You want to have actual qualifications for the job so you can compete.

I’m qualified to teach secondary and post secondary science and math. I’ve made accounts on some websites to try to find a school that will help me with a work visa, but it seems a lot of places are more willing to hire people who are already there.

I know it’s not “lawless.” I’m just looking to escape the impossible credit card that my ex saddled me with (pro tip! max out your husbands credit cards before kicking him out and he won’t be able to afford a lawyer to do anything about it) and the coming student loan debt.

I have like $200 in my bank account, the limited work I get is seasonal and we just hit the off season and I’ll probably be negative after rent next month. Plus 20k of credit card, 60k of student loan. My car is maybe worth 10k, but the title is two years out of date.

I’ve been desperately fucked for two and a half years, and I’m just trying to figure out where I could show up with maybe $1000, find someplace not in the US that will let me teach algebra or chemistry and make enough to not die.
