Date: April 27th, 2025 11:23 AM Author: ,.,,,. If stock trader you could literally move to Russia or vietbam,etc. And why can't a lawyer work from home? As a doctor I could move abroad and I'd pay 30% commission to have someone on u.s. soil put their signature on my work. I am just afraid such arrangement is not safe and that 30% could turn into 60%.. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5717132&forum_id=2Elisa#48884997) |

Date: April 27th, 2025 11:32 AM Author: chilmata If you're looking to move to a place where you can still earn **$250K+** while enjoying a great quality of life, here are some of the best options, depending on your priorities:
### **1. Best for High Salaries & Career Growth (US-Based)** - **San Francisco, CA / Silicon Valley, CA** – Tech (FAANG, startups), finance, biotech. $250K is common for senior engineers, PMs, or VPs. - **New York City, NY** – Finance (hedge funds, IB), tech, law, and high-paying corporate roles. - **Seattle, WA** – Big Tech (Amazon, Microsoft, Google) pays well with no state income tax. - **Austin, TX** – Growing tech hub (Tesla, Apple, Oracle) with no state income tax. - **Boston, MA** – Biotech, finance, and academia (high salaries but high COL).
### **2. Best for Lower Taxes & High Earnings** - **Miami, FL** – No state income tax, growing finance/tech scene (hedge funds, crypto). - **Dallas/Houston, TX** – Energy, finance, tech with no state income tax. - **Nashville, TN** – Healthcare, finance, and no state income tax. - **Las Vegas, NV** – No state income tax, remote work-friendly.
### **3. Best for Remote Work (Earning $250K from Anywhere)** - **Portugal (Lisbon, Porto)** – Low cost of living, digital nomad visa, great lifestyle. - **Switzerland (Zurich, Geneva)** – Extremely high salaries in finance/tech (but high COL). - **Dubai, UAE** – 0% income tax, luxury lifestyle, booming finance/tech scene. - **Singapore** – High salaries in finance/tech, low taxes, great infrastructure. - **Bali, Indonesia** – Low cost of living, digital nomad-friendly (but time zones may be tricky).
### **4. Best for Work-Life Balance & High Earnings** - **Zurich, Switzerland** – Salaries often exceed $250K in finance/tech, excellent quality of life. - **Copenhagen, Denmark** – High salaries in tech, great work-life balance (but high taxes). - **Sydney/Melbourne, Australia** – Strong tech/finance sectors, great lifestyle. - **Toronto/Vancouver, Canada** – High-paying tech jobs, better COL than SF/NYC.
### **Key Considerations:** - **Taxes:** States like TX, FL, NV, and countries like UAE/Singapore offer big tax advantages. - **Industry:** Tech (FAANG, quant, AI), finance (hedge funds, IB), or healthcare (specialists) are best for $250K+. - **Remote Work:** If your job allows it, living in a tax-friendly or low-COL area maximizes take-home pay.
Would you like recommendations tailored to a specific industry (tech, finance, etc.) or lifestyle preference (urban, beach, mountains)? |
