I Live Better In Bali Than I Did In The US - Here’s How Much It Costs | Relocated 

I noticed more more foreigner decided to live and work in Bali. This made huges changes on our land, 1.000 H rice field turned into concrete, more traffic more waste produced. What i worry is the significant changed on our culture and nature. Lets love Bali, its nature, culture and the people. Bali for all

I love seeing this! He's absolutely right about making sure your income is stable before going to Bali, he looks very happy with his lifestyle now. Better to go where you're appreciated and not just tolerated.

I moved to Bali in 2021 and everything he said is 100% true! With my US student stipend, I was living like upper middle class in Bali. My grades were the best they’d ever been and my mental health skyrocketed as a student and the Balinese people were so accepting. I was home 💗✨

Good to hear that he can escalate his economy in Bali. But many doesn't know, foreigners in Bali fail to respect the local values. Not all, but quite many. I hope this guy can bring much prosperity for the locals without changing the legacy of Bali.

I love seeing other people leading happy and fulfilling lives. This gives me hope.

Indonesian here, respect for coming with the right visa (investor one)! Too many “digital nomads” abusing their tourist visas this past decade.

Also moved here from the U.S. and love it. I’ve been here for 3 years and don’t see myself ever moving back to the U.S. for any reason. This island it special.

Greetings from West Africa. I did the same . Left Toronto Canada on Dec 2019 and moved to Ivory Coast. Life is amazing here and lots of opportunities. Smart.

It's good for him, i am Indonesian living in Jakarta, but i do go to Bali 5-10 times a year since i also own a couple of restaurants in Bali, but even for us Indonesians, going to Bali is like the best self healing moments, no matter how many times i go to Bali, i never get bored at all.

Actually getting out of the United States to see other countries made me realize how much better the rest of the world really is compared to the richest country (US) It may not be the richest countries, but the quality of life is much healthier and happier imo

I’m 65, my husband is terminally ill, and his $3 million estate will go to his son. I want to spend the rest of my days traveling - will I have enough money

I like how he said “I created a life that I wanted » - he made a point to be centered and near nature as a natural mean to lift depression. Even though he did not state it- he’s is spiritual.

The key is respect for the local culture, be friendly to the people around you. I guarantee you will stay peacefully in Bali

As an Indonesian, Bali welcomes everyone, as long as you respect its local culture and heritage which is considered very sacred as it is the only remaining place in Indonesia which still adheres to the ancestral faith of the Indonesian people.

This is a wonderful story. I feel nothing but pride and love for this man. Glad he's found a beautiful place to live and enjoy all life can offer. Respect

I am sitting here grinning over the fact that he mentioned "Go-Jek", one of the most successful Indonesian digital companies. Thanks for casting him and sharing what his life has been like in Bali. Appreciate the positive messages :)

Earning a 140K USD per year in Bali is like earning a million USD per year in the US.

As it should be. Go where you're being celebrated not tolerated ✈🌎💸

Im from bali. But i have working for 3 years in Turkey because i dont get good job in Bali, I am here to support my 2 daughters study in university in Bali

Wow amazing! You can tell he doesn't have a care in the world. A simple but fruitful life. The most important part is he is surrounded by peace! It's golden

This is by far the most honest opinion about Bali. He looks genuinely happy with life. Spread the love and positivity. God bless you

Now this is what I'm talking about. This is smart and a realistic goal for many people. It may not be with digital marketing but any skill that you can do online and get paid, you should take advantage of the location arbitration.

Wow! I love this interview! So amazing to see how life compares in different countries. Blessings🙏🏽

I'm glad he's found a way to live his best life! Bali sounds great.

