Analysis Paralysis: Why More Research Won't Make the Move Easier

Most people think more research makes location independence safer. Past a certain point it does the opposite: the tenth comparison of two visa options tells you nothing the third didn't, and the "research" becomes a way of not deciding rather than a way of deciding. This post separates real sequencing (building income, closing out a tax jurisdiction) from stalling (rereading the same options for the fifth month), and argues that past that line, the risk isn't in acting too soon, it's in the runway burning while nothing moves. It ends with a single question that replaces waiting to feel ready with an actual line in the sand: what's the floor that makes this worth doing.
