"Thanks to the Remote Coding Bootcamp, I went from a retail job to a remote software role earning three times as much. Now, I’m living in Chiang Mai, saving over 60% of my income each month, living like royalty, and exploring Southeast Asia on the weekends. I never thought financial freedom could feel so exciting!"

"Working remotely from Medellín has changed my life. The cost of living is so low that I can save a large portion of my income while still enjoying a high quality of life. The Bootcamp and geoarbitrage service helped me make this possible, and I'm just upset that I spent 18 years living paycheck-to-paycheck before I did this!"

THE BARISTA FIRE LIFESTYLE
Geoarbitrage is when you earn a high salary in one place but live in a cheaper location, so your money goes further. By moving to a place with lower living costs, you can save more and enjoy a better lifestyle without earning more.
Imagine you’re making $80,000 a year working remotely from New York City, but costs are high leaving you with little to no savings. If you move to Lisbon, Portugal, where living is half the cost, you can keep the same salary and save significantly more money.
What is the “Barista FIRE lifestyle”?
The "Barista FIRE Lifestyle" lets you achieve financial independence without fully retiring. Interest and dividends from your geoarbitrage savings cover more and more of your living costs. Eventually, you're able to work part-time (like a barista) to cover any extra expenses, giving you freedom without a full-time job.
By using geoarbitrage, you live in a low-cost country. Your extra savings build more investments, which eventually provide enough income to cover most of your expenses, meaning that a part-time job would cover the rest. You enjoy freedom and flexibility, without the pressure of a full-time career. Living quasi-retired while traveling the world.