This brother is crushing it! We have very similar mindsets. Business and global minded. And living the life he envisioned for himself and not what his parents envisioned for him. Inspiring! 👊🏼

Seeing him grounded and happy, physically, emotionally, and mentally makes me happy af💯great video of someone living their best life✅DON'T LET LIFE PASS YOU BY🙏🏿

I’m tired of living in America I don’t feel valued here at all and there’s no sense of peace here Bali has been on my mind I love how peaceful it looks I really hope to make it out of America 🙏🏾

Absolutely beautiful So proud of you for taking your life seriously and intentionally!!!!! I have desired to go to Bali for years I’m gonna make it happen!!!! At least 2x a year

this lets me know that there is more to live than hustling working & paying bills

You're happiness is all that matters. Glad he found his

I travelled to Indonesia in November 2000. It’s one of my favorite countries. I had the same experience regarding the hospitality of the people. I made friends during that trip that I still have today.

This is beautiful! I love that he’s able to live the life imagined.

Nigerian immigrants to the US are the most economically successful of any recent immigrant group and I am a first generation Indian in the US giving recognition and respect to a wonderful entrepreneurial people. People think we are the most highly educated but it is Nigerians, look it up. Loved this episode and good luck.

I love watching black people abroad and prospering ✨✨✨✨

How amazing well done! Have spend a brief amount of time in Bali as a tourist it is so peaceful, the people are peaceful the ocean I’d magnificent if I were younger and could go back I would move to Bali. Enjoy my friend you are valued no matter where you are! Please keep us updated so I can at the very least live vicariously!❤️

I love Bali. It's like a second home for me. And I love that he's found a place where being a poc is not a negative thing. I'm a poc and I'm hoping one day to retire in Bali.

i love that he is on an investor visa... giving back to the local economy rather than working there and not ...i don't know how to explain it... read about "Kristen Gray" who with her girlfriend were working in bali on a tourist visa... not paying any income taxes to Indonesia... only the US and they wrote an ebook about it.

He’s absolutely right! Good for him, for being transparent & realistic. I love love Bali Indonesia. I stayed there for a few months a few times.Merindukanmu Indonesia 🥲

I am so glad I stumbled upon your channel and happy to connect. Thank you for taking the time to provide insights and share your experience. Relocating to Southeast Asia is on top of my list. Thanks again and chat soon.

Proud of Olumide! He is working hard and benefiting from his hard work. Living a beautiful life.

A rare insight to a Bali digital nomad who actually has something to say and is not just in love with himself holding a selfie stick on a scooter. Refreshing.

Well done to you!! We live in Australia and have been to Bali 6 times, Aussies love Bali, the people, culture, food, nature and Balinese spirit ❤

Aye great piece and very informative. Shout out Make It crew and Olumide for sharing this!!! 💯

I can really relate from 1:00 to 1:35. Feeling valued as a human being is one key to better quality of life.

I’ve lived around the world including 16 years in Asia. I love Bali, but for me the downside of Bali is that it’s extremely busy all time and the areas where you are likely to live are extremely densely populated. A motorcycle is fine but when you have a family and need a car you run into the problem that parking in Bali is a nightmare. I did find the friendliest and most trusting people I have ever met in Bali, but the tourists there can be extremely disrespectful to locals and continuous drunk and I’ll behaved tourists get very annoying after a while. However, if it works for you then that’s great.

I'm a Balinese and It's good to see that he had better times in Bali. The story is inspiring. I also like it he respected the locals. But the phrase "I live better in Bali than I did in the US" is sounds like gentrification to me. I don't know, he probably said he made $140.000/year it means he made 2 billion Rupiah and he can live whatever the way he likes in Bali. On the contrary, most of Balinese people is on minimum wage. I also have a local friend that currently working in the US and he would say that he'd be pretty much like the life he made in the US because you know, the value of the money is significantly different.

Thank you so much for this information and your experience ! Such a inspiration!

I am from Bali, and Thank you Sir for living in Bali and enjoy it. 🙏

Nigerians mahn, we killing it anywhere, making those good decisions on a daily, so proud🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

I feel peace already everytime I walk out of the airplane in Bali’s airport. Never feel the same anywhere else in the world. The Balinese should share their secrets to this peaceful feeling to others around the world.

