I have always been blown away by money requirements for such visas, in many countries.
Show monthly income of 1000000 ISK. Over 7k USD. Why?
I used to live in Dubai, which is considered pretty expensive place, and never spent over 2500 per month, despite dining out almost all the time. Maybe 3000 if I needed some purchases like clothing or hobbies stuff.
I get it, Numbeo says Iceland is 13% more expensive, but 7k? What exactly kind of lifestyle are they expecting from humble nomad?
Not all nomads work remotely for FAANG. Some live happy nomad life with much lower income.
