Comment on Ask HN: Living overseas with a profitable online business

Comments

I agree that other people here are making this more complicated than it has to be. Just go from one place to another on a tourist visa for the country you are visiting. Continue to pay takes in your home country and keep your work on the down low in the country you are visiting. You would probably be walking (if not crossing) some thin lines in regards to laws against working while on a tourist visa but I doubt you would have to worry about getting caught.

The only thing I have really found difficult is dealing with payment issues. Moving money in its many forms can be a pain. This is a big subject which is highly personalized for each person, so I won't get into it here. Just make sure you have a plan a, b and c for getting access to money and contacting your family when problems appear.
