- Mike Swigunski is a 33-year-old nomadic entrepreneur who moved to Tbilisi, Georgia from the U.S. He is able to take advantage of tax benefits from living abroad and a low cost of living that allows him to work as little or as often as he likes, and he still manages to make $275,000 a year. As a result he has traveled to 100 countries, can afford a two-story apartment, and has a private chef come six times a week to cook for him.

I Live Better In Tbilisi Than I Did In The US - Here’s How Much It Costs | Relocated
Why is every digital nomad’s job running a business that teaches other people to be a digital nomad?
Exactly, people selling courses earn 50 times more on those courses than on the actual thing they teach in them :) We are at the point where everyone wants to teach and no one wants to do an actual work, and that will change very soon.
selling the dream is more profitable than the actual dream

@@kvgolfa Mike here...I really appreciate the comments ;-) and yes, it can be pretty meta at some times! My intentions are to help inspire, impact and educate millions of people on a alternative path in life (period) and I'll be the first to admit its not for everyone. I've funded my travels with a variety of different physical, remote jobs and of course through my own businesses...and my book is only a tiny % of my 6 sources of income.

If your income is in dollars or euros, then Georgia is a good place to live but if your income is in GEL, then it is terribly difficult to live here. It is much more difficult for locals to live in Georgia than for foreigners. That is why Europe and America are full of Georgian immigrants.
I think the same is true for almost every country in the world except the US and some European countries. You can travel any Asian or African country and you will be rich with your salary. But locals don’t have your salary from developed country.
This is the case for most non Western countries. A Western European or American will be rich regardless whether they move to South America, Africa, or most places in Asia.

Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. The stock market has plenty of opportunities to earn which I myself took advantage of. I made my first million from going diverse, mainly ETFs(stocks, bonds etc), bitcoin , and gold. I'm also working on an investment plan that includes NFTs with my advisor, Katie Haun . It's been a year and half of steady growth.

Tbilisi is fairly cosmopolitan city in a developing country but the people are wonderful the food is delicious. And as an African American woman I felt very safe living there. The only thing I don't miss about it is how cold it gets.

It’s not about living better. It’s about harmony, spirit. I America it’s all about money, bills, credit.
Was looking for this comment. I hate when "digital nomads" falsely mislead people into thinking life in x country is soo much better when they aren't actual citizens of that country or make the average wage of that country's citizens. All this, while making cost of living in that country more expensive for locals by "living" there with their high foreign salary/money; and not paying the full extent of taxes the citizens do. My friends in Spain can't even afford a place to live, other than with their parents, thanks to "digital nomads" and a host of other problems.
If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.
The first step to successful investing is figuring out your goals and risk tolerance either on your own or with the help of a financial professional but is very advisable you make use of a professional like I did. If you get the facts about saving and investing and follow through with an intelligent plan, you should be able to gain financial security over the years and enjoy the benefits of managing your money.
The stock market rally run is gone, but I'm not
sure if equities will swiftly recover, keep falling, or fluctuate in a narrow range for a few weeks, or if things will quickly get worse. I'm under pressure to increase my $300k reserve.
Making touch with financial advisors like Kimberly Kent who can assist you restructure your portfolio, would be a very creative option. Personal financial management will be crucial to navigating the next difficult times.
I agree with you! With her help, I diversified my 450k portfolio among different markets. During this bearish market period, I was able to produce a net profit of little over $1 million from high dividend yield stocks, ETFs and equity. However, the reality is that you cannot do it without a tried-and-true trading coach like Kimberly Kent
Her success story is everywhere. I keep on hearing expert Mrs Kimberly's name being mentioned here and other platforms, Does she really worth the credits and reviews?

Georgian cuisine is absolutely mind-blowing, simply unparalleled
Yes, I have a sense you are correct. I tried Georgian food in Estonia recently.
Having a job that pays 275K$ a year in USA and living there also makes one’s life easier but with that amount of salary (income) and living in Tibilisi of course makes one living in a heaven :)
You could buy a 2 houses in a year with that salary lmao
In Georgia if you have 500$ income a month you will live very well but there is not much to do compared to US or other developed country

Not an entrepreneur, a guru. Just look up his IG and then google him, you'll see where all of his $40k/year salary comes from and his "business" failings from other guru scams.
More then that. In Georgia 1% tax applies only if you make 150k a year, after that it’s 20% tax

You might not have a hundred million dollars to invest, but that doesn’t mean your money can’t share in the same opportunities available to others. You work hard for your money; make sure your money works hard for you.
The wealth you pass to the next generation can have a profound impact on your heirs, providing educational opportunities, the capital to start a business, or financial support to your grandchildren.
To manage investment risk, consider maintaining a broad diversification of your investments that reflects your personal risk tolerance, time horizon, and the nature of your financial goal. Remember, diversification is an approach to help manage investment risk. It does not eliminate the risk of loss if security prices decline.Because investing can be complicated, consider working with a financial professional to help guide you on your wealth-building journey.

