0% of people will take your advice because it's half-baked and you didn't actually research the requirements (hint: simply knowing English is not enough) to get such a job. Or you purposefully omitted the requirements to make your point that it's "easy".

A word of advice: if you want to give advice, at least be realistic.

The requirements beyond being a native speaker, especially for the demographic of a forum like this, are not real show stoppers. And my advice is similar to the path I took with my own life, though not in Saudi Arabia. And it sent me on a journey that ended up way away from teaching English, but that's the nature of life.

The unspoken benefit of doing things like this is that it also exposes you to endless opportunities because the expats you meet half way around the world tend to be an exceptionally interesting batch. It's certainly a path I'd recommend to absolutely anybody who's not content with the typical treadmill of life.
