I’ve been nomading for 6+ years but would say the first 2 years — broke broke broke and scraping by. The last 4 has been good. I make anywhere from $5k-9k CAD per month and live in SEA so costs are low. Have my own marketing agency.
I think the best advice for anyone is aim to make as much as you would back home — so if you decide to stop nomading you have a good career and can afford life , have savings etc.
I choose more of an expat life in SEA due to costs but still visit home every Christmas. I save a good amount of my salary and invest it because cost of living is so affordable in Asia.
Now if I was doing the same thing back home … I would be barely saving money and paycheque to paycheque so it’s one of the best life hacks if you can find a way to make it work
