Wouldn't that defeat the purpose of not going to work in the first place? It seems to me that with all the work and traveling it would take to live in all these other countries it seems like it would be easier just to stay home and go to work.You can go for about 3 months almost anywhere. Then fly out and go back, rinse repeat. Or just travel around. $2000 a month and I'm living as a UBI nomad traveling the world or just doing visa runs for the rest of my life. Never working again.
Or in flyover country: I get $2000, my wife gets $2000. $50K/ year for doing nothing. You can easily live on that even in cities outside of SF/ LA/ DC/ etc. Neither of us are ever working again. If we get like $1K per kid, holy shit. No one in the country is ever working again.
Okay but not everyone is married and has kids. What about single guys in their 20s (like me) who aren't tied down to anyone? How are we supposed to live off $2000 a month? People like me will have to go to work regardless, but at least with the extra $2000 in our pockets we won't have to worry about not making rent that month because we needed to buy enough food to last us the next 2-3 weeks.
