Я знаю некоторые Linux и переобучаю свои навыки. Я гражданин США и скоро получу временный вид на жительство в России. Я могу работать откуда угодно, но не хочу возвращаться в США.

You kinda have to say it’s wonderful 😂 you’ll get a phone call if you don’t
20:45 'Here, I get the feeling that even if the government does shady things - which we know they do - somehow I'll be taken care of. And I am.' Wow, Steven. Just wow. Somehow I get the feeling that you'll understand why I've highlighted this for you to read back to yourself.
Can't get a lady incel? I'll show u all & move to Russia!
Are all of these positive comments from Putin/RT agents?
Hi Buddy thanks for this video it looks amazing ,the things we dream of
I love these videos because Russia is a sh!thole I’m glad I never have to go back to. Enjoy yourself!😂
I am french, my mother is Russian from Moscow. I have my Russian passport, and we went to Moscow with my mother in July 2024. For me, it was the first time in 22 years. I fell in love again with everything i saw and lived there. People are nice, streets are clean, restaurants are beautiful and clean. I now taking Russian lessons, and i will go back at the end of the year. For me, the future is there, in my motherland. My dream will soon come true 🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺
@@emiledjelassi5225 I’m glad to hear about others enjoying this beautiful country as much as I do!
10 out of 10 😂
Прекрасное взаимопонимание.
Russia seems awesome
I also think that we are more like hobbits, rather than orks. Nasty, angry hobbits.:))
Replace pipe-weed with vodka and there you have it)))
== GOOD JOB==
RUSSIA seems to be HEAVEN for the world's HOMOPHOBES !
food in Russia is not poisoned, GMO, plastic coated, or has not intentionally had industrial wasted put in the food.
Какой хороший русский язык!

Stephen, I watched your recent interview where you mentioned that you would like to take a degree in linguistics in order to teach English better. I am an English teacher myself with more than 10 years of experience and my advice for you would be to take a CELTA course. An offline one! It is very practical and was designed especially for native speakers who decided to become teachers. I did mine in Budapest and enjoyed it a lot 😊
@@IELTSElena-tv9ll My friend and mentor Ilya took a CELTA course and greatly benefitted from it, however, the expense is something far too great for me to consider right now. Once we get the house in a good condition and I can find some more income, I might consider it later on. Right now I’m just dreaming.
@@RussiaAmericanDream I do understand you. I was lucky to do the course in 2014 when the expenses were quite reasonable. One of my colleagues did the course in Georgia. I guess that is the cheapest option right now. Anyway I do not see any practical need for to go to university and study linguistics as a native speaker you will definitely stay within communicative approach and do conversational classes
When I visited St Petesburg I made friends, and I actually met a gay young guy and he was for Putin's law, he told me children should not be influenced even non- intentionally. And that sex orientarion like sex was a private issue and should stay there. There are big women but because there a Russian women with big frames. The food wowww. Noooo GMO fruits, vegs, grains!! Russians are very stern but very helpfull. Which is sooo curious. You think stern people are not. Corruption, yes there is like in USA. But a different kind. They do have a president that did make Russia great again and cares for his people, not that he is saint but he is a patriot.
I have traveled to US, often, lived in Canada and Mexico, visited Russia, wonderful country. When the SHTF where would I prefer to be? In a place that You can have a homestead and good community and family values with people with extraordinary resilience and use to hard times and war. Not that Russia doesn't have crime or organized crime but they know they cannot be visible.
Well thats why they say : if you dont know your past, you cant know your future. Americans should ask themselves - how many wars America actually won in the past? I mean real wars, not propaganda wars. And then they should ask themselves - how many wars have Russia actually lost in the past? I mean for more then 1000 years of history.
@@diaphant1 best comment all day
интересная прогулка
Do you pay income taxes in Russia? State taxes? If so how much?
The biggest enemy to America will not come from outside the country but from within.
Well said.
I would love to relocate to Moscow
If kamala wins. Im moving to Mat Rossiya 🇷🇺
Good luck with the job hunt! IT jobs seem to be thinning out these days (even in the US/western Europe). Lots of IT companies are letting tens of thousands of employees go.
@@MnemonicCarrier yeah, I’m honestly thinking about permanently staying out of the IT gig, I pray for an IT job, I get more students or customers
@@RussiaAmericanDream I got out some time ago, although I'm still taking on some small contracts/consultancy work (nothing big, just a few bucks here and there). I'm a Linux guy, and have set up quite a few "in-house solutions" for various customers throughout my career - mostly small businesses who don't have the money to hire permanent IT staff. Has been very simple stuff - file shares, VPN servers, self-hosted chat servers, web based accounting systems etc etc etc... Hoping to return to Russia soon, not sure what I'll be doing when I get back there. Thinking about starting a LUG (Linux Users Group) in English - not for money, just to teach folks about Linux. From everything I've seen in the last couple of years, it looks like the global economy is circling the drain. Anyway, once again - all the best, and good luck (whatever you decide to do)!
@@MnemonicCarrier the Linux user group is a good idea, I would be your first member. Let me know if you need help getting here, I started a consulting business helping people immigrate. @stephen_SSTA on Telegram
I would feel like a target if I went to Russia. Not against Russia at all, but they have their fair share of political arrests too.
All conservatives in America have a target on them, but they successfully maintain the popular myth that it’s the land of the free and the brave.
Uh oh! Just saw the last minute of your video. You should probably watch it back yourself. You openly admitted to being in love with the male-dominated society that is “amazingly masculine”. You love men and masculinity, but you moved to an extremely anti-gay country. Looks like you’re in a pickle.
Please, tell us more about how “cheap” the groceries are! Yes, in pure dollars and cents, or rather rubles bin this case, the number is very low. But AS A PERCENTAGE OF THE AVERAGE MONTHLY PAYCHECK, Russians are spending close to half of their entire monthly earnings just on groceries 😬
A gas station with nuclear weapons sounds badass.
It does, there was a cartoon in the 80’s called M.A.S.K. and the gas station transformed into a battle fortress, this comment reminded me of that lol
It seems like living in Russia is solitude that's always a great thing 💯 Bro

