BiggerPockets Money Podcast: How to Get Paid to Live in an Affordable City

Allison Irby Vu, a financial planner, made a huge cross-country move to Tulsa through the Tulsa Remote program in pursuit of a better financial future. With roots planted in Washington, D.C., Allison hadn’t considered moving until she stumbled across the program that offered her $10,000 to relocate to Tulsa, Oklahoma. Little did she know that this major life change would not only improve her financial situation but also allow her to spend more time with her son and tight-knit community.

In this episode, you’ll hear all about Allison’s journey from her hometown to Tulsa. She shares how she went from living paycheck to paycheck (despite earning close to six figures!) to having an abundance of time and money for the things she values most. Allison also highlights the pros and cons of living in an area like Tulsa and horemote workers can plan their next big move.
