Passport Bro Explains Why You Should LEAVE AMERICA!

[@WilfridoTorres-h2t]

I'm a Colombian that has lived in the USA for 50 years. Before, it never even entered my mind to live in Colombia, I even rejected being Colombian. How wrong I was, it's just a matter of time before moving to Colombia, maybe even Spain. The only thing that is giving me 2nd. thoughts now is the current goverment. But yes, Colombia is a beautilful country, I'm just sorry that I did not see that in my earlier years. Best wishes.

Amen 🙏 bro. I been in California 35 years & I got a 5 years plan for retirement at 50 years old & retire in beautiful Colombia 🇨🇴.

[@hoghunter8229]

Originally / rececently, "passport bros" described Western men seeking overseas women. The description in this post seems to expand that to just seeking a life overseas. I am in Medellin as I write this, visiting my Colombian wife's family. I met my wife in Medellin in 2008 and we married in 2010 and live in North Carolina now, so I guess I was a "passport bro" before it was a term. A few observations: 1) while the USD$ IS stronger against many currencies, it's been dropping steadily for the last few months (down 8% against the Colombian peso in just one month), so be careful about making future plans based on the current dollar:peso exchange rate. With the decline of the US stature in the world (thanks to " Brandon") it's predicted to continue to decline as some countries buy in Chinese Yuan now instead of US dollars. 2) Under the current Colombian (socialist) President, there is a lot of uncertainty about the economic stability for the middle and upper class (which many Passport Bros would become if they live here and earn in USD). Inflation is very bad here as in the US, but it is still is more affordable for US citizens than native Colombians. If you are considering moving here (I am currently considering retiring here - I am 66 but my (still hot) Colombian wife is only 47), there are a ton of things to factor in. This Channel is doing a great job providing info to potential passport bros, but here is a valuable website to dig further into the details you need to know. www.medellinadvisors.com/

[@MiguelSanchez-uu9lb]

Feliz keep in mind that not everyone can "leave now" as they are involved in careers that don't cater to full time remote work. And not everyone is cut out to be a KZbin content creator. And if working a Colombian job for Colombian money, odds are good you wouldn't be online telling everyone to "leave now." You feel this way because you are collecting and/or earning US dollars which go further in Latin America. This isn't rocket science and requires no epiphanies. And the country you are down on is the same that has and likely still is giving you the opportunity to acquire a level of resources that put you among the top earners in Colombia. 😃😃

[@RubbingPotatoes]

Most people can't leave now. There are few employers that will allow an employee to work fully remote, and even fewer that allow remote work from abroad.

[@greg617ma]

Yes, I would be cautious if I was in my 20’s, 30’s or even 40’s without a financial backup plan like an annuity, pension, significant savings or some sort of stable income that you can truely rely on long term. Living abroad is a serious commitment and I’m not against it. I have a visa for Colombia but I am going to make sure financially everything is all set first. I will be living in Colombia in the near future but if things go to hell like they did in Venezuela you need a back up plan. I don’t think this will happen in Colombia and pray it never does. My advice would be to prepare wisely.

[@williesteele4503]

Even though the title of his video seems as though it applies to everyone, of course it does not. Felix might not even realize it himself, but his target group is Men who are single, Divorced or Retired and already have money or a stable income of some sort. These men are tired of the direction their country is going, the Inflation and prices of everything going up and up, and tired of the silly dating games in USA, and are brave enough to move to another country with their American dollars and make a new life. This is nothing new, American Military service men have been doing this for years! Marrying Foreign women and going to live in another country with their retirement dollars and enjoy their life ,which is what most people want, is to be happy with their life.

[@andrejamesreacts]

There’s so much remote work these days, even a job paying 50k will stretch far in LatinAm. Get a coding certification and do data science anyone can do that

[@RubbingPotatoes]

@@andrejamesreacts right. Have you even checked the job post or talked to recruiters? Data science positions usually are from larger companies. They will not allow candidate to work from abroad and certainly not at entry level. Same for coding. Entry level positions are highly competitive. I usually see 100+ applicants. There are exceptions and lucky few but not something anyone can do.

[@jeffschueler1182]

Felix - we are sooo on the same page. I would enjoy visiting with you sometime. I enjoy all of your videos, but this one mirrors my opinions identically. Medellín is such a breath of fresh air compared to anywhere (with the exception of maybe Hawaii) in the United States. As us Americans say; fuck that shit.

[@hoghunter8229]

Hawaii is probably as liberal as it gets in the US with the exception of California. Fortunately, Colombia historically was more conservative, but things are changing under the current (and first) socialist President. Still, I agree with Felix on the content of most of his videos and would definitely recommend a visit to Colombia to check things out. It is nearly impossible to get a decent job working for a company in Colombia, but for those foreigners who can earn in their native currency as a nomad, it can be a very rewarding move.

[@therehastobesomethingmoore]

I think it was about moving abroad for a traditional woman. Digital nomad is not really the same thing, just someone that travels the world while working online…..at least that is my understanding. I believe the people that have been upset are the liberal woke women that can’t understand why men are running away from them as fast as possible. Married my Nicaraguan wife decades ago and four girls and 10 grandkids later we are both happy and traveling the world in search of our favorite retirement city. Maybe Manizales ? Love your videos !

Felix thanks for another awesome video! I hadn’t realized I wasn’t subscribed so I had to right that wrong! I was curious are you open to expats reaching out for recommendations or advice on where are the must see spots that are out of the usual tourist loop? I plan on coming down in a few months to visit for a month or 2 and just exploring another culture and seeing if I get that sense of home like I do from these types of videos seeing the landscape idk I just connect with it, but anyways I’ve reached out and connected with ak Joel and andres on earth but I’ve been waiting to hear back from life with David and I believe I even messaged geno under one of his videos but idk I suppose I’m just trying to build a little expat community I’ve chatted with and can reach out to if I need any help or anything like that when I come over, I’m a younger guy 25 I’m not tall or blond or light eyes and I have a decent bit of me tattooed even my neck and above one of my eyebrows and I just wanted to make sure that wouldn’t be an issue where the people judge me before they meet me like often in the US. Regardless of if I hear back from you I love the content keep it coming! And thank you for giving me an insight each video! Also I don’t use social media Facebook or instagram, I have a Facebook I just don’t like using it but I was also curious do I have to bring my card? Could I get through my daily life with just cash?

I found and married a HOT, but traditional wife in Medellin in 2008/married 2010 and life in the US. I think I was incredibly lucky in finding my wife, who, fortunately, has not become "westernized" after 13 years in the US. I would say that @stoic is partly correct, because there ARE fewer and fewer "traditional" women in Colombia and not surprisingly, the younger the woman, the less likely they will have the same "traditional values" as women over 40. Social Media has "polluted" those values as it has in the US. I believe that the opportunities for finding the type of women that passport bros seek is still 10x higher than in the US, but you still have to vet the women carefully. GETTING TO KNOW her family will help a lot to determine who she really is.
