How much are the usual earnings of a digital nomad? (aka how much are you making?)

I feel most earn only $1000 to $2000 and spend it ALL on travelling. I don't think thats mentally and financially sustainable.

Its also a fake it till you make it (then try to sell courses on how to make it) game for a LOT of it..

Theres plenty of actual working location independant folks.. But the 'nomad movement' has more flakes and fakes than any other niche I personally have seen.

I live in Chiang Mai and the local joke is nomad = backpacker with a laptop. A huge proportion are just gap year young people but claiming they are hustling some business sounds better to chicks than just travelling.
