How Much Do I Actually Need to Move Abroad? Hint... It's not $20K.

from How to Move Abroad: Your Guide to Start Living Abroad · host Mistelle Godlewski

Everyone on the internet has an opinion about how much money you need to move abroad. Most of them are wrong — or at least, wrong for you.This week I'm giving you a simple formula to calculate your actual savings target based on your specific situation: where you're going, which visa you're using, and how long you need to float yourself before income kicks in. Because your number is built from those things — not from a Reddit thread and not from what someone else paid to move to Barcelona in 2019.I'm also getting into why the visa you choose changes everything about what you need financially — and how picking the right pathway for where you actually are right now might make this possible a lot sooner than you think.This is the last money episode. We're closing this chapter with a real number, a real timeline, and zero excuses.
