Yes, many. Rent is 3% of your salary and you don’t believe that that automatically grants you far more buying power than others?
You will never have to make the choice of paying for treatment or food, and retailers and insurers see this as a stat they can bank on to jack local prices.
Of course it grants me more buying power, but that doesn’t mean I’m using it. 80% of my income goes to savings, my lifestyle is no different to my next door neighbors, for whom the 20% I do spend is all they have. The only difference is that for every month I work, I can retire 4 month early.
Fair enough. To be fair, I don’t know you. I just wanted you to be in the category of digital nomads that I can rage against because the world is expensive and unjust, and if I’m suffering through it then so should you.
But that’s not fair to you. Sorry for pinning my frustrations on you, and I’ll try to be better in the future
No worries, it happens. Thanks for speaking it out though rather than just walking away, that really says something about your character. Much appreciated!
