I currently live in California, but it’s literally impossible to afford to buy a house.
Where are some good places to move to? I was thinking about Washington State, but I’m not sure I could handle the snow.

I would recommend somewhere in Europe. You will have paid vacation and heathcare insurance and (almost) free school and … :)
I’ve looked into relocating there, but citizenship seems difficult?
I also think I read somewhere that there are stricter labor laws so I wouldn’t be able to freelance as heavily (~30 hours a week) alongside having full-time employment?
The Working Time Directive means you can’t work more than 48 hours per week and it also prevents employers from making you work more than 48 hours per week (there are some exceptions eg workers on ships and trainee doctors) but in most EU countries you can opt out of it.
Why would you want to work 70 hours a week in Europe? Nobody really does that there
I’m trying to retire early, so I usually work my 40hr day job and then do another 20 or so contracting / consulting.
You don’t have to have that mindset there
Hmm, that’s a good point!
You don’t have to get citizenship.
WE AREN’T INVITED
Europeans are so fucking stupid telling Americans to move there. As if we could just up and run and get visas and jobs. Trust me, if it were easy, I would have done it.
Do you have any idea how difficult immigration is? Maybe you’ve been listening to the Islamaphobes too much… another great reason not to move to Europe btw, what if you’re the wrong color…
One citizenship please!
