I’m thinking I’m the definition of the “lazy economic refugee”. I live off an inheritance stipend, and it’s be poor in California or get by in Guatemala (where I usually stay). It doesn’t hurt, now that I’m 40, to have WGF/EGF working in a brother’s favor, as well.
I think this largely depends though on where in the world you are? I don’t know why else someone would be in Guatemala, other than to learn Spanish in the cheap schools (though I met one guy who seemed to have his stuff together who stayed there for a bit). But if you go to Thailand/Philippines I wonder which group you will meet? More affluent/cultured dudes might be elsewhere in the world. EE, I would think would invite both groups. Though the poorer the country (Moldova/Macedonia) the more LER’s I would say
