I'd love living in Thailand. I'd like the heat too.
swampzoid living or staying? With a 1 year visa as max, i call it stay, not live. You are never sure.
Nice video.
Thanks!
You can live well in thailand for much less than that.

Electricity is only expensive because the condo management inflates the charges from the utility companies. I've never paid more than 900 baht per month but I pay directly to the electricity authority.
Take a look at the Facebook group "Discussing the Real Thailand"
Where in Chiang Mai do you live at that price? My place is like $430/month.. it's nice, but it's not 900 square feet nice.
Daniel Worsham people would love to see videos of the area you live in. Thank you for quoting your price.
Couldn't watch it cause of that high-pitched noise - insect??
Good lord, you are a good looking couple. You're like models for a Norman Rockwell painting.
Very much so!!
I'm concerned about the medicare system in Thailand. How do you deal with the health insurance? Thank you.
We have all kinds of strategies, from self-insurance to group insurance to flying-home insurance! I've actually written a book about this. Medical Insurance in Thailand

Thank you. I'll check into it.
I've put my email address in it so you can contact me if you have any questions...
Thanks so much. Few more years, we'll be approaching our retirement. I'm hoping to pay a scouting trip sometime soon. Anyway, it's exciting, yet anxious. I know that everything will work out, as it always does. It's having the patience to get there. Thanks for your help.
You're welcome. Hope you like what you find!
I know exactly where they were, Mamia coffee!!!!! We spend many happy afternoon there when we visited Chiang Mai last summer....
Exactly!!
Mr Roberts, may be you can interview more folks at that restaurant?
Twin Jalanugraha Happy to!
Are the mosquitoes really bad there? Mosquitoes just love me. Its the reason I wont live in Florida.
No, they're not in the same class as Florida mosquitoes!
@@GodfreeRoberts I assume you can live high on the hog with $7000 a month? Rent a nice home or are apartments the way to go?
Just like an old cowboy movie. Ends with bar drinking expenses.
xshanghu even better!
What you guys think about the Papaya Salad, lol?
Love it!!
I live in thailand and they are fairly right
Yes. I agree. Pretty accurate on all counts
When l retire l plan to stay in Thailand too.
good idea!
Can you "translate" $430 USD from 2013 for a furnished 2BR/1BA + dining room (~1000 sq. ft.) to $xxx USD in 2018 ?? (i know that in the last 5 years of *my* travels in TH, the costs have indeed increased in Bangkok, Phuket Town, Kata, Phang Nga, Coconut Island, Pattaya, Jomtien.... thanks!
I live in Chiang Mai and my 3BR house with Western kitchen, carport and lawn costs $300 in 2018 US dollars
Thailand Retirement Dee Dee mak mak ;-)
Dee dee mak mak indeedy!
@@thailandretirement3681 I am very interested in retiring there. My husband will be 55 years next August 2020. My business is online but I would need to find a way to be able to use a phone line/number that is is a USA phone #. I talk quite a bit on the phone thru the day and so if I can find a way to do this way then we can retire in Thailand as my clients are online. We just email and text and phone call. Any suggestion?
@@kayvang-thao1207 Just sign up for Google Voice. It's an excellent service.
What the fuck, there's blood streaming out of my ears from that high pitched noise.
+Pfsif You have low-pitched ears, that's all.
+Pfsif Can't you be respectful, especially to elders which deserve respect...?
+Bio Power The noise is made by cicadas. It's a classic Thai midsummer sound. It can drive you nuts after a few hours, admittedly.
WTF? What is the High pitched noise? Do you hear it? Are you deaf? I am sorry for your suffering.
Its the sound of crickets
Exactly!
Dennis Cumberland that s an insect make sound like that.
Yes. It's insects
Dennis Cumberland I suggest you call it nature.
I want to know where they live so I could get a place there..loll..Thanks for video..
Probabbly Chang Mai ..... it's cheep there , it also is so polluted 2 months a year it's 5 times WHO standards.
MrGarnache
thats good to know being that I know chang mai is inland but not much is said about city enviroments in thailand only that they are good cheap places to live.
ht3oldnavy That's because they are trying to sell a nonsense story about it being paradise for cheep , if they mentioned the pollution , garbage , soi dogs , loudspeakers . buring fires , flooding , crime , the general delapadated nature of public areas , heat and humidity , rainy season , and so on ..... it would not make for such a nice story to sell some books or websites. :)
MrGarnache
Totally forgot about some of those extremes. You more than made your point. Much appreciated.
ht3oldnavy It doesn't mean EVERYWHERE is a bad place to live in Thailand ...... it means you have to look 100 times harder than the book seller types make it seem ..... their are plenty of good places to be , but also plenty X2 very crappy places to be :)
Assuming the docs are ok surely the main problem is the cost of treatment for serious illness in Thailand. I have considered living there and it ticks all the boxes except serious illness and reminds me of how good my country the UK is.
It pays to ask around about local docs, that's for sure.
True! But then, in that situation anywhere you're screwed!
Maybe you're right. I'd forgotten how much we take that for granted at home..
That s an insect. They make sounds like that.
how is the healthy system for mental deseases?
Most emotional disturbances are handled by the Temples, though there are psychiatric and neurological hospitals as well.
+6packter You gave me my first laugh of the day!
pseudoscience with herbs lmfao
Not great. Most people are treated at the temple - which works fine for emotional trauma - and neurological hospitals have some very competent staff, it's hit or miss.
Much better than pseudoscience with dangerous pharmaceuticals smh
If You have no Money! Stay Home!
Marco Guler Peace to you , It is to exspence to live at home now that is why many , many , people choose to live abroad , try it you might like it ENJOY !
