I've been living in Chiang Mai for nearly 6 years. I teach at an international school and have also been teaching Chinese students online for 4 years. I was doing VIPKID then switched to my own students when VIPKID stopped. I recently quit teaching online. It's simply not worth the time and effort for 500-800 baht an hour. I'd rather do something else or nothing.
@@jnsa9454 Depends on your qualifications, experience and the school you are interested in. Some schools are easy to get in, others like PREM are difficult.
What you are saying is SOC analyst is a good job.I worked on IBM computers for ten years and cybersecurity takes considerable study and skill acquisition.
Ive never been able to decide what career to do and doing that left brain right brain test really explained why, i scored smack bang in the middle, 50/50 on both sides. The search for balance continues
Always interesting to hear what other people are doing. I've being doing well for the last few years as an online music producer but I can't seem to scale it. I'd love to find something else - my current situation only takes up around 10 hours a week - but I just seem to make anything else stick. It's tough out there!
Thanks for another solid video Brett, you definitely picked on some good options there! I tend to agree that the drop shipping option has largely had its day. Getting in now is tough, the big boys with the big bucks for advertising seem to be dominating it now. You're right about not simply chasing the money, but on the other hand, you need to make enough money to live on. A few dollars a month from affiliate marketing, or even drop shipping may not be enough to pay the bills...
I'm in cybersecurity myself. Would love a video of you and that individual on like a podcast type of video explaining how he's able to work overseas. I'm cyber for a government agency right now so anything overseas is a no go. I would love the insight. I think it would be a great video idea for you to interview people in your class about their life, career, how they got to Thailand and how they are able to keep staying in Thailand. Cheers, man. Another banger video
High ticket closing is not easy.....at all. It's emotionally exhausting and most people will not buy and so it really really depends on the type of offer that you're selling because most people don't have five to 10 or $20,000 to drop on a product or service and to get them to spend that kind of money on a one call close or two call clothes is very very very difficult. So even though you may make a lot of money when you close when you actually close it's rare. This is coming from 3 years experience as a closer. It's also very stressful because you're completely relying on commissions so you have no stable income which is extremely disconcerting and stressful especially when you're living in another country So on this Brett I totally disagree with you and I think that most people are not cut out for that type of work
Absolutely depends on the offer. I’m an appointment setter for our company and our closers are doing really well. If you are looking to get into this industry be sure to try your best to find a solid offer with a good team. Easier said than done, but there are some amazing offers out there. But that’s not to say that there’s also tons of shitty ones
Since some years ago I wan to live as a digital nomad, I'm civil enginner (actually construction enginner) and I have been studying programming by my own, I feel like I know quite about programming but I don't feel ready to get a work yet. Furthermore, I'm not English speaker and it feel harder to become a global citizen without English. Sometimes I feel a little sad because achive this had being really hard for me, also sometimes I just want give up, and allow myself be carry into the rat race.
I have question for Brett and everybody. How about remote SQL programming? Is anybody doing that? I'm studying that now. There seems to be thousands of jobs in that!
Brett I tried coding Front End and Python and I am not the left-brained dude. Can a 59 year old learn the more creative marketing side and literally make a living as a digital nomad? No bull?! I am at a point where this is a direction I must go if I know for sure I can make it reasonably quickly (few months). Please advise. Thanks for your wonderful videos!
You can. But saying you have to get there in a couple of months is not a good start. Learning more about what people buy and why they buy will teach you more about how you might fit in. Point is, you start with the inputs… money is an output.
Great video. Left and right brain characterisation isn't used anymore in neuroscience (see Iain MGilchrist's The Divided Brain). People though have preferences in the kind of problems they like to solve i.e. people problems, money problems or technical problems.
GREAT VIDEO!! I want to move outa the country soon... my living situation is going to be weird and, all I want to do is travel.. I really, want to expatriate somewhere :) somewhere.. less money-obsessed. I wanna move somewhere I can get a visa... maybe teach English in person? I have TEFL (but only an associates..) BUT, having an online back-up job seems must... I don't party, I could live on so little.. just, want to get away from Americans :) no offense to any... Midlife crisis? if I could get paid to rant... they'd fire me for over-performing!
I think there's plenty of teachers they just usually don't think of themselves as nomads and are more in academia rather than business. So for them, there is no point in engaging in "digital nomad" community stuff cause they are teachers and are from a different crowd.
Thanks Brett- always good, informative videos. BTW, love your apartment balcony. Is this the same place you toured for us 6yrs ago” My £105 Chiang Mai Apartment “? Curious what you are paying now ? ❤🎉
SO I took a left/right brain test...and it split right down the middle LOL I am currently studying web design as well as coding on Python, so I guess that makes sense
I'm not big into phone sales myself but there is a great thread here: www.skool.com/nomad-school-7920/any-remote-closersinbound-sales-people-in-this-group
Thank you for this video. We had make it starting with Amazon, but we had not so much Follower at our Chanel. We had made this Chanel, to learn what is important for a lucky life and what can they, if they go travel. If you have tips for us, how we can find more user for our Chanel. We say thank you. We will go retired to Thailand soon. That why I followed your Chanel. Best wishes Siri and Uwr

