Residence Permit for a Non-Working American?

Umschalten
I've been looking around a lot for info, but I can't find much related to my exact topic. What do I need to get a residence permit if I'm an American in Germany who doesn't want to work in Germany?

I saved up a lot of money before I came here (especially considering how cheap Berlin is) and I am self-employed with my company based out of the United States. I simply want to live in Germany for the culture-- is that hard to explain to an office without sounding suspicious?

So, I guess I'm just basically asking what I need to show them to get a residence permit here? I'm guessing something like:

* passport
* photos
* address registration

and then the following i'm unsure of:

* proof of insurance?
* proof of income or savings?

Any help on this topic would be very much appreciated. I've only been here for a few weeks, so I have plenty of time left on my initial visitor visa, but I've been told by multiple people that it's best to get on this ASAP.