42 años y soltero, y nonne arriesgaria a formar una familia en España ni en occidente. Por las leyes feminazis que hay y cada dia nas la gente. Y me muero de pena por que me gustaria crear una familia y de me acaba el tiempo. También oienso en irme a Rusia, pero tengo ansiedad desde hace unos años y ahora estoy con mi madre de alquiler, no ouedo dejarla sola cuando la convencí que se viniera a mi ciudad a 90km de la suya por qué ambos estabamos solos y yo estaba pasando fuete crisis con la ansiedad. Veo videos de como se vive en Rusia y es lo que deberia de se occidente, no LGBT, los jóvenes se casan y tienen hijo, no feminazis, no guetos de salvajes incivilizados, etc... estan acabando con occidente y la pena es inmensa, 😢. Pero Rusia va a prevalecer por lo menos, cuanto me gustaría, estoy aprendiendo algo de ruso en Duolingo y ahorrando dinero por si acaso. Cuatobke gustaría casrme y tener una familia y las 3 relaciones anteriores imposible por que tienen la cabeza destruida con el feminismo de mierda y una inmadurez tremenda. Les dicen "No tengas hijos y no te juntes cn un hombre o te perderas la vida", " un hogar con hijos es un hogar pobre" te puedes creer semejante basura? "No aceptes que el hombre se imponga" entonces ya no ke ouedes decir nada, oor que se vuelven locas por que creen que la estas sometiendo, entonces ya solo somos floreros para servirla a ellas en occidente. En lugar de pensar que ambos nos sacrificamos oor el otro y nuestra familia, envejecer juntos, poder repasar las historias vividas con una persona cuabdi seas mayor, no con 1.000 parejas, a las que tendras que llamar a cada una con 70-80 años para recordar tu vida. Acabará todo el mundo sólo y triste sin hijos nietos o con ellos que no saben si son un árbol un hombre o una mujer.
Верно, за подвиги Бог дает благодать.
Due to U.S. sanctions, unfortunately, Americans cannot work in fields such as IT, engineering, architecture, consulting, and cybersecurity in Russia, as per OFAC sanctions laws.
@@aznsensation9917 this is incorrect. Americans can work for any company in Russia if they have a work permit. Working remotely or providing remote services might be difficult, however, if one is inside the Russian Federation and actively moving towards citizenship, there isn’t much the US can say about it
@RussiaAmericanDream, I understand that you disagree, but many future American expatriates have family members in the United States and cannot afford to violate sanctions laws. OFAC (Office of Foreign Assets Control) is essentially the enforcement arm of the US Treasury Department. They explicitly prohibit Americans from opening sanctioned bank accounts in Russia or working in career fields, especially IT and cybersecurity, that are explicitly sanctioned by the US government. They will find out after they file a tax return. On the 1040 tax return, we have to include the company's name and occupation in Russia. For example, if the IRS finds out you work for a sanctioned company in a field that is illegal by OFAC, it will trigger a notice to the US Department of the Treasury, and you will receive a hefty penalty.
@RussiaAmericanDream, as long as you work as an English teacher, work as a farmer, or work in a job that is not sanctioned by the U.S. government, you will be fine in the eyes of the U.S. government. Believe me, many Americans do not like the U.S. government, but what can we do about it?
@RussiaAmericanDream, regardless of your thoughts on this topic, I sincerely wish you well and happiness in your life in Russia.
If you don't plan to come back, does it really matter?
How did i get to vatnik internet
It's going to be a little easier soon after the decree Putin signed
If you're an American, before you start a new life in Russia, I highly recommend that you first consult with an immigration lawyer to ensure that you comply with Russian immigration laws and that you don't violate the OFAC sanctions laws with the US government.
Immigration lawyers who speak English charge 10-20 times what their services are worth. There are multiple immigration agencies being set up right now (I run one) who can save people lots of money by answering the easier questions that expats have, because they have experience moving here.
Do you have more information about your services? I barely looked but will look more in a bit. Not super interested or stressed about moving but I am quite curious, to learn more.
How do you exchange usd into rubles what are the loopholes?
What do you love the most about Russia? With regards to culture , family values, religious commitment. How would you compare these in Russia with that in America?
@@shaikmohammedmansoor I find new things to love about this country every day. Family values, functional economy, a feeling of freedom, no cancel culture…the list goes on and on. I love it here.
Russia is a good place! There are problems definitely, but compared to free west it's haven. I am Russian, who used to lived in Europe and travelled a lot world wide.
It’s not perfect. I need to do a video about things that could be better, to keep the balance. Overall, it’s much better.
@@RussiaAmericanDream, обязательно снимите такое видео, было бы интересно услышать вашу критику.
👍👍👍👍👍
Sixty years back ,when we were children,we used to pray for the conversion of Russia. Our prayers are answered? Now I think Christians have to migrate to Russia to lead a good Christian life .what happened to the great citadels of Christianity? How the suicidal craps have destroyed western Christendom! The western atheists are responsible for this destruction. Now we can see how Islam with its fraudulent ways spreading and destroying the best ideology in the world.now we have to pray for the conversion of the western Christiandom!
Мощно! Отлично рассказал! И главное - все правда.
