A Guide to Business in Bangkok Thailand 🇹🇭

I moved away from the UK at a young age and found a better life in Thailand!
Life in Thailand can be simple.. live the life you want and not what you think you're expected to live.
Young family trying to make it work in Thailand. It's not an easy task... We will share the challenges... the up's and down's...
If you have any questions I'm probably not the best person to give you solid advice but I will answer to the best of my knowledge and anything I share i've normally heard from a thai or a well established foreigner so isn't always 100% correct.

Americans can fully own businesses in Thailand (my brother does) but you still must hire a minimum amount of Thai employees.

[@lifeinisan]

Yeah I have heard of that, I just didnt want to talk on that as I don't know a lot about it and I think my US audience is very small could be wrong though. Thanks for mentioning ill pin this comment

[@HairyPixels]

@@lifeinisan yeah it's called the "Amity Treaty". Always worth tossing that out. Still can't buy land though, even through the business.

[@sofiaxavier8241]

Is this exclusive for Americans?

[@HairyPixels]

@@sofiaxavier8241yes

[@Ty_Thailand]

​@@HairyPixelscan't even buy land through the Thai business?

This is an awesome video. I want more vids regarding doing business in Thailand. I am a bit new to the channel, so maybe I missed it from a previous video. But do you mind sharing what you're business is in Thailand?

I use to take the BTS 30 minutes from Onnut to Ari each day to teach I'd rather do that over sitting In BKK traffic any day

[@lifeinisan]

Yeah traffic can be rough, I don't spend to much time here so happy with the bts for the short period 👍

[@teammewbourn1827]

What is your business? what does it do?

[@callofduty6661]

He out sources good paying UK jobs to lowly paid Thai workers. How could any employer in the UK compete with his lower cost.

[@donjordan8174]

Whenever I say I live in Thailand….oh you hangout the beach and bars everyday… we’ll up in Isaan there ain’t no beaches …. Maybe some bitches….

[@lifeinisan]

Yeah I guess its normal, Drinking, Islands and ladyboys if you mention thailand lol

[@kohtime]

7:10 Jesus drew that birayani looked alive!

[@lifeinisan]

It tasted good, looked a little interesting on the inside though 😂

[@TIXIL]

Can you live in your office ?

[@okrim-thailand]

You have a Dispensary ? Don´t tell me for that one 🤔

[@lifeinisan]

I did own one sold it in December

[@peterelliott6780]

What exactly is the real Thailand😮

[@lifeinisan]

I wonder that myself, I think my views maybe changed over time but there isn't a real Thailand. Thailand is just Thailand I'd say there's more traditional places though

[@lenko2607]

You need to chill on the intro adlay

[@bravefart1000]

Was interested in the vlog until you hopped on the scooter and started saying that you would not be on a bike but seeing as it is only a short distance you though what the heck , but to do so without a helmet is totally irresponsible and showing no concern not only for your own wellbeing and stupid because I imagine you probably would not have insurance to cover costly bills from the hospital but also for your families future if you were incapacitated for a long time,brain dead or even died. Watched a lot of your videos and admired you for having the mindset to make a future for yourself and the drive to succeed.

[@lifeinisan]

Appreciate you watching that far, its not exactly a hot topic for a lot of my viewers. Sorry I annoyed yourself. As for insurance I have both health insurance and life insurance at a high level as I understand some of the big dangers with living here. I also know that on the rare occasion you get offered a very bad quality helmet its not going to do much either (still better than none though) it is something ive got to work on as im a new dad and sometimes don't think everything through enough im not perfect. Thanks for the comment and I hope this doesn't put you off anything future content. Take care

[@BrandonJHunt]

I would imagine you're a joy to live with!
