If I can't become a digital nomad in the next 6 years I'm going to jump into the polar bear exhibit at the zoo.
Software/web development seems to be the gold standard job for be becoming a digital nomad but it also seems to be extremely competitive to get into and you have to be cut out for it. I'm going to attempt to learn it but I'm looking for other career paths to fall back on if I suck at development.
Please list remote jobs that are suited for digital nomading (i.e. you can easily do them in any country without getting in trouble) that a person of average intelligence in their late twenties could feasibly get into within 2-6 years of hard studying/work.
Is TESL an option for you?
>TESL
I don't have a degree
I can tell you not to take any job that's in consulting, finance, or government, because you are absolutely fricked if they find out potential client/government data is coming from an IP/location it's not supposed to be coming from.
By the time you become decent at writing code and thinking like a software engineer, most jobs at your level will have already been replaced by GPT models.
That's what I figured, but there still needs to be some level of entry level programming work, right? But there will be less openings and it will be more demanding work?
Are there any tech fields that can be done remotely that WON'T be replaceable or severely changed by AI?
Engineering. The liability issues surrounding the profession make it impractical for an AI to do design.
Tell us more moronic shit, anon who doesn't actually code or work with LLMs
He's a blackpill doomer with no skills himself. At worst you'll be doing prompt programming and cleaning data for fine tuning foundation models, which are not going to be only LLMs but a vast ecosystem of shit.
Anyway, learn to code. Specifically, do two things as soon as possible. Make github PRs to repos where someone will review your code, and make your own side projects. The first can be done fairly quickly after you learn to read code. Ask someone in the discord dedicated to the project where you can help, at worst you can add test coverage.
do you have any marketable skills?
I'm in skilled trades. I'm willing to try learning literally anything if it gets me out of this hell and into a LCOL foreign country.
I'm in the same position as you brother
welder here
Accounting would be a good remote job, they are not producing enough accounting graduates anymore and Indian/Filipino off shore accounts are garbage.
How quickly can you get a remote accounting job? Do you recommend a bachelor's degree?
How?
>How
Learn Excel, SQL, and Python for analysis. Then learn PowerBi and Tableau for visualization. Build a portfolio. Then you can get some shitty underpaid job. Then you can freelance or go full remote. Should be able to pull an easy $60k to $90k.
You can easily become a data analyst in under a year.
go to college
You can get into IT in 6 months with heavy study and some certs. It will pay shit but it gets your foot in the door. With 3 years XP you can go full remote easy.
What subfields of IT are the easiest to go remote with? (And easiest in terms of difficulty)
>With 3 years XP
Nobody uses Windows XP anymore