Yay so glad to see some coverage of Georgia! Lived there in 2012-2014 for Peace Corps and had intended to live there afterwards but had to move back to the US for personal reasons. Georgians are incredible people and I absolutely fell in love with the culture.
As a content creator who lives in Tbilisi, I'm so proud to see this 😊😊
I have never been there but know from soviet times here in Uzbekistan from people who have been there. Georgia is a beautiful unique country, climatewise , nature, food and great culture! You made a great choice!
So I’ve lived in Georgia for a total of 6 years, coming in and out since 2010. Anyone considering moving here should know Georgians consider foreigners to either be tourists/guests or citizens, and you’re only a citizen of you’re married to a Georgian. Georgians do not consider foreigners as residents. Even though I am fluent in Georgian, have worked in Georgian companies, and visited every region here, ok still a “guest” after 6 years. In other words, don’t expect to integrate as it’s a closed society, and I actually understand and agree with Georgians about this.
This is the most pointless thing I've read all day.
I actually don't see a problem with this. As long as you have money, you can live a great life in Georgia, not sure why it would matter to "integrate". you can always have friends from your own country
Do you think it would be any different for any foreigner in say, Norway, Sweden, Germany, China, Saudi Arabia, Israel...etc? They're exactly the same.
Georgians was a 3.5 million in country and 15% of this 3.5 million was Azeri or Armenian. Most Georgians lives in other countrys because of historic pacts. Now imagine if we accept all foreiginers as a georgian. If we did this georgians can destroy their own identity. Only in china's one street lives more people than in all Georgia. We don't can accept everyone in this globalization era.
@@noworldfortheweak Too many for Kartvelians, we've been too kind. Also, many Kartvelian cities are in modern day Turkey as well. Lazica and Meskheti will be returned to Sakartvelo.

Tbilisi rent prices went up like 2.5x after the invasion and subsequent sanctions in Russia and the following swift banking shut down. Nevertheless, Tbilisi Georgia seems like an absolutely beautiful city. Sincerely hope Russia does not start claiming all the citizens are WW2 Bad guys and try to destroy it.
But what is an ugly city if you have a rain forest for example in some central american countries the cities are not so nice but the nature and everything else blows tiblisi completely out of the water I mean if wanted to live in city i live in london berlin tokyo not tiblisi. But if you have money you can live well in afghanistan..

Yeah, when he said a 2 bdr costs him $600, no it doesn't... not anymore. Today it's going for $1000-1500 esp. in downtown.
I agree. As the SDE from Georgia, I receive a lot of offers to relocate to different countries and I always reject such offers because, living in my country is very cheap and taxes are also very low, so I'm able to collect money easily. Anyway, Georgia has one of the best nature in the world, so come and see it.
best nature? have you ever been to nature?
@@raphaelverde4571 Are you kidding me ? Most of my vacation I spend my time in Georgian nature. I'm from Svaneti, you can Google what is Svaneti :)
Also, every picture I see of the "Good Life" in Georgia shows the sun drenched beaches, with cool looking people in lounge chairs chilling. But they never show the real chill days when it snow there. It gets stupid cold in Georgia!
Wow, I can't believe this vide ocame out just last month , which was around the time I started asking myself, can I really upend my life and move abroad? Since then it's kind of been on the backburner of a thought and watching this video was actually really inspiring and re-assuring. I'll have to revisit that idea again....it's either Georgia or Latvia is what I'm looking at....
look at Croatia
then be ready to be in the new Russia also?
So this type of people outsource their income from already wealthy people in wealthy countries, come to countries where taxes are low, contribute very little to the local economy and local social life as they don't integrate, speak only english. Meanwhile because they have so much money and don't know better they overpay for real estate and rents so that drives up the price for everyone and pushes out locals because they can't afford it anymore. Digital nomads are a pain, if you want to move to another country you gotta bring something for the place, not just take from it
You are absolutely right

