So…say I sell my house for $100k can I love in china on a modest budget for 10-15 years? Will they even let me as a foriegner? I’m gay I promise there will be no multiplying.
China is notoriously rigid on immigration. Only 10,000 permanent residencies are issued per year (the US issues around a million) and the only way a normal person without close family ties can get in is through making a series of large investments, or holding a high ranking position in a Chinese company for 3 years. So probably not.
That might be misleading. It’s pretty easy to get a work visa, which you can use to stay indefinitely, got to renew it though. Getting permanent residence is harder to qualify for, but if you’ve been in China for a while it’s easier. lots of people just stay in China very long periods of time on work visas.
What is the disposable income of ordinary Chinese workers?
Around 5,000 USD/yr

Well that’s reassuring. So long as you don’t get laid off, that is.
Would someone know if it’s possible to get paperwork from China if you’re married to a Chinese national who is overseas?
Because, if so, I’m gonna be looking for a wife.
