Which of the following countries would you NOT be willing to move to?

Trying to understand if we are not willing to move to certain areas or because we don’t have exposure/haven’t thought about moving there. Haven’t included US/UK/Canada/Australia/Dubai because assuming people would not be averse to moving there

Scandinavia (Sweden / Denmark etc)
Brazil/Chile (other in South America)
Indonesia / Malaysia
Western Europe ( Germany/Italy)
Eastern Europe / Russia
None (others pls comment)

Never going to live in any of countries where they halt all traffic multiple times a day for prayers.

Naturally occurring irregular traffic jams are one thing, govt policy enforcement mandated traffic jams are whole different level of crazy.

I don't want to take names, cautious and fearful of triggering those peaceful elements form that religion.

iykyk , N times a day everything has to be forcefully interrupted, albeit MBS has done some reforms to improve.

What if your earning in PPP terms beats what you could have earned in India?

Could be, but these countries have worse infra, services, law and order than India. Navigating these with language barrier will be a task.

Don't put Germany and Italy together. Italy doesn't have job opportunities crime is high in some cities and I don't think they have good universities too. Germany is way better

Chile is cool. Brazil is also cool if you ignore the fact that you can get mugged at every other Street corner

Is Brazil that bad? I have heard it’s improving and there are places close by to travel like Cuba / Bermuda / West Indies etc

Long term one should not move into developed countries, because you will be literally paying boomer pensions and taxes for their life. Who will pay for yours if those countries fall?

China not mentioned?
That country is a hit or miss for people who have worked there. You can't live there for a long time. Brutal Darwinian Culture.
But yeah, once you conquer that, your negotiating skills and ways to optimize/compete become insanely ballsy. (Not talking about Code MonKey jobs)
