It depends on the country.  Some countries will welcome you with open arms, but others will demand that you show proof that you have enough money to be a financial burden to the country.  Other countries might just welcome you with open arms, and expect that you contribute to their economy.  Some countries might not allow you to work, but you might still be able to enjoy living there, without contributing to the economy.

What do you mean 'with open arms'? They let anyone live there? which countries are like that?

For example, I know Australia has policies allowing people to live there without having to demonstrate their financial status, even though it’s quite expensive to live there.  I also know that it’s possible for US citizens to move to China without needing to go through all of the immigration processes.  I know of some countries that expect citizens to contribute to the economy, but don’t necessarily require them to have money.  I’m not really sure which countries do and don’t require their citizens to have money to be able to live there, but I don’t know any countries that would stop people from living there unless they had money.

I don't think you're right about that. I'm sure every country requires you to show how much you make if you want to move thre.
