If you have the luxury of being able to live anywhere (e.g. 100% remote work, or no need for work), there are some exceptionally affordable places to rent housing until the market cools and it's a better time to buy. I don't think it makes sense to buy high unless you have very limited options.
The folks that got their life situation updated due to Covid19 should think and let it simmer for a while.
I have coworker that decided to move far, outside major tech city and now with RTO and recession, he's seeing less remote opportunity with the same high level of income as the major tech city.
There is... _so much Texas_ that isn't Austin or Houston or DFW or San Antonio.
A lot of it's really great, too. I miss Texas.
Where?
There's this thing, you may have heard of it, it indexes the World Wide Web and allows you to search that index free of charge. They call them search engines, a popular one is Google at https://google.com, but I presently prefer https://duckduckgo.com.
A cursory search using obvious keywords reveals that Cambodia is one such place, where one can apparently live in downtown Phnom Penh for less than $500/mo.
Don't post this type of stuff here.
