Very nice business idea i remember as a kids in asia swimming is alway fun we jump in river or lake cause no swimming pool close by 😊👌

What a fun place for the local kids. It has a happy vibe and looks great ! 💕🌷

I enjoyed this video very much. Watching children laughing and playing, nothing but joy. Thank you.

Thanks for watching!

[@StreetMate]

That's lovely water park especially for parents with their little ones

[@graemeaylward8313]

What a fantastic idea to build a mini water park for the kids in the local area. I am sure that even those earning 300baht a day could afford 80baht a week for their children to come here. I like the way your mind works Ryan, always looking ahead. As you say retirement is not just about lounging about all day doing nothing it is about living and enjoying life while you still can, whatever that might be! Little ventures like this also help to intefrate you with the locals. God bless you all, and keep thinking 🙂❤🙏

[@edwardpearce9668]

I think this peng nitnoi. We visit some place similar, 50 baht swimming, 30 bht togs. Shop for kanom and drinks icecreams etc and usual hotdogs and samtams. Not swimming dont pay entrance fee. B4 covid swimming was only 30 bht. Her market is village kids and teenagers and during holidays it should be so full the water not safe to get in lol. To put into perspective the large water slide park with wave pool and beacn also band stage (Dino Park) in Khon kaen is only 200 bht, b4 and after covid. These places are all struggling at the moment.

[@dr.who2]

Very interesting video the place looks fun 😀 and not expensive at all a n d your right you dont need a lot of money to have fun indeed ty have fun

[@nigelmullen9546]

Seen a couple of the little swimming pool places pop up east of Korat recently. Went to one last Aug and wife tells me another one has recently opened as well, I think they are a great idea.

[@lifeinruralthailand]

I think the pools are much cheaper to build these days :)

[@nigelmullen9546]

I asked the wife at the time to ask how much, It was a good size pool and I think all in, pool, filtration, tiling and non slip around it and a big slide it was c1 million baht.

[@strataproplumbing8790]

Lovely ad informative. There is a place almost exactly like this in Ayutthaya owned by a Swedish and Thai. Couple. It gets busy with locals. It’s a retirement or escape for the husband who was tired of traveling back to Sweden for work. Great idea.

[@magee1278]

Thank you Ryan, that was so much fun to watch. The kids were having fun and the whole place is amazing! The owner definitely made her dream come true. I'm sure this will be fun times for you, Damo and the kids too!!! Enjoy! 😃💖💫🙏💦☀🌡

[@anthonyjames4648]

Wow what an amazing place!

[@HairyPixels]

They made one of these where I live in Chiang Mai also. Seems very popular with the kids but they're not fit for adults. Very good idea and I'm surprised they're just doing this considering how hot it is here. We've had these in America for decades even though they're only useful for a few months in summer.

[@mariannescalise6658]

Swimming pools are a great place for children. Spent many summer in our pool and at friends pools. . Children must learn the buddy system. Call attention if a buddy in the pool is in peril. Pools are fun and good exercise Kudos

[@WushuTaz]

I just realized that I'm using too much electricity lol. They are able to maintain the home, family and everything (pumps, lights etc.) for the pool for $292. My town house in Koh Samui cost me about this much for the month of April for only 2 people! 😂 Love seeing this type of video Ryan. I really do see a lot of Thais extending or converting parts of their home to run a little business.

Get where your coming from, wife's friends grow spring onions got big order and because when wife was younger picked spring onions so can do fast, they asked if she could help.

Wife runs a noodles restaurant, got recipe unique to the area from lady who has restaurant at the back of her daughter's boyfriend's parents house, cooks others meals to. Have bought land and building house and resort on it and restaurant be there to. Also have land going to make for fishing and growing vegetables and fruits and keeping chickens etc. Just taking so long was ment to be finished end of last year, hopefully will make virtually self sufficient when all eventually comes together

[@thanyapatrick9988]

Really interesting video. It’s a frightening thought to set up something in the middle of no where. Your positivity makes things possible. I agree it difficult to sit and do nothing when you retire and there is a need to think of novel way. I do think the negativity of some Thais sometimes get in the way. My wife’s family always speak bad about her when she tries to do something positive. They knocked her when she started selling second hand clothes but didn’t recognise that her profits fed them. Then when see came to the uk to work for 10 years they said I was going to sell her! I love to hear and see your views on rural life.

[@ThailandTom]

Not weird at all man! I am exactly the same. We got our land and when we start building our house, our plans are to add some other elements as well so we are self sufficient as far as possible. And something my wife like to do and she can do even without me. But mainly, the covid lockdowns really showed us that you have to plan ahead properly and be as off grid as possible and not be dependent on anyone else, especially government.

Great flog again, I enjoyed it. Yes.. hope/wish for the best, prepare for the worse. And for all expats: never invest more then you are able to walk away from. I used to write "willing and able"... The willing obviously will be difficult and painful if you invested a lot, like Rayan and Damo. But this is Thailand and anything can happen. Visa's might not be extended or cancelled for some strange reason... Crazy things do happen here, and you might get caught up in something crazy... So it might be needed to leave everything behind. Hope for the best, prepare for the worse.👍👍🙏☮️

The Thai people are very good when it comes to brain storming ideas and ways to earn a living. They have too be that way. There's no center link or social security payments over there. I'm always impressed at how they manage to find ways to earn a living. Maybe you never open the cafe as a way to top up the income but it's there as an option

[@Brit-Pino]

Ryan, you're absolutly correct!! I am a Brit (Wakefield) in Mindanao Philippines. I am very much like you, a planner. We didn't buy the place on the beach with a pool instead we bought a small mango farm. we also have a place in the city with a school supply store and snack shop, and we built these up as and when we could afford to from working overseas. And now thankfully we have enough to sustain a simple but enjoyable life. And like you if we want to go the pool we go the local resort now and again, and this pays on in to the local economy, its like a money go round, as the pool owners may be buying my mango/chicken or other produce. I can relate to your mini rant also you see far too many plastic millionaires ( not so much in myside of Mindanao) burning through non existent cash or walking ghosts as we call them loaded on cheap booze all day long. that lifestyle ain't going to end well at all. Ok it's fine for a vacation but no way is it a way to live a life. So your rant fully hit a true chord with me. Take it easy always guys!

[@martinbonner2585]

Good idea but can't see how they can make money, must cost at least a million baht to build. With maintenance costs and kids being at school, once it cools down and starts getting dark earlier and the novelty wears off. Maybe the idea she had of having night time parties there could be the way to go. Wish them the best of luck, also find if makes money other Thais tend to copy, had internet cafe on side of house where kids and adults came to play games, eventually other people copied the idea making it unviable to keep going
