Different countries have different requirements for visa/residency. Some countries require sponsorship to gain a work visa, while others will give you residency if you are willing to invest x amount of money into the country.

Also remember that just because you leave the US doesnt mean you dont have to pay US taxes...if you make over a certain amount per year the income is taxable.
What part of HK do you live in?

I've been toying with the idea of leaving Thailand for HK.
