bro i love to hear it - the world is yours fam! thanks for watching

My budget last month in the south of Thailand was $400. $70 for electricity to run the AC 20 hours a day, No rent, $12 for internet, 60 cents for my flip phone, $2 for water, $80 fuel for car. $10 for car insurance. That's $175 without food. I eat out a lot and buy some foods for relatives. If I didn't eat restaurant food, it would be easy for me to live on $300 a month. I live on a paved road in rural Mai Seab/ Koh Khan. 1 mile to 7-11 and the freeway. 5 miles to KFC or hospital. 20 miles to Phattalung. My house is paid for.

yea but no rent and no nightlife... those are two big spender categories

Getting a sense of these monthly expenses very helpful. Yes to affordability and high quality of life in that CM vibe. And $1500 (max) --- that's completely doable with some planning.

your energy is immaculate my friend!! thank you so much for this video and information! I'm traveling to Thailand soon, can't waittt. I'm also used to paying $1100 for a ROOM in an apt in NYC. $265 is INSANE, for such a nice place!! With a balcony too!!! Amazing

I went to Pattaya and stayed 42 days, during this time i've writen down Every expense so now i am comparing what you are saying to my statistics. We spend the same amount for food. my accomodation was 11300 for a month (electricity and water included). boom booms took 48% of my total budget spent while in pattaya (which does not include plane ticket i bought before coming, of course) averaging at 33200 baht per month spent on boom boom :)

Thanks for the video. Last year, I lived in the Jomtien area for 6 months and my monthly budget was $3K and that's with companionship with a regular Thai lady for 3x a week without buying any LDs and barfines. I did not eat any western food due way more expensive and been eating Thai food in the market. In my early 50's now, I was planning to retire but I changed my mind in the very last second and back to work again in CA, started from scratch. Will do this again, next year.

Surprised by your food costs, they seem quite high to me. You should go to the local markets and avoid chain stores for better prices. Buy direct from the farmers.
