Will You Be Happy Living in Nicaragua?

[@solojourneyer]

Nicaragua is a beautiful country full of vibrant culture, stunning scenery, and friendly people. The climate is warm and sunny year-round, making it ideal for those who love the outdoors. Nicaragua's tropical climate and diverse terrain make it a paradise for adventurers, whether you enjoy water sports, hiking, bird watching, or exploring the rain forest. The cost of living is much lower than in most western countries, allowing for a comfortable lifestyle while still being able to save money. Furthermore, Nicaragua offers great cultural experiences such as learning the traditional cuisines, dance styles, and music. In addition, Nicaragua is a perfect place for nature lovers as it hosts an array of national parks and wildlife reserves. All these factors combined make Nicaragua a great place to live and be happy.

Wow, very well put. Great comment!

[@kathieleece]

ABSOLUTELY 🥰

[@claudejoly4739]

I am just afraid. Afraid of change. Afraid to be happy

@@claudejoly4739 Hey Claude! I'm sorry to hear that. Can you go on about what went wrong? This a great place to network and make some friends who offer advice or help if needed.

Hey: I can feel your passion for living your life on your own terms.

[@JackPitmanNica]

Your recognition of that must mean you are that way as well

[@ScottAlanMillerVlog]

Similarly, I've worked for a company in the US for 25 years. And that company has been hiring Nicaraguans (online!!!!) for a very long time, long before I moved here permanently. So I can say with utmost certainty as well that the system works because the staff in Nicaragua that work for the company in the US have been getting paid for most of a decade and live their lives from those jobs. So I'm used to the process from the other side, too!

[@arosalesmusic]

Capital One has had a call center here since 2008 and they have consistenly have scored this call center as the best world wide. I worked there for 5 years.

[@jeaninevanlente3520]

Very happy that you found your happiness. It is absolutely unbelievable how bad life in North America is getting. In Canada it is becoming quite normal to get a 2nd job or work huge amounts of overtime to handle the increased expenses. People value that amazing house and the fancy car more than actually living their life. It is unbelievable 😢

[@Pronoid]

Very informative Jack, thanks man. - I'm looking to travel to Nicaragua for the first time this year, is there a way I can contact you directly please?

[@JackPitmanNica]

You can message me on Whatsapp @ [phone]

[@arosalesmusic]

Hi Jack. You should also talk about health care and insurance as compared to the States, because I know that that holds back a lot of people.

[@JackPitmanNica]

Yeah, thats a great idea! Many foreigners have this impression that if they go to get healthcare in Nicaragua, its gonna be like some dirt floor and a bed of straw, even if they pay for private healthcare 🤣 At least that's how its talked about in the USA! Meanwhile here you can find a great doctor and get real health advice for like... $20-$40 uninsured... provided you network and find a genuine doctor!

[@gustavoalvarez3705]

That is true

[@ScottAlanMillerVlog]

Because people are afraid of getting good healthcare and don't want to get healthy in Nicaragua? lol ;)

[@RealNewsChannel]

Good video. You should produce a video on what kind of on-line jobs you recommend and how to apply. On-line work isn't for everybody, and perhaps you should talk about that, too. Another topic is how best to obtain and renew a visa. In some countries it's a real hassle to actually live long-term. Thanks for the info on Nicaragua.

[@JackPitmanNica]

Thanks, Ill add those to the list!

Hey Walter, I just left Costa Rica after two attempts at maybe living there....Its extremely Americanized and more Expensive then the US....I have been to 38 countries....The further you go away from the US the less Americanized it becomes in my opinion....Leaving Europe out of this topic......

I feel much better now, thank you so much! We´re leaving Hamburg. Do you sometimes talk to europeans?

[@JackPitmanNica]

Yeah, I talk about Americans a lot but to be honest not very many Americans actually come to Nicaragua. For whatever reason Europeans seem to be much more open minded about Nicaragua and many foreigners in Nicaragua are europeans. Most of the Americans in Nicaragua are Nicaraguans who have American citizenship; etc. Americans without Nicaraguan blood are much less likely to visit

[@JackPitmanNica]

@@romi2276 Nicaraguans have very little animosity against Russians, honestly Nicaraguans have very little animosity against any country; especially compared to the USA. Russia actually had a relationship with Nicaragua and donated a bunch of busses and stuff; so you see some Russian influence here but its a bit unusual to see Russians themseles

Good content...we r in agreement 1000% on your video discussion points. I would be interested in a consult at one point as really looking to make Nica work for my family. I need to check if you did a video about home schooling as this is something i would like to do for my daughter who is 2 currently.

[@ritasjourney]

Darn, I missed your live!

[@JackPitmanNica]

Dont worry it was a preimeire not a live stream, you did not miss anything jaja

[@Bonstergirl]

Thanks for a great video Jack! I think the reason so many people in the U.S. want to buy a house in Nicaragua right away is that we've seen the rent prices in the U.S. sky rocket. If I didn't own my own home, I wouldn't be able to afford rent. I'd never be able to retire. So people are worried that will happen in Nicaragua.

