Interestingly - North Korea exists, but also many of the most successful countries only take a minute number of immigrants, and only very highly skilled or very rich ones. E.g luxembourg, switzerland, monaco(?) and Singapore.
This is because they don’t tend to have “gaps to fill” in the economy/workforce and are very small.
I think it’s accurate to say that those countries are where people want to move to the most, though, so it is a common desire. The fact that yiu woukd be one of the onky immigrants there is part of the appeal
Antarctica is pretty exclusive.
I was briefly tempted by a winterover job there. It’d be a pay cut, plus a year and a half of continuous winter, and I’m not totally convinced that the U.S. would still exist by the time they’re supposed to pick us up.
The rape sexual assault vibe is a bit of a problem though.
Huh?
This hurt my brain
It’ll hurt more when you understand some people actually, without a hint of irony, believe that.
“Im not an immigrant, I’m an expat”
Yo for real though. Even though I was born with UK citizenship, I didn’t grow up here and I don’t really fit in. It was hard at first, but life immediately made more sense when I mentally dropped the expat thing and started fully thinking of myself as an immigrant. I never did fit in in America anyway, so I have the mental framework in place already.
