I've been traveling for about 14 years and living abroad is a very attainable goal and comfortable lifestyle.
tldr is get a passport, get any remote job for 10-15 hours a week, move to one of the $500 countries, rest, recuperate, live.
Take it from there without financial pressure weighing you down; build up passive income, get access to better healthcare, great food, world wonders and innumerable other benefits.
If you are an English speaker, you have immediate access to thousands of teaching jobs that pay anywhere from $2000-10000 USD per month.

Honestly, a lot more people could do this than they think. The hardest part is usually getting stable remote income, but once that’s covered, living abroad can genuinely be cheaper and less stressful than staying in some high-cost countries
Absolutely, I've met people from many countries and walks of life living comfortably and happily abroad.
Income should be considered, and since travelers don't have to pay for housing restrictions, private vehicles, car insurance, utilities, wifi, home insurance, vehicle maintenance, and more than anything travelers get to choose their cost of living, the required stable income is far less than is necessary for a sedentary person.
Teaching ain't for everyone
That's okay, nothing is.
