If your house Is paid off and you live on your own with no attachments, 800$ a month Is more than enough, bills Inclusive.

Once your house Is fully paid, your financial worries are over.
Living expenses and bills are easily paid for. In fact, you could live comfortably on 800$ a month.

I am seeing an absolutely ridiculous amount of people quoting 2-4 thousand dollars just to exist. You guys should cut back on some stuff. I live on less than a thousand a month. Anything over 100k a year and I'm confused as to what the people giving it to me hope for me to accomplish.

Agree.
I couldn't spend that amount dining at the finest restaurants each day.

In my country 500$ per month is decent amount

It really depends on the country. If you earn as a freelancer online, it is better to leave in a cheap country and earn USD. I lived in Turkey for a while and the exchange rate of the Turkish lira fell several times, so it was enough to earn about 700$ per month there for a comfortable life. Compared to the US it's nothing. You can check the current TRY price on this [link redacted] btw.

Check the poverty line figure for your area, then assess your personal finances, when at least %33 of your income is disposable I'd choose that as my figure, so its dynamic. However the more the better.

33% sounds like a dream xD
You're absolutely right, though. A figure will be based heavily on location. It's entirely dependent on cost of living, and whether that includes paying for rent/mortgage/cars etc. Everyone has different needs.
For myself personally, I would *like* to be earning between £1500-£2000 per month, because I have high living costs. I could survive on less, but it would be survival and not "living". The ability to put a sum of money (min $100 or equivalent) into savings each month, would be my personal benchmark. Again, this depends heavily on location and lifestyle.