Georgia is not safe considering long term. Russia wants to recreate USSR and Georgia is one of the former republics of this communist state. Putin invaded Ukraine and is destroying our buildings and killing our people(including civilians). And the pretext for this invasion was to call us nazis(bad guys from WW2), though our president is jew. And depending on the results in Ukraine, he will decide weather to invade other country of the former USSR and which. That is why Ukraine heavily needs any support. (You can donate to save life foundation ukraine) Ukraine is protecting democratic way of life, life of freedom, life without borders.(russians banned youtube among other services in Kherson and other regions that they took)

Try fixing your life and stop thinking that all problem go away once you leave far away and hide from them. Solve them, don't run.
Probably one of the rarest and most useful comment I have seen for long in youtube relating this nomadic lifestyle!
@Mr.Beant I just explained why it's not sustainable. Why do you respond with "everyone is different" like it's an argument? People can't do this. It doesn't matter if they like it and are different compared to me. It's still a scam. And I never forced anyone to do anything. Why tell me to "let people follow what they want to". I criticized how it's unlikely that they'll follow this since being a nomadic entrepreneur is not sustainable, done the way that is presented in this video.
@@user-dn6ht6bo7r yeah but, getting rich without actually providing any value to society, who wouldn't want that?
Making money off teaching other people to be successful, then advertising how successful you are on cnbc lol. That’s what’s wrong with today’s world. No real value brought here.
The thing is, you think people like him care? They don't work hard and they live cushy. This is why I am not a hater, you cannot find 1 millennial who would not do this if they could. I do not care if they are a fast food worker of if they went to law school or if they are a Nurse.
...and 5 other sources of income.
These people are the reason locals can barely afford housing
Wow i didn’t think of it like that.
Kinda of sad now that I’m realizing it

