I don't think anytime we'll have more than 0.1% of population living digital nomad lifestyle. Even most people who have the opportunity, still prefer living in one place, with their family.
- ace_of_spades 8y agoI think in this thread two things might be conflated. Afaik not all digital nomads dodge taxes or do it purposefully to evade taxes as presented in the top post. So, everything I have been saying is coined to the specific situation outlined in that post. I don‘t want to criticize a digital nomad lifestyle in general. But back to your point and assuming that the digital nomads you are talking about are the ones dodging taxes. It doesn‘t really change anything about the argument. The problem that not taxing these people seems arbitrary to the normal person because there is nothing special that those people provide compared to the average entrepeneur. The average tax dodging nomad doesn‘t pull his/her own weight => this lifstyle wouldn‘t scale.
