I saw you linked to a previous comment of mine. My personal strategy in life these last few years has been:
Move to Paraguay, which is extremely low cost of living, extremely low tax rate
Save 80-90% of my earnings while there
Use the slack to be able to do illegible bets (e.g., early on I incubated Sentinel with my consulting profits, though eventually I did raise funding)
Visit the US/Europe for a bit in the summer (also modellable as consumption).
This has had tradeoffs. Ultimately my impact might have been higher in the US if this had resulted in me raising more funding/coordinating more with donors, but I didn’t really feel particularly welcome (as opposed to evaluated) when I visited.