[@Restricted75921]

Good video . I'm on par with you. Went to look look at apartments in Florida and they wanted $600 a month association fees they've actually have gone up . I chatted to a Nicaraguan doctor he told me for $600 u can get a house with that income . Thank for sharing. I'm definitely going to have to do a consultation with u. ✌️

[@NoLimitsFunGarage]

Hey, salutes Jack. All you said is true. I'm Nicaraguan, I'm that guy you gifted like 600k on OSRS a few years ago, it's nice to see you are still living in Nic. Can you make videos on how Nicaraguans can make $5+/hr working online, I've worked in the local call centers and was making $550-600 a month, I know a lot of people are working from home, but I would to hear your take on making more money in Managua(y), also, I left the call center industry to pursue a career as an automotive technician, but I'm not making enough money and will be looking for an online job soon. great video as always.

[@JackPitmanNica]

Good to hear from you again! At some point I'm gonna make some more videos about earning moeny online from the Nicaraguan perspective, not sure when that will happen though. For now, just send me an email at [e-mail]; then I will write out everything I can that is beneficial for you. Best of luck!

I'm looking for an online/remote job Just so I can live in Nicaragua 🎉🙏🎉 any tips?? My experience is mostly admin & accounting

[@JackPitmanNica]

The best job is a job where you work for a small team based out of california or another high cost of living area. You want a boss who you can talk to directly. Don't waste your time with one of those jobs that pays minimum wage and you never get to interact with the boss. Its not ideal. You want a situation where you can become so valuable for such a low rate that they are incentivized to keep you. So, you want to be working for a small company or small team based in california. Youd be suprised how many "Start ups" people there have on the side of their full time jobs... Ideally the job earns $1000 a month but $700 a month is doable as a foreigner if you don't have any debt you need to pay

[@selena2250]

[@jaymesturdivan3635]

What if your income is mostly online? I'm an artist. I've set up an online shop to sell my work. But then I ship my art to customers.

[@JackPitmanNica]

It depends where you live in Nicaragua. If you live in a rural area then the shipping outside of the country is a pain (as far as I know) But if you live in Managua or another major city; then you can use DHL and UPS and FedEx and whatnot to ship packages to other countries.

[@kevinhernandez4471]

Great video Jack! What's do you have what’s up?

[@TheSistaWarrior]

I am visiting. What zones in the capital do you recommend. I want to rent a small house with garden. Right now I am in an apt. It's nice but has no garden. I don't want to live like my former Canadian roommate who is also a digital nomad. She moved into a 750 a month townhouse in a posh gated community. I don't want to pay that much.

[@JackPitmanNica]

$750 is incredibly expensive rent by Nicaraguan standards. I pay $320 for a house and locals think that's a lot of money for rent! You can easily find a house to rent for $200 - $400 per month.

[@discokillers8674]

I heard that it was illegal to take a job from a Nicaraguan?. I work as an Emergency Nurse and have a lot of clinical experience. I was curious to know if there were exceptions related to jobs in the medical field?

[@JackPitmanNica]

Basically, you can't just go to a place and get a job while you are here. But... if you apply and register and whatnot and wait to get approved all that, then there are lots of skills that they would make exceptions for , you just have to start the process BEFORE you try to get the job, make sense? I don't know much more about the specifics, you would have to talk to somebody with experience or an abogado

[@ScottAlanMillerVlog]

In many cases, Nicaraguans can't work online because there is a lack of jobs that are offered for them. Americans have many more potential online job options as they can take full blown US jobs that are only offered to Americans. Nicaraguans CAN work online, but they do have fewer job options than we do. I know Nicaraguans who have tried to work online and the services block payments to Nicaragua. There are definitely services (KZbin) that DO pay into Nicaragua, but there are others that do not. So options exist, but Americans retain working advantages that are quite unfair.

[@JackPitmanNica]

Absolutely ! The information Nicaraguans need to utilize the internet is not easily or readily available to them. It is true that traditional work is often unavailable for Nicaraguans online; but that doesn't really matter. Why? Because Nicaraguans do not need to find the "good jobs" from the west. Let me explain. In Silicon Valley and other similar locations throughout the world; there are hundreds of thousands of well paid Americans. Of these hundreds of thousands of well paid tech-workers; over 20% of them are involved in side gigs and startups in adition to their main job. There are many of these individuals who seek to employ others to create content, work with AI, and various other online-labor that they need done. In the world of tech startups and side-hustles; having a video editor, an AI script writer, a language teacher, etc whom can work for $1,000 a month; this is a huge blessing to the startup because it is not normally possible for them. There exists a huge opportunity for Nicaraguan people to undercut the high-cost of American tech labor. This is an innevitibility; due to the low relative cost of Nicaragua in general. The only thing thats missing at the moment is the skills. Most Nicaraguans do not think they have access to skill-building materials. But that isn't true. In reality, any Nicaraguan with access to KZbin can empower themselves to learn and earn $5-$10 an hour working online. As time progresses, more and more Nicarguans will catch on to this. In the west, we may scoff at these numbers, but $5 an hour is more than most college-educated Nicaraguans earn. $10 an hour? That is absolutely fantastic. Nicaraguans can work online working part time for other economies and with patience and diligence they can double, triple, or quadruple their incomes multiple times. I've met some Nicaraguans and told them it is possible to find basic online work for $5 an hour... and they looked me in the eye and said "No, that is impossible, $5 an hour is too much". But I've met other Nicarguans... who have listened to what I've said... levereage their skils... and then doubled their income on multiple occasions. Once you experience what it is like to provide value to a small team or small business from Nicaragua; you can't go back. The life is too sweet. You'd be suprised how much of life is mental.... whether you are Nicaraguan or foreign... the obstacles we talk about become real... but we must have a blind faith in what we do... we must believe that there is alwas an answer... otherwise we will never progress
