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.

I make 12k per month as a software developer.

And I am staying in a 1% tax country in EE.

I don't travel much, or even do much at all other than work, gym and some hobbies.

No SO or dependents. At this rate I could save/invest over 100k per year.

Don’t you still have to pay US income tax? Or is your employer in Europe?

I am not an American citizen; can't you tell my English is not spot on? ;)

I am not officially "employed" to anyone. I do work for American companies, but I just signed a W8-BEN, so I am responsible for dealing with my own taxes ... which I do, paying 1% every month very diligently.

Considering the facts that you’ve shared about yourself…Are you from Russia, by any chance? Just being curious.
