Keep in mind that Social Security doesn't pay out a lot these days. I've been paid quite well all of my life and, as a result, my social security deduction has been hitting the annual cap since my 20's. Not everyone knows, but the government actually caps your deductions at some point so they won't owe you too much SS in the future. Even having hit that cap for two decades, my projected income is still only in the $1,xxx/mo range. If you're in your 40's when you quit your job, you might expect a similar number. Higher in your 50's, of course, lower in your 30's. $1,500 might be enough to live comfortably in Thailand or some similar nation right now, but in the future, as the country modernizes, and as more people like yourself look to retire there, the economy will strengthen and your dollars may not buy as much. I would consider SS a bonus, for sure, but I would plan through the end of my life based on my own savings and not SS, and definitely don't plan based on the current economy of your projected retirement site.

Short answer, I saved up for it.

I did accumulate debt like everybody else Ryan. But, I was raised like a miniature adult. and I was educated to understand how important it is to comprehend and manage your finances, while understanding economics to establish wealth! For many of our citizens, you just can't rely on Social Security as a main source of income because its not enough for the vast majority of the Americans to live off. With the uncertainties pertaining to Social Security in the decades to come, the future regarding it looks bleak! Right now, I have no debt... No mortgage, no car loans, no credit card debt, and no student debt! I don't owe money to the IRS, the state or any liens! I learned how important it is to be a salaried employee and a small entrepreneur because I listen to all those that understood business and finances as a boy! From my parents, to the senior citizens in my neighborhood that are Italian, Jewish, Irish, Greek, Albanian and Chinese business owners that educated me on business/finances. I strongly believe that finances should be taught from K-12 grade. Parents should teach their kids finances but many of these parents are financially illiterate. Think about the insanity. We send kids to school so they can get into a career, and ultimately earn a paycheck. Yet, the majority give them little to no financial education as to how to manage that money. These kids end up in heavy debt before their lives start and lose years trying to fix those mistakes while creditors reap the profits. Finances is not just personal finance. It ranges from basic interest, to investing, to taxes, to mortgages, to understanding retirement. These are concepts used by every adult throughout their entire lives yet we give it the least amount of attention in our educational system. Growing up as a child, I use to help the senior citizens in my community. One took me aside and stressed one thing. All your payments, groceries, car ,gas, rent, /or mortgage should fit in one paycheck (I get paid twice a month from my salaried position), no if, and, or buts. That gives you the other check to save and invest. For my sake, he was right! If I could find him (hopefully he's still alive) I would like to thank him for taking the time with me to explain. What credit really is, is like a convenient store of finances. You can have it now, but you're REALLY gonna pay for it. Financial slavery is what debt is all about. Remember, Debt = Slavery!

Hey Ryan. I already did retire about 5 years ago. I moved to Bangkok three years ago. My social security from America plus IRA distribution is about $3K a month, and I live very well here. No wife, no bills, and everything in moderation. Plus I have a 4 million baht nest egg. I travel all over Southeast Asia as it is very cheap to do so. And to top it off, I save about 10-15 thousand baht per month. Life is good, indeed! I figured out what you did about living frugally and saving about 30 years ago, but you are doing even better than me. Good job Ryan!

Very good story! You answered one of my questions about living abroad. The freedom, the lack of stress is priceless.

You're an inspiration and keep up the hard work. I wish you the best and hope to grab a beer when I make the jump to Thailand my self. Kudos Brother.

Dear Ryan, you are a life guru. I agree 100% with what you said and I felt exactly the same when I turned 30.

Greetings from Switzerland. AJ

You say you were fortunate a lot in this video, but I strongly believe it was your perseverance and sheer will to change your life which created those opportunities for you. Sometimes the fear of risk is too much for some to bear. You are an inspiration to people like me who are also looking for a way out and I thank you for taking the time to make this video. Also my wife is from Thailand so very familiar with the encompassing beauty and rich culture that the country offers.

Gotta be worth it for sure I reckons and especially given the fact you told someone its worth £50 for a short video. One day with me and you love it long time !!! Hahahahaha!!!

I've always worked good jobs but because of the work I did I always got hurt. Now at 50 my injuries are catching up to me. I'm now on disability and moving to Thailand as soon as all my paperwork is done here.

I was broke at 30 too..I'm 33 now and finally found a job I like. My long term goal is living in Greece...the apartments there are super cheap and I hope to buy and rent out a property one day, At the moment I have to work in England and visit Greece when possible to get my fix.

