Or Australia. Probably couldn't afford to live there, especially as a 20 a day smoking habit will set you back $900 a month... before you even start thinking about rent and general living costs!I can get my rent, bills, food, half a dozen beers a day, and cigarettes in Cambodia for less than $900 a month!
Just wondering if it's possible for those who joined in later. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I can just about pay my rent
Those who can survive on microstock alone, are an endangered species.Like animals threatened with extinction, they can survive for some time in areas with the most favourable conditions (i.e. "low costs of living") or if they are very strong.But I am afraid that at some point in the future, they will all go the way of the dodo, nevertheless. Unfortunately.
I have worked a bit on what I need to sell it for granted that I do not have any overhead. My place on Earth is in Scandinavia, which means that about 5600 US dollars per month is required to deal with living expenses and taxes. There is a long way to go yet.To achieve this required that I work full-time with photo and recruit models I pay and have a studio and great location to photograph. This drives cost (tax deductible in taxation).It is probably more profitable to sell photography services as the main job and let the unbooked time be used for the production of stock images.
Scandanavia is a very expensive country to live in I guess.

Yes well spotted if it was a country it would be expensive! Scandinavian countries I guess are expensive.
Yes, but it's usually more interesting to look at cities rather than countries. Just going an hour outside an expensive city will let you buy a big house for the same price as a small apartment within the city center. Groceries, parking, gym membership etc. Almost everything will be much cheaper.
