every channel reports on the cost of living. It is very difficult to cater to the needs of individuals. I would divide it into three groups. Economical, normal and upscale. I, for example, am very economical, drink occasionally (sometimes more), don't smoke, eat in a restaurant (local) 2 - 3 times a week. My experience shows that rent is the biggest expense. Of course, everyone has different ideas, which is why we divide them into three groups. For my needs, 1000-1200 US would be enough for a comfortable life. I estimate 350 US for rent, 350 for groceries (I love cooking). So I still have 300-500 US left over that I can use for things that are important to me.
What about 700$?
Thank you for the content it's nice to see what happens in other countries 😊
More to come!
Thank you, James for a great informative video for those of us looking at Cambodia as a potential retirement destination. I plan to travel there soon and your videos are a great help getting my plans in order. All the best.
Sounds great!
Thank you for providing great information. ❤
Any time!
After being in Siem Reap only a few weeks I must say that many of the bloggers including your channel are absolutely correct related to the economic cost of living in Cambodia. Matter of fact I would say that most financial analysis is conservative and it is very possible to live comfortable as a single person on less than $750. However comfortable is very subjective. I don't drink and I don't drive. I eat one meal a day and I like to walk. I can bank more than half my Social Security without feeling deprived of any luxury. I need my aircon and provide a free gift offering to someone daily. I feel very fortunate to have been born in the USA where now I can go to another part of the world and live comfortably where as I am unable in my own country. Yet where can a poor Cambodian , or Filipino or a poor South African go to live comfortably at the end of their journey. I am not living in the Taj Mahal Palace, but I also not living in a sewer like the kids in Nogales Mexico/AZ(called: Sewer Rats). Respectfully
It's called white privilege
If you are married and 1 spouse is 56, another one is 52 years old - then the easier rule of over 55 won't apply? Do both of us need to be above 55? Thanks.
To expensive
Too expensive for me
Would that hospital be able to treat a heart attack or stroke?
i guess so it's run by thai royal hosiptals
You as every other channel Ive watched, speak in dollars and from my past visit to Cambodia 20 years ago, everything was priced in dollars for tourists and didn't want the local currency. My question is " can you live in Cambodia purely using local currency now" i.e i transfer my UK pounds into a local bank i set up into local currency and then using it for everything i buy, including rentals etc, or do landlords and vendors insist on USD? from Foreigners living there?
Stay away from US dollar in Cambodia , because the slightest mark or crease in the note , will find you stuck with that note
Shops will not accept
aba mobile banking
One very important thing not discussed here if you are a Brit planning to retire in Cambodia, you will not receive your annual state pension increase, in the Philippines you do..I would have thought that this would be mentioned here..
I have been searching through TH-cam for months now, it seems like there is no place for people like me who's on the $1030 a month social security!!!
you can here in Cambodia .. but it might be a bit tight..
Is poverty worse in Cambodia or the Philippines?
I don't really know i could guess here..
Do you know if there are Homeopathic Doctors in Siem Reap ?
i do't know sorry
What about 700$?
It can be done
