Excellent professional Video. Been there several times and you taught me new sights and tricks. Thanks

Bangkok is fine for a holiday. Retire to the coast or better still proper retire to rural Thailand. That's proper retirement

[jgalvez]

Great video. Thank you for the comprehensive insight into your beautiful country.

Not sure I would want to live there long term, but a few months out of the year to escape winter in other parts of the world would be perfect.

I just wanted to add, that the best taxi´s in Thailand is the one that says taximeter on the roof.

I love Thailand because I felt so relaxed and at home. It was easy to go native. I loved learning about their history, culture and society.

Thank you for this updated video on retiring to Thailand. 👌

Thailand is great for expats and foreigners. I´ve been there many times, also living there for a short time.(in Bangkok)
I loved it as I was there as an insider since I used to married there. Just a few added details about Thailand, a farang is a white person not a foreigner. And if you buy house in Thailand you need to rent the land it´s on, meaning that the owner of the land can take it back (you loose your house). So be careful of this

Don't be shy to bargain a price but don't be a bargain at a ridiculous price way low than half of the price. Just glance over for what is posted in the area to know that you are paying at a regular price. There are so many vendors to choose from. A warning is to avoid criticizing any Royals and staying away from Thai politics and periods. Bangkok is not my choice unless you are craving nightlight excitement and people.

nice summary, pretty superficial, but well done for a first impression. good work! but u use "as well" far too often mate ;-)

[t.nelson]

Another great video for me to like and save.

[curtneilson]

i heard 260$ for a full time who lives elsewhere. maybe that was the part at the end that says farang will NEVER be totally accepted kinda ruined all the good stuff before that; maybe it's already understood, , , , but the way that you said it sounded weird, like a warning or chasing us away

At one time, I was focused on making Thailand my retirement destination, but in recent years, I’ve heard about how many Thais treat foreigners as ATMs. I’ve heard about abuse from immigration and the police. Laws have been enacted which make life difficult and expensive and sometimes impossible for expat retirees. Foreigners are taken advantage of everyday in Thailand and you are spot-on about the Farang situation. I’m looking elsewhere. I don’t think I’ll ever have the pleasure to enjoy Thailand. 🇹🇭

Too hot and too noisy to retire in bkk which is a great city to visit once a year though!!

[tokyospontaneousmeetup]

Super enlightening! So very well researched and thought out. I learnt loads; thank you very much! The only thing that baffles me is how few "likes" you've received! C'mon people - show your appreciation - click that "like" button

[rhizomorph-music]

May I give you a quick English tip? In English you don't say "twice less, " you say "half." Also, you shouldn't say "fully-equipted"... you should say "fully-equipped." Hope that helps.

This couple needs to live in a place and then give some advice.

Thailand isn't inexpensive any longer. You can still find some good home rental deals, electric prices are lower as are internet/WiFi. If you are of retirement age you have to put approximately $25, 000 USD in a Thai bank and even though you do this and get your visa, you are still required to do a 90 day report at immigration. A pain in the ass. Beer and alcohol is double the price of the states, so is cheese, salami's, wine and so on...I speak Thai pretty good (Thais think I speak it very well) so I do well in local stores and markets and pay less than a tourist. One of the biggest misconception is that Thais are laid back and loving people. Get on your motorbike or in your car and you will experience some of the rudest and violent people in the world. Don't get me wrong, there are many wonderful Thai people. I'm in Phuket for six years, lived in Bangkok and Jomtien Beach. I have over 20 years of living in Thailand and first came here over 30 years ago. I know this country and Thai people very well.

Too hot and humid place to live. Only stay there if you have no other better option.
