It's closer to $2k/month.
Here's the thing though: I paid too much for apartments (short-term rates). If I got a yearly lease and STAYED in one place instead of moving around, I bet I can easily get it down to $1250/month while living the same lifestyle. In fact my last months in Poland and last month in Croatia and Ukraine was silly cheap. The time I spent in Scandinavia (5 months) does distort the average somewhat.
$2k is the traveler rate when you look for apartments via google.
Roosh do you remember how much you spent per day in your Colombia, Brazil, Argentina trips? I always get a furnished apartment like you, but do more dates here in South America than nightlife. I try not to spend much, but I usually average 2000 dollars a month in Colombia and a bit more in Brazil.
Goes to show you that prices for a basic comfortable lifestyle are similar all over the world now.

I don't know what is wrong w/ the combination of the Forum and my browser, but I can't comment to posts.....only add new ones.
What I said is that I agree 100% with you Greek, that it is not just the cost of travel and living overseas. It is the cost of not working and paying for life back in your country that you not even benefiting from. I actually was paying for a mortgage on house that I wasn't living in. Horrible scenerio. I spent a fortune in my LT world travel escapades!

That looks pretty realistic to me. I seriously dont understand when a guy tells me that he spends 6 thousand per month when travelling, what are you doing with your money?
2000 dollars per month should be enough for most travellers as long as you are not renting luxury aparments and staying in expensive hotels.
30 thousand a year without a job would be ideal for most of us on here i would say.
