Almost in tears reading all you supportive comments. Thank you everybody.

So my take is my biggest issue is to open a bank account that remote employers can pay me.

Another issue is to find a remote job/project that the employer is legally able to pay somebody located in Iran

Then having secured some money, Move to a cheap country so I'm able to take on more jobs.

Or just get a sponsored visa for Canada or Australia.

Do you consider getting a sponsored Visa a bad idea? Because otherwise I would have to make like $40,000-50,000, to support us for few months, get out of Iran and then look for jobs.

Can I do up working and get paid in crypto? Because bank accounts for Iranians is something that may get frozen any minute. Like actually any minute. Has happened to other people multiple times in past years

Will I be able to find a good job outside those sectors?

Actually, It isn't BS. I'm working as a bookkeeper making 350USD. If I worked as a developer I would be making like 700-800 USD probably. That's the situation in Iran. A lot of people live a lot under that.

I apologize for any bad meanings of my words. Completely unwanted.

That's true. But I believe Australia has more or less same policies as Canada. And since Australia has warmer weather, I'd rather go there.

Never stayed in a company for more than 3 months. Couldn't handle the pressure. So I mostly did freelancing. Mostly invoicing software for small businesses
