If you have a highly desired skill in developed countries, like medecine, engineering, highly skilled technician etc. it's a good way to get a long term visa supported by the hiring organization. Usually those countries will advertise the professions they want next to professional visa procedures. Otherwise you can try to marry someone from there.

I'm not, and I have no international potential wives.

I have been saying, on lemmy, hey anybody wanna do a sham marriage, since Trump got elected again... no takers so far.

Maybe you can give it a try in real life.

Hard to do when you're crippled and can't walk too far or operate a vehicle.
