You want to travel more; you want to have more freedom. How? One of the things that becoming a remote worker allows you to do is escape the rat race. Start living below your means. STOP caring about "keeping up with the Joneses (or Kardashians, for that matter)." Remote work makes the social climb irrelevant and unmasks it for what it is - something Naval Ravikant calls a stupid game where you win stupid social prizes. What if that weren’t even a factor in your life anymore? Completely irrelevant? Sometimes I see digital nomads flying in first class on Instagram and I just laugh because they are living these amazing lives that no one can even see. Because you don’t park your BMW in front of an office when you work remotely. And it’s a beautiful thing. When you’re a digital nomad, you’re living your best life for you. It doesn’t matter who sees it. And it’s so fulfilling. About Kristin:  Kristin Wilson is an online entrepreneur, writer, speaker, and content creator who has lived and worked in 60+ countries. Sh
