Get a job.
Like you said you could pull that off in 5 minutes, but I can't imagine being able to do that myself. Maybe I'm just overly cautious.
El Mech I guess can fix cars which I bet really would mean work in 5 minutes. Also, look, he has over 10,000 posts which means he is a diligent character.
+1 belated for him for his fierce independent thinking and crushingly good humor.

I like this thought experiment.
I already have both EU and American passports ( took 7 years on and off work) so I'm sort of immune from exile in the normal sense. I also have a small independent income (took 25 years on and off making believe I was working), but for thought experiment's sake we should assume country of origin cuts that off.

I would probably go to China even though I don't like might-is-right Confucian culture much. It is just where a smart ass like myself has the most value right now where I would have access to the most bangable chicks.
