Income Stacker

Work out what combination actually gets you there.

Your planStep 1Step 2Step 3WHAT THIS ASSUMES

Why this exists

A geo-flexible life is rarely funded by one salary. It is usually a remote contract plus seasonal work, or part-time income plus a lower cost of living somewhere else — and the maths on whether that adds up is genuinely hard to do in your head.

So the decision gets made on vibes, and people either take a leap they cannot sustain or stay put in a job they have outgrown because the alternative was never actually costed.

How it works

1

Start from the target

What you need to earn, over what horizon, and how many hours a week you are willing to give it.

2

Model the combinations

Remote, seasonal, work exchange and freelance income are combined into realistic stacks rather than one idealised path.

3

Check it against your skills

Suggestions are grounded in what you can actually do now, with a note where a stack would require something you would need to learn first.

What you get

  • Combinations that reach your target, with the maths shown
  • Realistic rates and hours rather than best-case numbers
  • What each stack would require you to learn or arrange
  • A view you can adjust as your situation changes

Common questions

Are the rates realistic?+

They are estimates, and you should sanity-check them against what you know of your own market. The tool is most useful for comparing the shape of different combinations rather than for predicting an exact figure.

Is this financial advice?+

No. It is a planning aid. It does not know your obligations, tax position or risk tolerance, and none of those are small details when you are changing how you earn.

Does it account for tax?+

Not in detail, because tax for geo-flexible work depends on residency, citizenship and treaties in ways a general model cannot resolve. Treat outputs as gross and take proper advice for your situation.

What if I only want one job?+

Then this is not the tool you need — use the job search and the fit check. Income Stacker is for people deliberately combining sources.
