When making a decision to move to a country like Vietnam it is not always about income and growth possibilities. It is at least as much a matter of lifestyle and culture and that is all subjective. I am an American born and raised in NYC. I met a Vietnamese refugee there in 1976 and where we were married in 1977. I became quickly fascinated with things Vietnamese. We came first to Vietnam in 1988. We moved to Saigon full time in 1995 where we remain. Now retired and 70 years old I can say that I am never bored.

I found this interview quite fascinating. Her parents had moved to Denmark; she was born in Denmark. Her husband is a Dane; she's 29 years old, had 3 kids, and got an MBA degree. Remember getting an MBA requires lots of time, money and effort. She is young, well educated and confident. She has a Vietnamese name, and she can speak and understand Vietnamese. It's quite fascinating isn't?

My relative moved back to Vietnam, but not 100%. He still has homes in the US. He went back and forth when necessary. He already retired but with a comfortable nest egg and is financially comfortable. And that is his only formula: Have enough income to retire in Vietnam without worry, but don't risk everything there. Mai is a courageous and energetic young mother of three, and wish her the best. But she is not any different from many Westerners and Americans who take "the road less traveled". It can lead to something good, or even if it is a dead-end, it is not the end of the world as she can still go back to Denmark again. But nothing ventured, nothing gained. The father of her 3 kids must take a man's ultimate responsibility in life: to ensure the children's success and happiness. So, she should not be alone on that. Remember her parents' generation: they escaped Vietnam in rickety boats with children without much food and water, bobbling in pitch black sea not knowing where it might end up. Yet, many made it and made it well. Whatever she is on right now, is still far far better than those rickety boats, and she certainly has the same courage as the previous generation. I wish her family the best.

Very brave person, I admire her determination, and wish to raise her kids in Vietnam culture. Wish her every success - I'm confident she will do great. Seems like she might be working under a gig contract basis working remotely for a US company - a great step - but reckon (and hope I am wrong) she does not get many benefits (contribution to pension, healthcare, paid vacation). Hopefully she can develop relationships where a Vietnamese company will see the value in her, hire her locally in Vietnam with a good work condition, or hire her to work in Denmark / Europe for its international expansion. Or find a US company wishing to move their operations from China to Vietnam - as an example, suggest contacting Apple HQ in the US to apply for position in the US with the ultimate goal to be based in Vietnam or to work straightaway in Vietnam. Good luck, hoping for the best for you.

It is WAY MORE EXPENSIVE to live in Denmark, that is if you're Danish with a decent job, but as this lady figured out, you can get massive support from the Danish govt which is why migrants have been streaming across the Danish borders for years; it's probably one of the biggest ($$$) welfare states in the world and that of course make the taxes there sky-high.

Well, they make this big step, but realise later that this feels different than a holiday. Than when they apply for work for a local VN company, they discover that the salary is different than in EU.. duh... seems they have too Western expectations and not prepared well before they take the step. I am born in Indonesia, raise and worked in EU and back to live in Indonesia again with my wife and kids, so I know we were taking about. Unfortunately I am not a native bahasa Indonesia speaker... I have not that luck but ya, adapt the new life environment and feels home finally.

I don't understand why moving to Vietnam is a better choice. Even if things are cheaper in Vietnam, you're not making the amount of money as you would in Vietnam. Unless I am wrong !!!! In the US, if you're not making enough, then you would apply and get assistance from the county/state/federal, but Vietnam doesn't have that and even if they do, don't you have to be a citizen in Vietnam? What are you going to do if your young kids get really sick?

What an ignorant comment. She had 3 kids while studying. Which is a normal thing to do in Denmark since you get paid maternity leave. The government encourage you to do so and it’s easier to get a job afterwards, since the workplace won’t have to worry about the woman leaving for maternity leave once she’s hired.

The median salary of someone with a MBA in the U.S is $126k. It's the few that make $250k+/year. Unless you see their paychecks and not what's parking in their driveways, there is no way you can know what people make. Many people look rich or present a rich lifestyle but are living paycheck to paycheck. I think that if she could find a job that pays her $250k/year, she wouldn't be moving to Vietnam.
