Thailand's Cheap Secret: Living on a Real Budget in Hua Hin

[@jcl2392]

you didn't tell us how much you spent, that was the whole idea of watching your video

[@mamagne800]

I was thinking the same thing. I put an average of around 100 bath a meal and I came to around 9000 bath for the month which is $336 CND for me. I round it up to $400 for a couple of beers and desert. This is approximated of course. Let say $400 dollars for rent it comes to a total of $800 for rent/food. Depending on how much your monthly revenue is, the rest is yours for visa, Insurance, dating, clothing, transport, hobbies etc...which I considered around $500CND for a approx estimated total of $1300 a month minimum to have at least some kind of life. I would say with $1500 CND ($1100 UD) you are fine. Keep in mind I've never been there so I'm kind of guessing right now. If you have been there, tell me if I'm really off please.

Great video. Really great to see what a regular day is like for someone versus just a focus on certain items like condos, food, beaches etc. For someone thinking about spending extended time it is great to see what day to day life looks like

LEGEND FREDDY LOVE YOUR WORK CHEERS GAZZA AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺

There are several banks where you don't pay the ATM fees on withdrawals.

[@justFreddieThailand]

I have a Bangkok card so I don’t pay any ATM charges anyway because I live in Thailand it’s only if you go out of your area if you have a tight bank card that many items as far as I know you paid, but I’d love to know where you get your free charge from

[@jampasurprenant1794]

I find you very funny and I like it and to keep up the good work. Keep it coming.

They have English movies with Thai subtitles at the Bluport mall 👍

[@Roof_Pizza]

Last I was there (pre-COVID) The latest Hollywood movie was dubbed into Thai with no English subtitles.

[@zannybc]

@@Roof_Pizza we just watched The Beekeeper yesterday in English with Thai subtitles. There is also new Aquaman and new Wonka movie. Maybe they only have English movies when it's tourist season

[@badbadgerretiredinthailand]

Freddie, liking the motorcycle t-shirt, and you never told us the total 😮

[@justFreddieThailand]

I’m pleased you liked it badger. I think the massive bit of a cock up with my editing so definitely put it in there. Good job you noticed. Thanks anyway appreciate total spend for the month was62000baht

[@badbadgerretiredinthailand]

@@justFreddieThailand can always do a short to update, wow 62k a month, we run on 30k, that's just living and utilities

[@justFreddieThailand]

I do have a private income for my business, but I didn’t wanna mix, make it easy for people to understand

[@badbadgerretiredinthailand]

ive got a private pension which ive had for the last 9 years, get my state pension in 2 years@@justFreddieThailand

[@justFreddieThailand]

My state pension is not a lot, but I get about £800 a month. The rest is all private

[@Paul_G_Eats]

Great video Freddie

[@dorkmen251]

.....totals at the end for the week and the month???

[@justFreddieThailand]

The cost of each part of the video was converted in currency exchange. Total of the month was the end of the video thank you. Hope you enjoyed it.

[@scottrichmond3256]

@@justFreddieThailand I waited to the end also and did not hear anything mentioned nor was there anything posted on the screen. I'm still in the dark

[@bakbak35]

Exactly nothing at end of vlog extremely poor

[@markholland6657]

the razors are cheaper than UK mate! lol can almost double those prices for the shaving foam and razors these days!!

[@Paula-c3i]

🙋🏻‍♀️Withdraw money from a bank and there are less fees per transaction😊

[@geofferyrobertson6608]

you can get de-caf at 7/11 and big c .. 2 places I know of

[@stuford]

Thanks but you didnt say the totals!

[@keithprinn720]

I have a mo and beard no problem but starbucks having coffee and apply pie with cream really? maybe once a month to get that western fix.

[@justFreddieThailand]

Yes my western fix too. I love it. I love apple pie my God I do you have a restaurant that sells mash and sausage which is my all-time favourite

[@mike-oh8if]

My understanding and I could be wrong is to avoid the malls. Eat street food in the street

[@samghising2170]

waited till the end and you didn't say the cost, that's not nice, that's deceiving , I aent coming back , and no thumbs up

[@geofferyrobertson6608]

you only get charged if your outside of your banks area , its best when opening a bank account ask where the border lines are . like in Pattaya if you go to bang chang it will cost you but in the zone its free

[@colinbailey5273]

ll wat happened to cost doooooo

[@roberthornbrook8374]

Wow it’s £ here I take my electric razor lol 😂

[@davidthailand2159]

There is 8 million coffee shops brother in thailand ,star buck s is a shit hole 😮

[@aaronheer6141]

mate thanks for the honesty... the place isnt as cheap as it may seen.. but u showed the real cost... respect

[@justFreddieThailand]

Thanks mate, much appreciated Toy. She’s a bloody expensive here. I’ve resorted to shaving with electric razor rather than by the rises which cost an arm in the leg. I’m not sure money but I don’t like mine over the house anyway mate I really appreciate you put your feedback and I hope to see you again. Much appreciated thumbs up

[@mixalis6168]

@@justFreddieThailand Well leave then !!!!

[@mixalis6168]

Thanks Man, really appreciate a good one. I was like feedback you’re a star

[@billybear707]

[@Hmmm313]

No decaf??? Wtf

[@justFreddieThailand]

Yes 😂😂😂

[@mixalis6168]

Yea can buy decaf !! you can get normal coffee @!!

[@TheGandorX]

Decaf coffee is like alcohol free beer, not worth blasting my stomach with.

[@EamonnHogan-eu3qc]

Anyone know if there's a good 2nd aka used clothing store in Hua hin?? Also, best and cheapest place to get say 4 to 10 passport photos, as visa extensions need 2 photos each time

[@GeFarr]

Starbucks sucks in Thailand

[@justFreddieThailand]

Ok

[@GeFarr]

@@justFreddieThailand I find that the 45 baht 7 11 iced coffees are better. Amazon's better to but not as cheap as 7 11....peace out

[@mixalis6168]

What are you on about, coffee is the same, ajaajajajajajajajajaaj

[@justFreddieThailand]

If you book a flight at mid night Tuesday or Wednesday is the time you get the best price 🙏🏻✈️👍
