Been remote since 2015 and not gonna lie, thought about finding contractors on Fiverr or e-Lance (or whatever e-Lance is called these days) to do just that.
Basically become a PM for a team of four Vietenamese kids and pull in pay from 3 gigs.
I later did some contracting on the side of a full-time job in 2018 and it was hard -- confusion and burnout set in quickly. But still think about the offshoring approach sometimes...
There's any number of stories about it being done, but anyone who has tried working this way realizes that you either need very skilled underlings or you spend most of the time managing it anyway and could have done it yourself quicker.
