Great video rob .. really helpful keep up the good work
Thanks bud.. I’ll try do some more of these in the future and improve on them
2 videos you need to do. "What camera gear I use" & "How I pack for travel"
I will do a gear video at some point.. and my advice for travel packing coming to Bangkok... Dont! haha theres everything you need here and more. Better off taking things from here back home instead of bringing things to Thailand
The biggest costs is still the Condo. The price range are huuuuge and sometimes unbelievable cheap OR expensive. My Condo is a bit pricy for a 1 Bedroom + 1Bathroom but I choosed it because of the view. You should mention that the prices for the condos you show are mostly for a 1 year contract. If you stay only 1,2,3 month or just some weeks the prices get quick high. I'm envy of your internet-speed. I only have 50/20 :( But ok....
Thanks Franko I appreciate you taking the time to watch. Sometime you can get good deals on Airbnb for monthly stays so didn’t want to rule that out. But your ryt I probably should have made it clear that my costs were for 1+ year long stays rather than short to mid term holidays. I’m 100% paying for the view and location on my place haha but I still love it! Would be good to catch up with a coffee some time if you free
Think it's absolutely worth it to spend a bit more and have a place you enjoy coming home to. For me anyways. I'd really be interested to know more about the ins and outs of rental leases? That could be a vlog suggestion all of it's own. eg;what happens if a lease is broken? What visa / ID is needed to sign on etc.
Great vid Rob! I would defo consider your condo luxurious! Lol
Thank a lot bud.. I’m sure you will see it one day when you pull your finger out and book a flight haha
Your Macbook being that close to water just freaked me out LOL
Haha yeah I did feel a little odd myself to be fair haha
$1,000 U.S. dollars a month is tight but with a strong U.S. dollar it is possible but $2,000 is a good number so one can keep up with inflation for years.
I agree.. I could rent a condo for 5000 baht but what kind of life would I have.. its all relative to be honest
Very good content , very helpful and realistic
Thanks a lot Joe! Just want to give no BS advice from my own experience.. I don’t pretend to know everything or have all the answers.. but hopefully give a helpful point of view from my own experience here :)
@@ProjectBangkok love it man, keep it going.....maybe do a One night in Bangkok with friends?
Great info. Don't forget to add the weekly boom boom cost (1500 baht ST). Hahaha.
Woahhhh would have to add another 0 to the end of the budget.. that’s a different kind of video 🤣🤣
Good video, i think it's pretty much how i would live, but there is one thing your forgot an that is the cost of visa, how much does the visa cost per month and how much does borderrund/visaruns cost, or what is the price for 90 days reporting and so forth?
Hi Rob! Sawatdee krup from California 🙏
Thank you for the insight. I'm curious, is this 1k USD budget still doable today (taking into account this video is a year old).
I'm near 40 years of age and I feel like moving out there. I visited Thailand for almost a year back in 2006 so I have some familiarity. My plan would be to teach English initially until I can move onto more lucrative trades or work remotely.
I don't smoke, drink alcohol or even party. Im more than happy to eat Thai food off the streets 100% of the time. I do love my iced coffees though, bot sure how much they run now. Sometimes I'd settle for those Birdy canned coffees at 7-Eleven haha.
I'd like to start in BKK just for more job opportunities, maybe even through an agency to secure the job (although I realize they take a percentage). I'm fine with a simple apartment or studio as long as it's close to the BTS.
Any info would be appreciated!
Top man so helpful
Glad it helped 😁
🤟🏼
Get your ass here lad!
You forgot to include visa cost.
Theres so many different visas it is impossible to add that to the budget.. I have an elite visa myself.. so would be completely unfair to add that to the costs compared to an education visa.
I will do a dedicated visa video at some point when I work my way through the mine field of information haha
Is $1000 usd going to go further in Pattaya compared to Bangkok?
100%.. rent, food and entertainment are all cheaper there for sure
Bro.... can you be mine advisor for this topic 😜😉😁🤣
Hey Martin - nice to see you here :D
Who doesn’t know Martin 555 yeah bro you know I’ll show you the way 😉
@@frankoseven hello Frankieee 👋
@@ProjectBangkok great Bro, see you soon
Bro you spend $1000 like every 2 days in Bangkok hahaha
What AIS sim do you have exactly that is 300THB/month for unlimited data? I can't seem to find it.
It’s called “Fixxy 349 baht package” and is 349 baht 👍🏻 hope that helps
@@ProjectBangkok Thanks mate, I'll check it out!
