I know you write "no relationships" but maybe reconsider this.

Imo combine:

* low cost of living / fixed costs

* remote work for SF/Bay based companies (biggest delta in budgets vs talent available)

People tend to recommend "project based contract" work. Imo those attract people who want to pay less. Look for people who actually look for quality employees and are happy to pay global salaries. Combine this with a low cost of living and you have a good place to start with to save money.

eg $5k+ saving for a few months sounds reasonable if you compare it with "global salaries"

apart of that: you have a job that works in your resume and you might end up working on a project that becomes a big learning experience
