#Nomadlife Lessons Part One Altogether after many years as a nomad it’s time to share some lessons in #Nomadlife-Lessons-Part One-Bob Davis Podcast 1139. With this purpose in mind I set out to cram all the lessons into one podcast. But it turns out I have a lot of content to share when it comes to nomad lessons. State Of Mind In #Nomadlife-Lessons-Part One-Bob Davis Podcast 1139 I begin with our state of mind when we first test the nomad waters. Accordingly there’s some discussion about economic conditions these days. Conditions Before You Go That is to say conditions which might drive people out on the road and into #Nomadlife. Firstly there is the fact that housing has not decreased in price despite the reduction of inflation. Triggers Even more most working people have thirty to forty percent less buying power than they did in 2019. Certainly part of the reason I got rid of just about everything I owned was the increasing price of rent. And the overbearing nature of efforts to contain the pandemic. After that being on the road meant being free. No More Free Money In addition back in 2020 there were a number of pandemic relief funds and incentives which helped many to adopt the nomad lifestyle. All of the sudden those measures are no longer available… Back To Work Peasant Significantly as well these days more businesses are exhorting workers to return to the office. So I think the bloom might be off the rose slightly when it comes to hitting the road… On the other hand this reality can also be a trigger for chucking the nine to five suburban lifestyle. Especially when you consider some commutes are now seventy minutes long. Romance Is Still Strong However that does not diminish the romance of this alternative lifestyle. Revenue Stream Therefore these days one has to have some kind of revenue stream to do this. Obviously retirees have savings, pensions and social security. Contrarily younger people might not have those resources. And you don’t want to hurt your own savings or future retirement. Temporary Jobs In view of this fact I spend a little time sharing what I know about some of the temporary jobs available ‘out there’. Forget YouTube On the negative side many future nomads imagine themselves making bank from their YouTube channel. Of course if you have experience creating content that’s one thing… But chances are a YouTube channel or Instagram is not going to foot the bill for a nomad life. Most Nomad Content Include Lists Finally I see a lot of content on line about ‘the three things you have to do before becoming a nomad’ or ‘the sixteen things you need’ and so on. Certainly some of this is good advice… Adventure Equally important though, is the sense of adventure that comes from not knowing too much about something before you do it. Enlightenment And realizing you’re getting a lot out of something as you do it. Detail I’ll give you a little more content in detail about what this experience is like in the first of these two #nomadlife lessons podcasts. No Regrets In conclusion unlike many of the posts these days decrying the lifestyle I have not regretted doing this for one day.
