Its not that hard if you are living in Europe, USA or some other County with a decent economy and currency. It might take a little longer depending on the county. For me it started easy, after backpacking for a month through Europe as European I could feel this desire to travel more. So 2013 I set my lifegoal to travel arround the world. One year later I specified it to travel for one year till end of 2018. I googled a little and found a Worldtrip costs 10'000-30'000 Fr.- per year. So when starting my first real Job I knew how much I need to save to make my lifegoal become true. So I addapted my life standards to this income. Fast forward, its 2016, I got a poor russian Girlfriend in Russia which I can't leave for a year. So know it means to save a little more and divide that through 2. So the base question, can you save 200$ a month? Then do it for 5 years. Can you save 400$ a month? Then do it for 2.5 years. Can you save 1000$ month? Do it for two years, because you can easily afford a nice world trip. Maybe its because most Swiss get raised to save money but its not that hard. Split the income as follows: 1/3 renting, 1/3 living, 1/3 saving. Put the money to save (automatically) on another account the day you get your salary. Its easier to save money you never had. So if a worldtrip is desires, set the goal of your near future life and live with the consequences to save those 200$.
