Cheers! I’m glad it was helpful!
I love Thailand and can't spend enough time there. I'd absolutely hate to work there though, better to build wealth/assets in a richer country and coast by on Thailand's extremely low cost of living

Agree, although I think that there are a lot of misconceptions about working in Thailand. My salaries here have generally been similar to back home, and the costs are way lower so I’ve actually banked a lot more here than I would have back home.

Had a great few years in Bangkok working in recruitment. However, it was the very high cost of high school education that brought us home.

This is the most common reason friends of mine have left as well. The international schools are pricey!

I worked nonstop for a while and now i can live off of growing investments in Thailand. The long term barrier is business/work visa. I could defer to teaching bjj/judo in a smaller province but im interested in developing new skills with the time while i study the language. Are you planning on making videos of what businesses other expats have started ?

Yeah, I plan to cover this as well! The visa situation is a challenge. The education visa is a decent option…just need to make sure that the school is legit! Cheers

The weather in Canada is cool and the air is nice and clean. It’s better than Thailand, isn’t it? If I were you, I would live in Canada

@@thebangkokguide If you had to choose between Thailand and Canada, would you choose to live in Thailand or Canada?
Teaching experience gained in Thailand is worthless in other countries. They don't give a damn unless you have certificates to show. I have 15 years of teaching experience in total however because none of that was legal it means nothing. However I have the skills and could totally manage the hell of out of a class. I also speak a second language.

Unfortunately this is true. I’ve met quite a few people who are in this situation, and the private schools here can be pretty ruthless when it comes to ageism as well. Can make for a tough career path.
I cant find work at all and I cant even find remote work here in cali. I want to go to thailand so bad but it just aint working

I call bullshit on your international school salary. I have a friend who does recruitment in BKK. Nowhere near 100k bro...... 60K baht max.

I work at an international school… pay at almost every international school is over 100k. Top tier is closer to 160k. any international school paying 60k is a private school masquerading as an international school.
