eligibility for residency?

heya! so like many people on the subreddit, I am interested in moving to Finland. I don't want to get my hopes up any more than they are so my first step is to figure out if it's even possible for me.

I am self-employed as a streamer and content creator making an average of $3k/month and I will be selling my fully owned house in the US before moving so I will also have a few hundred thousand from that. I will be able to afford living in Finland without finding work or using any government resources, so based on this alone, would Finland allow me to get a residency visa?

I've looking into it a lot already and I've seen some conflicting information. Some posts saying I would not be able to get a visa unless my self-employment requires me to be in Finland for some reason or family/education/relationship that kinda thing. But I've also seen that it's really more about whether you can support yourself for the duration of your stay. So just based on me wanting to move there and having the money to do so, is it likely I would be accepted?

I have written an email to a Finnish immigration lawyer but I have no idea how long it would take them to get back to me or if they even will respond.

Please be nice, I am only asking a question. I rarely post because people can be really hurtful on here. Thank you.

I have heard that Estonia has some decent options for digital nomads, you might want to check it out. Finland is just a 2,5 hour ferry ride away from Tallinn!
