Buddy of mine lives in Vietnam. His $2300 per month social security check is more than enough to live on over there. You can eat well each day for about $15 and his rent runs him $395 per month for a two bed / two bath condo there. Gas is $.69 per gallon.

[@JooseTheNomad]

Yeah that's plenty in Da Nang!

[@phanhuyduc2395]

Most Vietnamese family with 2 kids in can live pretty well with $1500 monthly at the moment. So if your friend lives alone he is all set here ( as long as he do not set foot in any luxury place lol)

[@TylerMac-x4z]

Wow, I spend $7,500 per month as a single male in Santa Barbara California. Just gas, food, gym and rent. No drinking or going out. Contemplating quitting this nonsense

Basecamp for what exactly

[@tailwind12]

folks good video. cool guy. LISTEN: i worked ex pat for 15yrs. retired ex pat for 4 yrs. i lived for years in cambodia and thailand. do NOT buy into any video that says you can live there (asia) for $1000 per month. PI, thailand or where ever. yes, IF you want to live a limited lifestyle and "squeeze" by each month. OK- IF you are there for 3 months and limit you activity's..eat only local food, bare bone room (maybe no AC) OR if you rent a condo you have to keep the AC off for 80% of the time to make "your" 1K budget work. go out a few times a month. not ever or every other month. IF you are there for long term you will want a life. yes it is 50, 60% less that the US but you still have expences. a signfican part is where you live. i am not as familar with vietnam as i am with thailand. in thailand you want bangkok? that is higher. chang mai (beautiful) much lower. korat (thai city) ever much much lower. i did not even watch the complete video here. very few speak of medical insurance in there "$1000" to live on video. you will need that. IF it is for 3 months you can get a travel policy. IF you are really Ex pat you need a Expat policy (12months+). mine is very, very good..covers everywhere but the US and is about $250 per month. you want to get injured and lay in thai government hospital with a 75yoa thai doctor that does not speak one word of english treating you?. those hospitals are suppose to be for thai's only and you still will get a bill OR Bumrungrad in Bangkok. world class, western trained doctors with your insurance. vietnam might be less expensive. from what i hear they do not offer a retirement visa yet. i would bet on for one person: $1700--$1800 for a decent, good lifestyle. yes can go lower or higher (see aboe). folks, this could be a good guy here. i now saw a video for cambodia going down to $500 per month. most of it is click bait. the person watching see's such a low number, clicks the video..producer makes $ and numbers advertising something that, for the most part, is not sustainable or truth.. enjoy.

here is a insight of a local Vietnamese student, I don't really know what foreigners would have to go through but as student insurance I have to pay around 50$ or less, and a pretty normal life(no hanging out, fancy restaurant,....) about 300$ so I think 1000$ is enough, again I don't know what the number will be for foreigners

The reason that your sim card stoppped working after 2 weeks is because you bought in the airport, which means it is under the name of the previous owner (they take your passport just to make you think they are making it under your name), so after a while the sim is blocked. You need to buy a sim card in an official store of Viettel or Vinaphone on city center.

Hey Joose, Great video. We just spent 5 weeks in Vietnam (Hanoi and Phu Quoc). I heard Da Nang is really cool and from what you are showing it looks great. We had the same issue with the same, if you buy at the airport they sort of scam you and give you already used sim card for 10 dollars. At Vittel the official service provider 1 month is 125.000 Dong more or less. Highly recommend Phu Quoc. Hanoi is just too much with the air pollution and double price compare to Da Nang 800 dollars for an airbnb in the city and traffic is hectic in my view. But as you said the food is awesome in Vietnam. Greetings from Phuket and keep up the great work!

I got fined 2 times already here in Phuket, but the police is here like to take pocket fines so I could negotiate to half price to 500 baht instead of 1000.

its been awful since march there. i left last month. friends tell me its a very big problem atm if youre not a smoker and like to be active

[@ReigoVilbiks]

@@ktowniecity7269 its a burning smoke or just vehicle fumes?

Hi Juice, just wondering where are you from? My guess is Netherlands??

Why dont you show the cons too! Like loud karaoke all night, noise from building construction, pollution.. dont make it crowded 🙏😝

Nah, let them all go to Danang now. It aint what it was pre pandemic. It went back to being chill from 2021-23. This year I noticed how busy it got by just looking at all my previous photos and seeing so many more Indian and Russian tourists. There wasnt one Indian restaurant in DN a few years ago and now they are everywhere!

[@fs5775]

the cons are also all the douchey digital nomads making vids about Danang being $1000 a month. Seriously, how many vids can you all make on the very same topic??

Kiitos näistä Da nang videoista. Tuli käytyä tuolla 2019 mutta nää videot sai miettimään uudestaan tutustumista. Silloin tuntui että koko ranta oli vielä rakennustyömaata niin jäi vähän huono viba paikasta. Ehkä nyt on valmista 🙂 Tosiaan jos tonnilla kuussa elää suomessakin minimimenoilla (ainakin itse onnistun tässä) ihan hyvin, niin tuolla samalla rahalla se elintaso on sitten ihan jotain muuta aka. Stratosfäärissä :D Suomessa jos söisi jokaisen aterian ulkona niin siinä voi jokainen laskea kuinka paljon kuussa se tekisi pelkästään ruokaan. Tuolla se mahtuu tuohon tonnin budjettiin majoituksineen kaikkineen ihan todella helposti, jää jopa vähän frugaalimmalla elämänmenolla säästöönkin. Näin aika monen reissun perusteella Vietnamin hinnat on n. ⅔ Thaimaan hinnoista, toki riippuu monesta tekijästä.

I stayed in Da Nang for 1 month after watching your previous video :) Great place, good to see that you have some nice weather now, as it was +20-25 and raining when I went (January). I think it's a great place for digital nomads, up to 3 months on tourist visa is perfect