Rich dad poor dad was a great book but never finished it.... After 4-5 holidays to thailand and getting sick of western society's grind and pressure to live a certain way i decided to save for a few years then move to thailand on the cheap,where i would have enough money for 2 years whilst i teach myself to trade stocks online... I'm currently living in vietnam and its starting to work out well. I'm 35 and i've set myself up for a good life abroad.. There are many ways to make money and live the life you always wanted, i guess it comes down to the old saying, How Bad Do You Want It?

Good advice however you do look knackered (tired) your skin looks worn out and inflamed. I have a friend in China who worked like 60 hours a week and in about 5 years he looked really bad with baggy eyes and bad skin. So you gain some and lose some obviously it is about living to your means and reaching a healthy balance. You can go all out for a couple of years but to do it for years and years you will perhaps pay for it in the future with ill health.

Good video. First one of yours I've seen, but just subscribed. Went to Pattaya for the first time 12 months ago. Been back two more times since and will be visiting again this summer with friends. Yeah it had a quite an impact on me. God I want to live in SEA.

Thankyou Ryan. Truly a massive inspiration! First video I've seen of yours but i will definitely keep up to date from here. I just realised i have got a bunch of resumes to hand out tomorrow ;)

I was self employed for 10 years and then quit working and still got enough to carry on for many years. But once you get a family, specially kids... it's never good enough. I had to get back to work because one wants to travel, to buy good education, clothes, insurance, food (organic and local grown), eating out, go to disneyworld - in short all the stuff you can only do when you earn a good amount of cash. I can safely say that on my wife and daughter I spend at least 3 times as much as what I would need to get by on my own.

america thanks you for leaving

Money talk is cultural. Since you have an international audience, local taboos don't apply.

really liked this video dude, keep up the good work!

Around $1600 USD/month. My wife and I spent quite a bit of time over there. Our last big stint was 5 months in Chiang Mai. If I remember correctly we spent around $1400USD/month... so we're currently back in the states employing a lot of the same techniques you're talking about; trying to get to that magic $1500/$2000 month number so we can go indefinitely. Nice video, keep it up!

This guy's a genius. No wonder he was a teacher. He worked out that until he turned 30 he was in his 20s. OMG he's Einstein.

Very interesting story, and it explains how you came to dislike Japan, so many jobs, as the old wisdom goes; all work no play makes Jack a dull boy. Money counts, so does quality of life. Working productively in the right field can be gratifying far more than just the money. Keep exploring, finding your balance is the best goal, enjoy the big world, you sure got a good start at only 40, someday you'll be 50, 60, and more, a long way to go, have fun.

Great advice that so many listen to BEFORE moving to Thailand! I moved here 11 years ago at 40 with what I thought was enough money at the time, but the baht to dollar went from 42bt = $1 to 32 about a yr and a half later. Having to do visa runs didn't help either.

I'm 24 and am a .NET developer at one of the biggest HCPs in the country. I was talking to my team lead a few weeks ago about real estate and portfolio diversification when he told me I should read the book "Rich Dad Poor Dad". I already have no debt and don't buy things I can't pay for in cash so I am going to purchase that book right now after both of your recommendations. Its funny because the conversation got started over me asking him about having a 401k in addition to an IRA. Great vid! I've watched a few of your vids today but now you have another loyal subscriber. Best of luck to you! :)

Ryan this was a great video! I wish you always had this demeanor in your videos, and not the "Hey Fucktards" side of you.

in what way are you extending your stay in the kingdom? As far as visa? Thanks. Great video. Also what part of Thailand are you in?

I would need about $1000 US a month consistently for the rest of my life (not considering inflation). I currently earn between minus 5000€ and plus 20000€ per month and so can earn large amounts of money but my revenue streams are very volatile and high responsibility. Ideal situation would be to be able to position myself into a situation whereby I would passively generate one thousand a month, then I would be exceedingly rich for the rest of my life in Thailand or many other parts of Asia.

He escaped from Japan? Godzilla ran him out of town LOL

"I worked really hard in Japan". As a TEFL teacher :'D So hard....so, so hard.

Great video, the hard work is paying off. Rich Dad Poor Dad is a great book and made a big impact on me. I wish I had read it a lot sooner though but better late than never.

It is pretty easy. When you are in Thailand without a job you are either retired (need to be 50+ of age with 800.000 baht in the bank or 65.000 baht a month retirement) or you have a job. Any other situation and you are a tourist. Which forces you to exit the country every month. And you are not guaranteed to get a new visa, so be ready to leave.

this guy is a mess,,,

I like how you title the video "How I live in Thailand without working" then proceed to describe the work you did.

