If you work for European countries you're usually entitled for retirement money so you don't have to save a huge amount (although the more the better obviously). I'm a programmer and I've stayed in many countries and travelled even more as some kind of a digital nomad. I'm about to move to spain because it's just an awesome county with very nice people. Even though US companies are the top paying one, I'd never work for one as long as I can't do it 100% remotely from Europe. I like travelling to the US a lot but I'm also very happy when I'm back in Europe.
