re: Would you take $150,000/yr to be a professional white person in China?

I could easily do it for 5 years

I wouldn't do it for double that honestly. Not the right culture for me, in addition to having to be away from friends and family. Would think hard about London and a few other places though.

no way I would do that for 150K...things in china are a hell of a lot more expensive than they are here....and the cities are exceedingly shitty places to be...

I lived in Taiwan for 2.5 years and Hong Kong for 6 months from '95-'97. I was working on a Masters. I was a lot younger and a good bit more care free back then, so I didn't mind it. There are things that we get used to over here that just aren't the same in the Far East--it's the little things. At this stage of my life, I am not willing to give up the niceties of this country to deal with another country.

It was my years over there that made me really appreciate the good ole USA.

Hell yeah I would do this shite. I'm young, white, 6'3, 280lbs, muscular build, long hair with beard. Sign my cracker arse up.

You'd have to hit me with a hammer to make me stop.. much like you sucking a dick for $1MM

I would move there tomorrow.

Hell no! Unless all of my expenses were paid and I walked with 150k tax free at the end of the year, then I would.

Hell to the yeah

Not for 150k
