i'm fed up. i want to travel. i want excitement. life is short.
i'm becoming increasingly prepared to take my next student loan installment of 2000 quid and move to america for a year or so. that would involve dropping out of college. but seriously, that sounds so appealing right now. i'm only in my first year, and the course sucks. I mean i really don't learn much. I have no enthusiasm. The only thing that I go in for is a hot girl that I was seeing, and really really like, but now that has all gone wrong and we are just like best mates, which is amazing - she is amazing, but it will all end in tears when she runs off with another man and tells me in graphic detail about her one night stands etc....
so, how easy would it be to get to america, get a job, and stay for a year or so with 2000quid ($3864) ???
will anyone employ a lowly brit? a music related job would be so ace.
also, where to go? america is a big place. nyc? sounds like fun but will i get my face shot off? san fran? la? canada even?
any ideas? anyone got a job for me? anyone rent me a house? wanna start a band?
i need to be decided within a week, cos i'm supposed to be moving in with some college mates, and i can't leave them in the lurch and run off to america. but know i am very seriously considering this.
another problem, i have a fear of flying. now i will put up with this obviously, but anyone know of boat travel to america/candada? is it possible? expensive?
i need advice and ideas.

Lotsa pubs love hiring brits:

they can pay you under the table and save on TAXES.

paying under the table doesn't save the employerer taxes! it costs you, the employererer more in the end as you have to take that "under the table" income and either "hide it" or clame it as empoyerer draw.... if u pay employement taxes on it as an employerr, u can deduct those taxes paid.
far... traveling far... without a home, but not without a star

If your employer doesn't send $$$$ to FICA or Soc. Security, and instead pays you in cash, they can pay out less without having to pay you less.

Haha.
I didn't say _I'd_ pay rave4prize under the table. And what does he have to fear from the IRS? You can't bleed a turnip, especially a foreign one.
And if I were him... I'd fear the INS more than the IRS if I were just coming to America for a year & hoping to find work.
