I have spent the last 7-8 years traveling regularly. The past 5 years I've been traveling more than I have been at home, especially the last 2. I am not paid an exporbitant salary, although working remote helps with travel.
My parents are financially modest. My parents did their best to help me and I'm sure I got more help than many - but after the handful of years after HS I received no help whatsoever and in fact have lent both of my parents money over the years.
There are two big secrets:
1: Make it a priority.
2: Find a job that lets you travel.
It's easier now that I work remote, but I used to travel for extended periods of time back when I worked in restaurants. For a couple years I worked summers and would take the winter off to travel.
If travel is a priority, you can make it happen, and you don't need a trust fund.