This was awesome!! I also had the pleasure to visit Bali and loved it!! This is how we're supposed to be and that's blissful!

Inspiring..., enjoy Bali, one of the most peaceful places to live surrounded with good people and beautiful natural scenery.

Hi I'm Indonesian and I'm happy you love Bali. For those thinking of moving/going there, here are some honest reason why you may not want to: - People from countries with stronger currencies drive prices up, rendering the locals a harder time purchasing daily items. - Olumide moved partly because of the nicer non-racist Indonesian. In my experience, racism is still there although to a lesser degree. - The last reason is more of a suggestion. Visit other places, people go to Bali just because a lot others do, but the whole country is literally one huge Bali. Cheers, hope this give you more perspective.

This is amazing! Nigerian living in Canada right now and he is living the dream. Congrats Olumide

Met this guy like 3 years ago. Dudes a legend

Thank you, this is great inspiration. My son and I have moved from Hollywood California where dreams are made to make more dreams come true in SouthAfrica! It’s so exciting!

This video melted my heart. I love seeing our black brothers and sisters thriving for the best. Let’s all remember that all humans matters. Great one young man💕🙏🏽

Bali is beautiful and unbelievably cheap! We were there for our honeymoon. Gotta say though, this idea is great if someone is single or in a relationship without kids. We'd personally struggle to see how we'd move to Bali with our 2 kids. But absolutely love to see that Olumide is living it up there. It's amazing 🙌🏾

I am so grateful for that. It brought tears to my eyes. Bali is where I want to retire. I currently live in a tent with my dog. I have never been able to afford a home so for pretty much my whole adult life I have been either renting a room, or sleeping on the street or living in my car or in a tent. This May I start school for web design so I can become a digital nomad. In two years I want to get into real estate. And then two years later head off to Bali. I've always choice Bali cause it's seems so peaceful and I keep hearing it affordable. And being a black woman from the South it's even better cause it's more accepting. That is my plan and I am going to watch this everyday for motivation. I appreciate u sharing this and keeping people out there like me hopeful. Thank u.

Thank you for the info. Someday I will move to Bali, that's for sure.

Yes I totally understand why he chose to live in Bali🌴 I lived in abroad for 10 years and moved back to Japan now🇯🇵 Life is beautiful. We only love once. Live life to the fullest🌏

This is so spot on! Bali is such a peaceful and hospitable place. The love is felt immediately after you step foot on the soil.

That’s where I’ll be living one day and I’m so serious I been researching on Bali all the time and I just love it

Love this man. We create the life we want. Preach and enjoy the life man.

Way to go Olu!! So happy to see you represent the digital nomad community on this platform!🙌

I live in Bali and it had been the best experience so far in my life. The food , the weather and the people are just a good experience. I moved here from China Hongkong city and I love it

We have the same goals… so far I have a place in Belize, getting a place in Portugal and currently researching a place here in Bali. Love it here!

Very good breakdown brother. Thanks for sharing. I am originally from Mexico, but have lived my whole life in California. I recently just moved to Arizona and bought land here. With no family and friends. I’m truly considering just getting out of the United States and either going back to Mexico (Baja California) or Bali. Lots of things to think about and consider. Your video absolutely helps. Thank you.

Nothing like Happiness and a Peace of Mind and he seems to have Both. Kudos to him. Happy for Him For Sure!!

You run a successful business, in Bali! That’s a perfect combo, and you’re so blessed. Bali is such an amazing place 😍

The people from bali and also from indonesia are so special… i really love this place ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I think its amazing that people seek other options to live their lives. The usa is very expensive to even live in and feel at ease. Working remotely in another location and loving life is really the best thing.

I'm a military brat, and I currently work for the federal government. I enjoy moving around. But I always let people know, living in and visiting a place are two different things.

