@nprofile1q... i am attempting to start my own business for the express aim of being able to find and train someone to take over my position at my job, to help expand my boss's company, and give myself extra free time. but unfortunately it will probably be someone at least semi-local to my area for tax and regulatory purposes. the main reason why people move is for work, and if you can't find work, the best way is to be able to move somehow. the reason it's difficult is why it lets you find work, i know it's not feasible for everyone and shouldn't be that way, but sometimes fields are fallow and they just can't produce enough. my great great grandfather or whatever came over from ireland due to the potato famine I think, so you could say it's in my blood maybe
