico and starts a new company there. A company where you can rent diving stuff from.

So we had this discussion, that a lot of people wish that they did what he did. Moving to some tropical place, where the weather is good most of the time (not so rainy or stormy etc).

How many of you wished that you had done something like that? How many of you have had dreams about doing it? Im sure that most of you older ppl have thought about it, but havent been able to because of family (kids and so on).

Has anyone done it here on GFY?

Hopefully doing it beginning of next year I just need to go back to the UK and clear up a few bits and bobs, and hopefully I'll be out of there by March. No plans as to where to move yet though...

I think about it an average of three times a day.

Perhaps in a few years when my life is mine I will do so.

A warm place is a very seductive notion.

I did it for a year. I decided not to sell everything as I knew I wanted to come back in time, and just headed out, unsure of how long I would stay. I went down to mexico and started living in a hut in the jungle. It was a small village that had electricity and phones, so I was able to work over dialup still. It was fantastic. I could work from my hammock if the mood struck.

I don't know why more people don't do it. They think there are things stopping them, but really there isn't.

I was thinking of doing this the first of next year with all of my adult sites and just starting fresh with the money. I've decided against it for now but I'm sure at some point I'll do it.

Doing porn is ok, but just like anything else it gets old and boring. I like to design and build things, so at some point I want to design a small 2 seater sports car and then maybe a small one seat home built airplane. In fact I'd love to get into reproduction WW2 aircraft.

Another thing I'd like to do is build online video games that are sold via subscriptions.

I had one of my good buddies do that about 5 years ago now, quit his job, sold/gave/threw away all of his belongings and moved to Australia. It took about 2 years to go through the process of becoming a citizen or to get landed immigrant status that would enable him to work full time and not have to leave the country every six months for 48 hours.

During that time he was on a student visa took some courses and worked part time. Once he got the OK that he was able to stay permanently he finished his schooling and bought a house. Now he is a personal trainer making really good money, he owns 2 houses and golfs or surfs daily. He really loves it there.

I had planned on going with him or shortly there after. Maybe not permanently but for at least a year. Unfortunately some things had come up that prevented me from going, although I would still really like to go there in the near future.

My experience is that for most people the move takes a fucking hooked ass turn and runined the life they could have had. So proceed with caution!

There is a reason why the majority of people who have these ideas don't follow thru...it's because they fear the worst and the worst is what a lot of people actually get from what I've seen.

Sorta did it 11 years ago.

Of course, at 22, I didn't have much to my name at the time - but I sold what I had, and drove across the country to start life anew.

Been a fun ride ever since.

I Ended up getting this crazy 12ft dish for internet only. Basically it even held up thru the rainy season. DrDish or something the dude is called its around $8500 for the install but gets up to 10mb per second *or course for that its $10k per month or something, i have 1mb down and 512k up.*

Not a bad service. But a 3 month wait because of backorders.