I’m not going to lie to you. I want to live the digital nomad lifestyle bad. I’m currently at an office job and life seems so uneventful. I don’t even care about the money I just want to flexibility and the experiences

i like watching these kinds of videos, it just brings out the inner adventure of managing your own life and finances while living in foreign country.

Omg!! Just looking up Bali airbnb to stay for 3-9 months. You are an inspiration.

Happiness and Peace is priceless. Glad you finally get to experience that with the move to Bali. Great video.

Olumide great to listen to a happy spirit. I am 74 years on this earth trip. I was born a Sicilian in 1947, I experienced race hate or being called names everywhere growing up in America. Made me have mixed up anger, sadness, and I felt segregated and looked down on. My parents named me Jerome which back then was a name black people used but most white-skinned were john, bill Pete, bob, etc. I finished school headed to Mexico where I was accepted and worked hard hours low pay but happier. Twenty years later I headed to Bali on the advice of a lot of Canadian ex-pats. I been here 32 years of beauty, happier moments than I can describe. People are unique wonderful god family friends and money is last on the list. I went back to America after a half-century, wish I had not it is a cesspool of anger, ego, competition, hatred, and drug problems with third world infrastructure. Sad but made me so happy to get home to Bali. Love to run into to you for a lunch someday my treat although your good financially. I got stories of before they had white bread or hotels and we slept in village banjars traveling all Bali and Indonesia. Pak Jerry Never leave you been blessed to be here.

I really enjoyed this program. His experience and wisdom was straight on great advice!

I REALLY enjoyed watching this, could FEEL your PEACE! ❤️❤️👏👏

I’ve been to Bali and it’s amazing. It’s actually much more expensive than the rest of Indonesia. Indonesia in general is an awesome country to visit.

This is great! Create the life you want for yourself despite what anyone thinks or says. At the end of the day, you have to be happy with your decisions. I’m glad you feel valued now as a person. God is so good!

Love ❤️ LOVE Love this! Congrats!!!

Appreciate you saying this. I had low energy for the 1st 3 months I moved to Bogota. Now I have a social schedule! Gratitude

The purpose of moving to a new country is to make a contribution to that country, in particular its people. If you are doing this then that’s great. If you moved to Bali simply because it’s cheaper then that is not so great.

I absolutely loved Bali. I visited for 2 weeks with my travel group. The people are so accommodating friendly and generous. I'd love to go back.

LOVE this!!!! Bali is my last stop. I plan to retire there. Definitely a destination on my bucket list. I’m able to be there vicariously through you so THANK YOU FOR POSTING!🌴🌞🌴🌞🍍

Even moving to a small town from any big city is almost 50% savings. Also, stress reduces considerably. But again it's how you manage it. Many can be unsuccessful as they don't have a plan.

Congrats! You are thriving and happy! Keep it up!!!!!! Loved hearing this story

I moved to Ecuador 2 years ago and live here comfortably on 1100 a month..I love it here!!!

Love seeing brothers out here in the world travelling and making moves

He is living the exact life I aim to live. Good for him!

This is my dream. I hope to achieve this type of freedom in my job where I can just move to Bali or Thailand and live there

I love the realness in this video. It's so true that you must, must, must take care of yourself and inner life in order to be receptive to connecting with others. We're you able to begin creating a community of friends for yourself? For me, that is the defining aspect of my happy place. Unfortunately, I have not found that here in the US.

Great story and Bali is such a wonder place to travel/live. He’s 100% correct. I learned this first hand after I received my dual citizenship.

My brother you are an inspiration....Very happy for you....Would luv to be able to do this one day...Blessings!

Looking to live the digital nomad life myself. You’re an inspiration ✨

Truly love that he flexes in those silk/satin threads and prioritizes taking care of himself. Go King, go!

So beautiful! LIve your life, and enjoy and do your work. It's a lot less stress.

Happy to see you living your best life. Enjoy! 👏
