What visa are you getting? I know the STV visa is 9 months but you are required to leave. I truly want to live in thailand for at least a few years but there are no visas that last that long and don't have strict requirements. I'd like to move around but having an education visa requires you to go to class in one city.

My car is paid for and l have a 1 bedroom apartment, thats not in the slums. Don't eat out much and l have a few women who spend a little time with me every month. I barely drink any alcohol and l will attend live events that I like. If I can spend less than $1500 in the USA, should easily be able to live off that amount or less in Thailand.

@Quest7773 жыл бұрын
I'm sure $1000 per month will serve you well but it's also true (and you do mention it) that one needs to live a sensible life also. For my part, I lived in Spain for 3.5 years with about €1500 each month. That's fine but it did spiral quickly out of control at times. And you have to take into account non-daily expenses. Insurance. Health. Things going wrong. Stuff you have to buy. Buffer. Visa runs. If you DO plan on living on $1000 per month in Thailand then make very sure that you've got the basics covered and make sure that you've got a buffer that you don't touch at all unless you really need it one day. If something happens and/or you suddenly need a good chunk of cash and you don't have it then you can find yourself in real trouble very fast. Best of luck to all adventurers out there.
@RykerFreegeld3 жыл бұрын
Good points. As someone who has worked as an ex-pat full-time freelancer for 13 years now, you can definitely make an average of 1K per month if you stay focused, but the problem with Thailand is not just the rent and living expenses; it's the damn VISA. If you're on an ED visa, you're gonna spend about 50K baht per year. Another potential dealbreaker for many (myself included) is the fact that it seems you now need insurance just to get an extension (you need to extend your ED visa every three months even if you make a 1-year deal with a school), frequent policy changes and new restrictions notwithstanding. Would be nice if someone has found a solution to this for Chiangmai (or other areas). Thai laws literally change on a weekly basis and are often confusing and disjointed. Basically, if you're from a western country, probably not a good idea to set your mind on staying there for the next 20 years, unless you've found some kind of visa deal I haven't heard of (unlikely), or are willing to spend 30K USD on the Thail Elite visa (20 years) or 18K for 5 years (going up to 20K next year). Then of course there's marriage, but that comes with it's own risks I guess. Basically, China is gaining a stronger and stronger foothold in the Thai gov, and they clearly DO NOT want westerner's there anymore. So unless you have a minimum of 16K to stay there for 5 years, or are married, visa is going to be a headache. Btw, even the O-type (retirement) visa has just become a LOT more restrictive and many retirees are leaving for the Phillipines due to the new financial and insurance restrictions. Good luck guys.

Good to see you back Brett! I think you're absolutely right. Some people want to bubblewrap themselves and try to think of every possible disaster that could befall them (thought the 3 motorbikes at once never crossed my mind! 🤣). But the end result of all that over thinking is paralysis; they end up doing nothing. I moved here July 2019, and I've not looked back. I sold or donated all my stuff and came here with three suitcases and a backpack at 57 yo. Divorce was my motivator for the changer of pace. I read a couple of comments about visas, and it might be good for you to revisit that issue some time. It is a pretty fluid situation on that front here in Thailand. I'm on a retirement visa, and so far so good. Cheers!

I know how you are speculating why others don't go for it, but you need to consider how much it costs to get started, too. Flights, visas, deposits for housing, etc. are limiting factors, too. And I'm sure that if you can do it on $1k per month, I can too. The fact that many of us would willingly leave tomorrow if not for debt, leases, car payments, insurances, storage and having an extra $5k-$7k to get it going. Essentially it is all about planning properly and making your actions count- getting all of your ducks in a row and keeping them there. Once you take the leap you'll see it's no big deal and worth every moment if you listen to those out there pointing the way. Thanks Brett. We all can and do learn a lot from this channel.

With that, my question: While the ability to make some supplemental income interests me... ... I'm also interested in how I might simply be useful -- to CONTRIBUTE to the community in ways other than just being another drop in the bucket for the tourist economy. Especially as so many Thai people are struggling to get back on their feet due to the Covid pandemic. I've got some professional skills (land & resource conservation, document composition & editing, etc.) and don't mind getting my hands dirty in construction, maintenance, etc. Among other roles, I was a wildland firefighter for 34 seasons.

Bloody isolated myself for 3 weeks pretty much for this 😂😂 I've had two sets of flights cancelled but was determined to work around it. I guess if you want something enough,......... Right? Flying out on Monday morning. Beer offer still stands after ASQ. Your videos have been really enjoyable and informative. Take it easy 😊👍🏼

@@JoeGator23 Thanks m8 😊 Currently downtown Bang Na, BKK on 2nd day of quarantine. Thought I'd set up a channel for my experiences etc. And if ever you do another "how to" process on getting here from UK and all it intails then give me a shout. I'd be happy to share my knowledge on it. 👍🏼

Great video as usual. Why did you personally choose Thailand and not some other foriegn destination? And why should we consider Thailand? Thank in advance.

My fear is losing clients, I got a few thousand per month from web dev freelancing and 100K savings & investments but don't know if it's worth going for long stay, only went Chiang Mai 6 months before. Also I'd have to work 5pm to 10pm to align with UK clients, you think that's alright? I'm also 24 so thinking about their buying a flat or doing this

If you had £100,000 there are investment trusts paying 6%. Now you're taking a chance. The world's on its arse, and it could get worse. They might not be able to keep paying the dividends. But then again, there's a very good chance they can. Exchange rates could move against you. But they're more likely to help you. £6,000 a year is 20,000 baht a month. That would take all the pressure off, because 6,000 total housing costs, 400 baht a day for food, and a gym membership, is there without doing any work at all. I lived on £324 for six weeks no problem. But I found that I can't relax!

$1,000 is $1500 anywhere else, because you're saving $500 on your housing costs. If you're a heavy consumer of cafe and restaurant services your $1,000 is at least $2,000, because things like coffee and meals are so much cheaper. But, on the other hand, if you absolutely have to eat Frosties, Marmite and baked beans all day, and wash it down with Newcastle Brown Ale, you'll get hit quite badly in TescoLotus with the import duties.

How to get the least expensive health insurance? The consulate states expats living there must have health care coverage. Pacific Prime and Cross are less until elderly years (after 75) then takes closer to 1000.

What does it cost for a night of going out drinking for 3-4 hours with friends? I may want to do that more than once a week.

I’m moving to Thailand next year to teach. Would love to work online, but I have no idea where/how to start to even get that one client - it’s rocket science for me 😫
