One of my travel bills (yes, I will do one every time I go)
An interesting fact is that since I became a full-time freelance writer six years ago, my annual income has never exceeded $25,000.
Yes, not at all.
And I have to point out that the income I am talking about is pre-tax income.
Although $25,000 may sound like a lot of money for some of you (not really), my one-year after-tax income (if it’s a good year) is almost the same:
-
$57.25 per day
-
$402.16 per week
-
$1742.50 per month
However, although my income is less than half of the median income in the United States, since 2007, I have traveled almost anywhere in the world for at least three months. You know, I have been to more than 40 countries, even living in Rome, New Zealand, Iceland and France for months or even years.
So, when I earn only $400 a week, I live in the most expensive city in the world.
