Seems like it’s a well known fact that being poor or even middle class (if that will even exist anymore) in the US disposes one to a very low quality of life (e.g., living in areas with higher crime rates, bad healthcare, the most obvious being cost of living, …etc)

On the flip side, what are some reasons why the top 1-5% percentile would also want to leave the US? (e.g., taxes/financial benefits, no longer aligning with the culture? I would assume mainly the former)

If you are in the top 1-5%, is living in the US still the best place to live? (as many people would like to suggest)

    It is objectively extremely stale and boring in most of the US with suburbs, shopping malls, redundant box stores. In lots of the world is bustling markets and so much more life and culture.

      Depends what you’re into. I’m into outdoorsy stuff and find the US to be a top spot for that lifestyle. On the other hand, I’m also a foodie and am really enjoying Bangkok.