Don’t hate the player, hate the game.
Actually housing prices doubled in Georgia since the war started with all these Russians coming escaping from Russia.
@giddy - Georgia has some of the highest home ownership for any country...this isn't really a problem (source: many local friends). And you have to consider a tourist/expat like myself is 1. hiring locals (providing jobs) 2. Spending 3-5x more into the local economy than the average local. It's truly a win-win and one of the many a reason they are VERY welcoming here (especially to Americans!)
Some people be hating in the comments because they think this is the perspective of a rich guy living in Europe. BUT this can be done easily with the average person with a normal income in the US that can also work remotely.
I've come to realise that there's no secured job in
NY, you get employed today and get sacked the next month.
This was exactly the point I was trying to make
with my friend, there's no good paying jobs, that was why I rushed into crypto and I see crypto as a safe heaven
That's 100% true because the jobs I saw was just less than $1000 weekly
which is very bad for a short widow with 3 kids
That was why I got involved in
crypto 2020, now I know l can pay my bills
without depending on any good pay job
Investing in crypto is not as
difficult most people say, I've been in crypto for the past 4 years now
I'm really interested in this forex/crypto business but I'm scared
With $250k a year you can live good in Missouri, even in Florida and you don’t have to move to a still developing country.
Tbilisi is way cooler though
Lol. Missouri, or a cool hip city with hot women. Hmmm. So tough.
Missouri sound lame
@@soupdrinker Missouri is very lame
Um,a single guy in NYC or San Fran can live well on 275k a year. 🙄
Incredible! I did not know about that tax benefits.
People dont realize that Georgia is not only cheaper but also much safer than US or most of Europe. The only downside is low salaries. So looking for a job here is a bad idea.
@@ILubBLOfficial 😑 if war will start noone will tell you to go in war zone... You just leave 😂 its really easy b
@@ILubBLOfficial its one of the safest countries according to official safety ranking metrics.
@@ILubBLOfficial but you do not have some psychos killing peoples in moves or in the streets.maybe chek some statitics how many people dies in usa in a day
Russia wants to recreate USSR and Georgia is one of the former republics of this communist state. Putin invaded Ukraine and is destroying our buildings and killing our people(including civilians). And the pretext for this invasion was to call us nazis(bad guys from WW2), though our president is jew. And depending on the results in Ukraine, he will decide weather to invade other country of the former USSR and which. That is why Ukraine heavily needs any support. (You can donate to save life foundation ukraine) Ukraine is protecting democratic way of life, life of freedom, life without borders.(russians banned youtube among other services in Kherson and other regions that they took)
Safe like Moldova? 😂🙄
Congrats, man. I'm surprised you managed to stay in shape after tons of Khinkalis and khachapuris.
Living the dream by selling the dream, Nice!
Extremely motivating video for those of us that are also working towards F.I.R.E.; being a digital nomad/entrepreneur, global citizen and accumulating investments/assets for financial security. Not impossible, just takes time.
Is that happiness for you? Sounds empty.
@@alp.9672 freedom sounds empty?
Fake guru
what part of 275K/year is FIRE?
Keep on keeping on. You can do it. I am, in Mérida Mexico. Eye on the prize and ignore the ignoramus. :)
Thanks for your video bro because of it and what I heard you say about your mother made me come visit Tbilisi to see for myself. You're spot on about everything. It's a wonderful city. I'm going to be moving there in June 2023. It would be wonderful if you and I can connect. Please let me know if that's possible..
Used to live there for my dad’s work, loved the city sm it’s beautiful
Reminds me of Nomad Capitalist with Andrew Henderson
There are others who do similar who aren’t as smug and take an elitist attitude like him.
@@kevinstfort Andrew Henderson looks and acts like the guy who spent half his middle and high school career getting swirlies in the boys bathroom. He's just such a friggin' what I call "dork nerd".
I wish I could leave. I have a family so it’s kinda hard to relocate us all.
I wanna move to a place in Africa continent…. Maybe Cape Town or Kenya.
I just wanna be around African people & learn the culture that was stripped from us during slavery.
Word! Same here! 🎯
💛 Yes. We need to build those communities in Africa as well when we go.
So many things have been wiped away via books written by the victors…
Crazy to books written about someone’s history from ppl that were taught by the ppl who “colonized” . It’s like 🤔🤔 can ya trust em to provide the truth. Hopefully all isn’t lost for the lost ppl..
Do it, you might have to go on your own at first and show your family the benefits you are reaping from the move in order to convince them
Africa would be the best bet for Black Americans to build general wealth with their earnings/ savings from US working remotely especially in Kenya.
Excellent video. Very compelling.
Living the dream. I just want to be able to raise babies anywhere I want, sipping tea with a ton of books. 🥰🥰🥰
This guy's footage can be found on Canva as stock footage. I thought he looked super familiar lol.
haha yeah, I have a lot of footage/photos on UnSplash (connected via Canva)! :-)
Good for you!
All the babes in his classes. Congrats bud 👏
Thank you for this video. This was actually one of the countries on my list! I am from Hawaii and I want to escape the high cost of living however I heard 🇹🇷 has better value for your buck compared to 🇬🇪 however I am discovering other value countries like Argentina, some gulf state counties and Taiwan
All great choices!!! 👍
Don’t move to Taiwan. Not when China is ready for war.
Malaysia, Phillipines, Turkey
Each and every to their own. Some are building their dreams by diving for gold in the Bering Sea out of Nome, Alaska. Others, like myself, decided to work around and include as many family members as possible. This approach has excluded wandering off to the far corners of the earth by myself; too lonely and boring.
Just ordered your book 👍👍 very inspiring
Thanks for the support, hope you enjoy it! 🙏🏻
@@MikeSwigunski I am also from USA and start learning SE.. It’s very inspiring to me
I was waiting for the Nomad Capital ad to pop up during this video.
If he were really wealthy, he would live where he wanted. It is really cheap there because the people are not paid well.
Also noticed the women walking in the street. I haven’t seen a single land whale
Best interview yet!
Thanks Ace!!! 🙏🏻
I love your videos ace! I would love to work with you one day!!!
Mike: you are a truly impressive man!!!!!
600$ a month 2,500 square feet, dude I’m in Houston paying 1,225$ for 1,000 square feet and marble counters I must know more about that country
Triple that in California.
yeah but if wouldnt be making that much money living there. Peoples average is $8k a year there lol. To live like this you still need to be making money online or somehow so you are getting money from like "united states" people.
That is cheaper than Northeast USA
The rent here has increased since the war began, it's actually ridiculous now
@@fly4561 What about in other cities like Kutaisi?
I love this video. My girlfriend and I were literally talking about this night. You can move to Mexico, Georgia, etc and have a much better life for you and your children.
It's complicated, though. Language, income, etc.
No way you are considering moving to Mexico 💀. My dad gas Mexican friends and they always talk about how they never ever want to go back to mexico.
How does Banking transaction works in Tbilisi? Can we do International Transfer?
Swigggyy!!! Love the life you're living!
Appreciate it my man, looking forward to crossing paths soon…hopefully in Spain! 🇪🇸
Hey Jimmy, hey Swig!
Did this guy become rich by just telling people how to become rich and a digital nomad? lmao scam city
He put me straight to sleep 😴😴😴
