My wife and I also have a 3 month old daughter. I work half time and live in luxury. I moved to Mexico a few years ago and work remotely. Earn SF hourly rate, spend $280/month on rent!

I think I get more done now working half time than I did working full time. And I'm a lot more pleasant to be around

Do you do it legally?

Yes. It's really straight forward - go for an interview in the US with bank statements for the last 6 months at a Mexican consulate, then go to Mexico and 3 weeks later (after a few local visits) you have your temporary residency card.

There's not that many countries with immigration problems like the US. The majority of governments don't care much.
