I'm planning to retire in 4 years and I have been watching videos for about a year. I've also been to these places several times in my youth. I have really narrowed my pick down to Thailand and the Phillipines. My heart is with the Philippines, but Thailand really checks all the boxes. Cost, Healthcare, food, housing, infrastructure, shopping. I also want to travel and having a condo where I could just pack a bag, walk to the train and be at the airport in no time is so attractive. Bangkok really makes it hard to pick with my heart.

Thailand ticked all the boxes for me too.. mainly for the infrastructure and pure 24/7 connivence that you get here in Bangkok. Im about a 5min Walk to the Red line that goes direct to the airport so im happy with that.. not that I go anywhere haha but its there when I need too :)

I lived in Manila for eleven years. I am American. I bought a condo there. If you spend at least $55,000 to buy a condo you are then entitled to a permanent resident card! I didn’t know this until after I bought the condo. Some guys get married to a Filipina to then get this! But you don’t have to! Then I had a woman do it all for me. She knew the right contacts. Sure enough, I got what’s called an ICR card. Quota Visa. It also lets you open up a business if you want. Plus you get a special window at the airport. That only allows ICR card holders. Makes it easier to go through. So then you don’t have to worry about renewing your visitor visa every 1-3 months. No more of that. It’s great. The one good thing too about the Philippines is that most of them speak English. Easy to communicate. I like Thailand too but as a foreigner it’s easier to stay in the Philippines. Thailand has so many rules and regulations to follow. It can be insane.

I wish airbnb was more allowed though because it gives a great idea on how loud and noisy the property and local area is before you sign a whole year agreement. I remember just watching taxi after taxi dropping airbnb guests off hourly here. Never was filled with partiers though not sure how it is now.

I looked at that place online, in my head I'd set it up almost exactly like you did for your desk/work space. The huge focus on couch/TV setups in these places drives me nuts. The overall layout was one of the more practical in my opinion, for the size. I did think the price was a bit high, but the listing I saw didn't do the facilities justice, and I hadn't noticed the location. Seems reasonable when put together like that. You aren't wrong about the airBnB side of things. Not having a ton of two week millionaires making a racket is worth a little extra too.

This is a condo block not a hotel.

You won’t get a contract less than 3 months though because it’s a waste of time for them. It would also cost more for just 3 months.. again I can’t stress enough this is not a hotel

Hey Rob, thanks for the content! Is this the price you're paying for a long-term rent of 6-12 months? And can you get a similar apartment in the block for a single month? If so, what would the price be? I've just returned to OZ, having just spent some time in Bangkok but I want to head back in the middle of the year and stay a month.

12 month contract.. it’s my home and many others.. not a hotel. There’s clamping down hard on Airbnb here as well so should look to spend 2-3x more for the privilege I’m afraid

I'm not a real estate agent bud so find it terribly difficult to get access to any of the condos actually. Will try though

Great find. Thx for sharing. I’m sure Covid is a big reason for the price. If China doesn’t unleash another prices will go back up. Did you consider KL?

Dang that is very cool. I wonder how hard it would be to move from the US to here and find good enough work to live comfortably.

It depends on your tolerance for other people and a poor standard of living once outside of the house. Developing countries are exactly that… developing. Many things are inconvenient and stress inducing.

Thailand is by far the most convenient country in the world. It’s beyond crazy what you can get here all the time

I pay the double in Boston for a single room. I'm from the East, so I don't mind staying out here in the West, it's an experience and overall things are just better but I'd be lying if I said this video don't make me wanna move to Thailand and train some Muay Thai haha.

Looking to move to Thailand next couple or years

Thank you so much for this video. Which website/platform do you use to book these accommodations? Everything that I found is in Thai language.
