Younger expats in their 20's-early 40's have other options. They could perhaps go back and start a whole new life over again. I guess that I fall into this category, I'm nearly 23 and I work online (so I can work from anywhere that has a decent internet connection) From my perspective, staying in t...

If you're looking at going to Phuket 2-3 times per month you're looking at 60k+. After having a quick look at prices (and considering the amount of traveling involved) I'm thinking it'll be more like one weekend to Phuket (3 days) and one trip to BKK (another 3 days) each month. Thanks again for al...

Your best bet is to come here for a holiday and see yourself. This is a great website, but regarding property it's a bit twisted. You'll get rose tinted impressions from us in the business to outright doom and gloom from many others (some being honest, some with axes to grind, some jealous cos they...

If you're going to purchase a property of any kind, I assume it will be for cash, so that is a big chunk of savings right there.

Anything lower than that won't do IF you will be out on the town a bit, playing golf, get a car, eat out a lot, buy a few ladies drinks, trips to...

I fully understand that this will depend on your lifestyle but with a ballpark from some of you guys it should give me a rough idea of how much it'll cost per month to live in Hua Hin. I've done some searching on the forum and although I've found figures for rent, utility bills, food etc I'd be keen...

Hey all, I'm 22 from Belfast. Property prices have gone nuts over here the past 3 years (up 61% last year) I've been completely priced off the market! I've since decided to look abroad. I've been thinking about visiting Thailand for a few years now, from what I've read about the place it really appe...
