I was just talking with my cousin in Macedonia. She told me that you could easily live there for $5000 a year.
Apartments in the city are under $100 a month. Average worker makes $5-$7 a day.
I'm trying to see if I can pull off a working from home(my laptop) gig and maybe hang out there for a year or more.
It's a beautiful country with beautiful women. Just really poor.

Parlay you could probably be the king of that place if the cost of living is that low!

How does Macedonia compare to Ukraine? Macedonia has a GDP per capita of about $5k as opposed to Ukraine's $3.6k so I would extrapolate that it is a little bit more expensive on average (although UA as a much bigger country would naturally have bigger differences based on area).
What about quality of life, infrastructure, internet connection quality, crime, corruption, police harassment, etc.? Human Development Index for these 2 countries is about the same and Ukraine is quite a shithole in my opinion, Macedonia looks much more attractive, could be a good base for location independent lifestyle...

Wow this Macedonia information is fascinating! Maybe Roosh needs to pay this little country a visit.
Please post more information on the girls, culture, whatever information you can provide.

Cool website Sourcecode. According to it the prices in Macedonia are very similar to Philippines:
Consumer Prices Including Rent in Philippines are 0.58% higher than in Macedonia
And we all know those islands are just about the gold standard for expats seeking low-cost of living.
Could we have found the perfect compromise to the great debate between the many who have
dueled over the merits and
demerits of SE Asia as a destination vs. E. Europe?
A Philippine cost of living blended with E. Euro women? Keep the absurdly low cost of everything, and the high quality Euro babes all at once? No need to pick one or the other? And I get to stay in close proximity to the rest of Europe the entire time?
This would be paradise for some here, so if anyone can get more recon on Macedonia I think it'd be welcomed.
Oh, and if you'd like to get more familiar with Macedonia,
there are loads of photos here.

Been a lot of shit happening in Macedonia recently, Macedonians killed by Albanians. Situation will only get worse.
You can live comfortably in Belgrade for that money, much cooler city, better nightlife, better girls.

There are a TON of places you can stay for that amount. Break it down for us a bit more. What type of environment do you want to live in? Preference for language spoken? Island or no island? Capital city? Smaller city? Beach city? Asian girls? Black girls? Latin girls? White girls?