Great video.

As soon as you asked that question at the end, I was like, I already figured it out haha. I'm $28,500 (roughly)short from retiring in Thailand (based on age, lifestyle, and such)

When I watched my first "Boundless" video you were talking about Gaijin Hunters and I didn't pick up on it then because I wasn't as familiar with the asian accent as I am now (sister in law is Korean). But now, after being around her for a few months and just picking up on her accent and listening to other japanese people (really asian not necessarily japanese). You TOTALLY took some of that with you. Hope that doesn't leave a bad taste in your mouth but ya. it's there! lol. Listen to how you said "Guru" and then listen play the video over again and your language abilities start becoming evident. lol.

Cheers, that saved me a bit of time, less than a minute in and you've insulted your viewers already. Don't need to watch someone with so much contempt.

I am planning on moving to Thailand for school soon so that's what brought me here. I am glad you have been able to make things work and be happy in a new place. I am hopeful that I will be able to do the same! :)

Thanks for sharing Ryan!

Monthly amount of money to walk away from my job - 9,000 or 10,000 NIS , which is about 2,500 to 2,700 USD. That's what i'm aiming for with my job any way and it will set me up on rent, living expenses and like a vacation 2,3 times a year. I'm talking as a bachelor though, so when and if i get marries, you gonna need to double that.

Excellent video bro.. Really enjoyed this one. Peace..

So how much does it cost to live in Thailand per month? I watched the video but I don't think he mentioned it.

Really good video! Thanks for sharing!

Hey Ryan- A quick question for you and your subscribers - I will be in Thailand next month, I will need a sim card for my iphone , which is the best wireless carrier in Thailand. Thanks for the info. Best Wishes BTW great channel.

I know a guy in Bangkok who's living very comfortably off his U.S. Navy pension. He gets about $4000 a month transferred from his U.S. bank account to his Thai account. He's living in a luxury condominium which has an Olympic size swimming pool, gym, concierge, security, etc, near downtown Bangkok. I'm talking about an old timer whose generous pension gives him access to young local putang on a regular basis. The guy lives like a king in Thailand and he has no intention of ever returning stateside.

great video ryan you have got me thinking right now , unsure of what id need to walk away

Loved your video. Very informative and inspiring. Thanks for sharing your experiences.

May I ask how you escape paying taxes in the USA? I have a friend who intends to leave the USA and come to live in Spain, but she says it is obligatory to pay taxes in the USA.

Good job Ryan. Motivational video. keep up the good work.

Excellent advice -- I have an ex-pat brother living in Bangkok who could learn a LOT from you -- I have sent him the link to your video -- thanks for publishing.

Hi Ryan, I am from Australia and was thinking to move over there. I also do not have the necessity to work as I have a decent steady income. I will like to go to a nice place where there is plenty of nature, Good Schools for my son, possibly a beach and cleanliness. Which place in Thailand would you recommend? Some people told me about Chiang Mai do you agree or you think there is a better place for a family to move in to? I was thinking to come for holiday couple of months to see how it is and decide. Maybe travel little around.... Which places do you think may be candidates for a good lifestyle but also with good education like good universities? Thanks!

Great video Ryan, keep it up

WTG . Was wondering myself admittedly. Thanks for being candid. Agree with Amanda as well

Ryan, you are really smart. Thanks for sharing your wisdom.

Great video....the great Western experience is about spending, and not saving, and that fails. You are one of our few that understand that a person's financial success it is not how much you make, but how you manage your money.

Why did you choose Pattaya over Phuket, Krabi or other city or beach town in Thailand? Why do you live in Thailand over other countries or other countries in SE Asia?

I teach and travel the world and because I am on expat contracts living is cheap. In SG they pay around $9k a month for teachers and healthcare is covered and accommodation. SG is cheaper than living in the west but expensive by Eastern standards. You can scrap by in Thailand but when I go to Thailand i am spending a lot. It is not as cheap as what it was. Anyway I have my own channel and blog and will continue to upload more to help people

Let the haters hate Ryan, they still keep watching. Good fortune on your journey and honest opinion of life.

Great video Ryan! Very insightful 👍🏻

Live simple and leave expensive countries. That is my key. I'm trying to move to Thailand later. Right now in Ecuador. Just as cheap. How did you manage the visa?
