    In this video I give you a tour of my new thai villa after moving out of my condo to give you an idea of what roughly $2100 per month rent in Thailand will get you, this Villa is located half way between Jomtien Beach and Pattaya about 5 minutes away from the beach and surrounded by restaurants and convenience, you could probably get something like this for cheaper if you was willing to compromise on location.
    This is just a quick vlog and due to moving I've been a bit slow on creating content recently but I'm back to working now
    What do you think about my new thailand villa? do you think the cost of living looks good here? what would $2100 per month get you where you live? let me know in the comments below!

    --Thai Villa Description--
    This Thai Villa is a cross between Thai and Bali style, it's a detached house with a pool, jacuzzi, 5 toilets, 3 showers, 2 bedrooms, one large office space, large kitchen, dining room as well as a large outdoor space with plants, for $2100 per month I got all of this fully furnished with gardening and pool maintenance included.
    Different parts of Thailand will offer you varying prices and properties for example a condo or villa like this in Bangkok would cost you more than double the price (if you can even find something like this in Bangkok)
    One of the biggest benefits of moving overseas from the west is the cost of living and lower taxes, if you're young, not tied down and have the means of working remotely I highly recommend looking into it, life is one big MMORPG, there's no need to stick around in the starter zone if you're unhappy, the world is a big place so it makes sense to go where you're treated best.

    As always, loved the video! Was finally in May able to get out to Thailand. The COVID restrictions are really whack, made it nigh impossible to get out here and then quarantine on top of quarantine when I did get out here. Was only the beginning of June when I have been able to go out and explore a bit of what IS still open. I'm always excited to see your Thailand vlogs m8 and keep up all the great work! Cheers

    • @TheLazyPeon
      @TheLazyPeon  3 ปีที่แล้ว +148

      Depends on the person, for some people making this move wouldn't make them happier, leaving friends and family behind isn't worth it for most, for me I'm not super close to my family and due to moving around so much in the past I never had that stable long term friend group so the choice was easier, overall I'm happier here than I would have been in Europe, more freedom, tax savings, sunlight all year round, friendly people and good food with lots of places to visit, as with anywhere the novelty wears off overtime and it just becomes your normal life but baseline happiness is much higher for sure.
      Now that I'm making good money and "living the dream" as many would say It's clearer now more than ever that happiness comes from within, if I didn't have goals, if I didn't workout or keep pushing myself whilst also being grateful for the simple things in life such as good health then I'd be miserable, doesn't matter where you live in the world happiness comes from mindset, a sense of purpose, gratitude and the people you surround yourself with once your baseline needs are met.

      If a pensioner doesn't have money he won't be able to stay in Thailand since you need a minimum of either 400K or 800K baht in the bank depending on the visa just to get the thing. @Grant it depends what your needs and budget is.

    I personally don't think I could move just to have a better standard of living, at least not across the world. Growing up in America, yes the big major cities, like with other major cities in other countries, are very expensive to live in. However, living in a suburb on the outskirts of a major city (in my case, Chicago), is very affordable. The thing that puts me off to just packing up and going over to Asia is the culture difference. I would love to visit those countries, but I feel like I would feel very isolated, even more than now in such a country. I wouldn't mind moving to say Europe or Canada, but anything else seems beyond me.
    Glad you are happy, stay safe!

      This is very true, I live in a suburb in the upstate of South Carolina and $2k a month could easily get you a 3500sq house. Assuming you don't need that much space, you could forgo that extra sq ft and get a nice house with all the bells and whistles.