The people I know who stick with it really enjoy it. If you don't enjoy it, it can be tough.
Jim, is it really competitive to get hired at int'l schools there?
@@jnsa9454 Depends on your qualifications, experience and the school you are interested in. Some schools are easy to get in, others like PREM are difficult.
Agree. If you are going to teach English, do it in a real school. Don't do it through VIPKID or some other stupid thing like that.
@@elzoog ahhh interesting distinction
Wow this was so interesting! I've always wondered what all digital nomads do. Thanks for doing the survey and making an informative video!
Glad it was helpful!

Brothers let me know how do I start appointment setting and closing work.. I am willing to work as a digital nomad, i have good experience in sales.
I was looking exactly for this topic, a bunch of thanks to you.
Wouldn’t be a Brett Dev video without the bird chorus ! ;)
#5 is digital content creation
*chatgpt has entered the chat*
chatgpt helps for all of these tho

You don't need to be a native English speaker to teach English. You just have to look like a native English speaker (preferably white).
Someone once told me that if I crack it once, I will never look back.. I hope for the same for you.
Great idea mate 🏆 stay champ
I have question for Brett and everybody. How about remote SQL programming? Is anybody doing that? I'm studying that now. There seems to be thousands of jobs in that!
Most places what you to work in the country.
Hey, you’re correct. Everything programming is the answer.
Glad to hear online fitness coaching is not saturated (yet) 😂 interesting video mate!
Awesome video Brett!

That doesn't sound like the same bird that I have heard on here before. It must be a buddy of the other one.
very interesting topic 🤘

I'm surprised day trading didn't make the list
i legit stopped this video to peek outside my window cos i thought there was a lost duckling... XD

Snobby ya mean, they think there a cut above the rest for some strange reason. 😒
If it's online they are
Thanks Brett- always good, informative videos. BTW, love your apartment balcony. Is this the same place you toured for us 6yrs ago” My £105 Chiang Mai Apartment “? Curious what you are paying now ? ❤🎉
£105 A Week ?
I love these birds. :)
SO I took a left/right brain test...and it split right down the middle LOL I am currently studying web design as well as coding on Python, so I guess that makes sense
Does anyone here trade stock otions like Covered Calls or LEAP diagonals for Income?
Hahaha just out of curiosity I went on to find out if I'm left or right brain after watching this 😂
doesn't marketing and sales encompass ecommerce as well?
If you ask the question "Can I learn how to code?" you probably can't.
Hey Brett ~ could you please recommend the best training program for high ticket closing?
I'm not big into phone sales myself but there is a great thread here: www.skool.com/nomad-school-7920/any-remote-closersinbound-sales-people-in-this-group
@@brett_dev Thanks a lot. ☺
is there anything non digital?
Forgot lottery winners, trustafarians and stonks (kidding).
Subscribed a Brit retired in Costa Rica.
I trade options.
