Hi everyone
I would like to introduce myself, I am a 37 year old first generation American of African descent. I have an MBA and did the peace corps after college and worked in various fields before starting the entrepreneurship journey in 2009. I have been part of several failed business ventures, experienced more downs than up but I am still here. I was introduced to Steemit by Jeff Berwick of the Dollar Vigilante, a channel I follow a lot. I have dreamt so long about achieving my dreams of living without a boss and doing things on my own pace for a long time. It has been great to see someone that has done it.
As many of you know its harder to turn 0 into something big than it is to turn 1 million to 2 million...I stay trying. I like many of you have been looking at different business types, from Drop shipping to Amazon FBA,creating brands, import & export, day trading....anything that can make a dollar. At times it gets frustrating as it seems like I keep losing. My current business I am selling a consumer electronics product over the INTERNET has been going on for a few months with very few sales. I remain confident that I can turn it around and hopefully turn it into something good.
My dream right now is to move to Buenos Aires. I am fascinated by Argentina and the lifestyle. The cost of living is low and you can live like a boss for $3000/month. Location arbitrage is a new concept to me. I am convinced now that there is a better way of life than what I have here in the states. Apparently in Argentina marijuana is smoked publicly in the streets and the women are beautiful. It sounds like my type of place.
I would like to get feedback from the steemit community on their thoughts on Location independent lifestyle, their dreams and where they feel the ideal location is for them. Please let me know.
Keep dreaming, Keep hustling, never stop
