Can you expand on what you do? I can't even imagine a situation where you would not have data structures nor algorithms.

So far, I've been paid to ship machine learning tutorial content for an education startup. I got the client through upwork.

Think of all the people that know less about site administration/programming than you. These people would rather spend their time working on their business and pay you to work in it.

It also helps that cost of living in South America/SEA is much lower than the US. I was paying $150/month rent in Medellin, Colombia, for example.
