I agree, working online is the option to move into the affordable area. Just when you hit a certain age you can compare renting and maintenance cost and notice the difference
Actually it is that easy. The problem is you are falling into the trap of too much debt to income. I don't mean just stuff like credit cards or whatever. I mean all the stuff you pay each month.

The fastest way to increase your income is to cut your spending. Cut your expenses, go live in a van do whatever it takes to get yourself out of debt and in a position to keep your money and advance your goals.

I don't do all the traveling I do because I'm a baller or well off. I do it because I reduced my living expenses and made a sacrifice to be able to do what I want.

The key is, if you make a sacrifice for a goal, you have to make sure you can achieve the goal or the sacrifice is for nothing.
