- The USA has got its problems, but other countries also have their problems. Half the problems that plague the USA also plague the world. (Example: Our housing bubble is also, in part, a global housing bubble -- easy credit can cross national boundaries, and it has!) And many of the problems that are new to the USA are old news in the rest of the world. (Ask a Londoner about police-state surveillance. Ask (e.g.) a Brazilian from the slums of Rio about police violence. Ask a Chinese person about what it's like to live without a First Amendment... or ask an old Chinese person, or (god help us) a Cambodian, what "politics gone mad" really looks like.)
- You need to travel, no question. Just take some long trips. If you put all your stuff in storage you can spend your rent money in foreign countries for months at a time.
- The best place for you to start a company is almost certainly the USA. You know the language. You know the culture. You've got a lot of contacts. You have no legal issues.
- You're a web worker. Think about it: Just because your company is in the USA doesn't mean your office needs to be in the USA. You can have an office on a beach in Argentina for a month, then have an office in a cafe in Japan for a month, then have an office in a hostel in Australia for a month. Just learn the local words for "wifi" and remember: When a customs official asks if your trip is for pleasure you say yes.
