> Remote work allows you to live virtually wherever you want.
That's not exactly true per se. My wife is from the country of Tunisia and my plan was to live and work from there, but once I got to the offer stage at each and every company said I must work within the US citing IRS regulations. While I'm not entirely clear why I've also seen a number of remote jobs that are only eligible in certain states within the US as well.
The situation is even worse if you happened to move to a US territory because you're in a quasi-unemployable zone since US companies won't hire in most of the territories (I have never been given a specific reason) and the EU basically bans business with a few of them for odd tax reasons (that shouldn't apply since the banking system is still run by US institutions).
