Is geomaxxing long-term irreversible?

[explorer7878]

Let's say you graduate from university, then immediately after you choose to geomaxx without any work experience. Maybe living off parents, inheritance or making some money online (but not a real remote job).
If you decide to come back to the west after 2 years and want to get a normal corporate job you are practically cooked, right? Because there is a 2 year gap in your CV ?

I don't think 2 years is that big of a deal

The main thing I would be worried is freelance at shit salary for 10 years, and then come back to the west. That's when you're fucked.

Income is one thing to worry about, but another is that many geomaxxers end up in a purgatory state unable to decide where to live long term, their mind half in Asia (or wherever) and half in the west. You have the women of passport bro countries against the quality of life and your friends and family in the west competing in your mind and you end up in a purgatory state travelling in between them never being able to make a proper decision of where to settle down

Hoeflation is making this harder as well

i have no emotional attachment to the west, I feel better living in a one room apartment in Manila than in a big house in the west at least on my geomaxxing trips because there is this sense of freedom in Asia and nobody knows you. Hoeflation is also not as bad as people are making it, a smart white normie will be fine until the agepill hits but I do not want to get older than 35 anyway

It is completely reversable if you continue to work on your skills and continue to hustle on money. I'm really shocked by people who think they are just gonna live on savings until their savings run out chasing and banging around and then come back home empty handed other than just cool memories. You should be using the new found alotted time to up your skills, grind money, and invest in things like crypto so that you are not only keeping up, but coming ahead.

what is the purpose of geomaxxing if you hustle all day and burn yourself out? you go to the geomax location to HAVE FUN AND FUCK and not hustle all day

furthermore, you do not need lots of savings for retirement if you not want to get old. 400,000 euro, which is a little house in the west, should be enough for geomaxxing for ten years. then your age will start becoming a failo for women in their late teens and 20s so you can die in peace

Learn the language and continue to invest in skills/education/career.
Pick a decent enough country and stay long term (property, permanent residency, etc.)

Its not rocket science.

Hustling all day (Or hustle culture as popularized by Gary V) is a marketing gimmick and doesn't work for most people. It's more like you put in 3 hours of focused energy into your skills and craft every day. Over time, those skills is gonna compound. This leaves plenty of room for you to do other shit like dating.

I just think that with having a very tight budget like yours in a first world Asian country, you are just one unforeseen emergency away from your plans being ruined. There are just too many stories out there of guys going broke due to unforeseen expenses. Better to have at least some income coming in than living completely on savings.

To be fair many are just dating tinder girls

2 years is just a learning experience. I moved to another country at 22. Made big mistakes both financial. Few years later you can all rebuild it back

2 years isn't even bad. Besides you can just make up experience and pay me to be your reference. Could even make an LLC/S-corp if you have to.

I have seen some VERY SERIOUS fuck ups in Japan and all of them managed to get back on their feet in some way. A little bit of good-lifer in ya helps (i.e., can live with parents and they'll bum you some money). It's difficult for those without any support network. Worst case you're set back a couple years in your financial goals.

However, this doesn't need to be you. Focus on learning the language, exploring work options related to (not necessarily in) your target country, learning skills for those positions, and befriending people who you want to be like (either for networking purposes, or just to be in the head space). As @EEmaxxer said this is NOT "hustle grindset" mentality (you will be miserable and burn out), rather it just means taking some time every day to dedicate to improving skills related to your life goals.

Depends on you. I left the US when I was 23 then returned when I was 33. For the past four years I've been able to support my wife and son along with myself. My wife is a full time stay at home mother and hasn't worked in six years. Until recently I've supported us by working just three 12 hour shifts per week. So for three and a half years I was able to support my family of three while having four consecutive days off a week. I have no secondary education and got fired from the last job I had in the US in 2011.

I could never do a corporate job. Would rather spend my youth living abroad and learning while having fun then use what I've learned when I'm older to make it so I never have to fill a cog in a corporate job.

I felt the same, totally mentally fucked up from working in an office environment. But, then I started working in Japan and realized it wasn't the corporate job that I hated, it was living in the U.S. while working a corporate job that I hated. So it's important to identify exactly where the frustration is stemming from.
