      I saved a lot of your posting Ryan. My younger sister , 15 years, a self admitted sceptic, even if she has a good heart ….is taking care of me. The younger generation thinks …everything is for content creating. Before she interferes and thinks she is helpful…. I will have to delete your postings I saved….
      I tried your refreshing advice …. F……em… feels good. But not helpful here…. I will of course follow you …. I go back to ‘35 as you know.

    My first teaching job was at a school in the countryside in Khao Chang Prain. I learned so much about life in my short stint in what was also one of my most difficult times. The people of the village were brilliant to me and would do everything for me. They never asked for anything in return and always protected me as a young man of 27.Same went for the principle Mr.Wannachai and my students. I remember my last day of teaching at the school and had to turn my back to one of favourite classes who were 17-18 the years old so they could not see I was upset but they knew and came up to console me. Even now at 44 I recognise this as one of my happiest times.
    I hope someday I get to return.

    I was once chastised in Pattaya by a Scandanavian guy because I gave a homeless man some T shirts and shorts I no longer used. I did not like to do this myself because I did not want to feel like a benevolent Farang and virtue signaling so I got a Thai girl in the bar to give them to him. This Scandanavian guy demanded to know why I had done this. I told him it was none of his business if I wanted to give someone who was less fortunate than myself something and mind his own business. Some people are really strange. Anyway enjoyed your video again Ryan...take care.😂

    This reminds me of Jon Jandai. He says he didn’t know he was poor till he found out from TV (when it arrived in his rural Thai village). Time in the city amongst the “rich” made him realise he wanted to be “poor” again. He moved back home. Cheers and thanks for the video.

      @Ned88Man หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      I mean, it's a double edged sword. While there are some good things about less "health and safety" regulations, it means more kids on motorcycles without helmets getting into accidents, which is unfortunate and people having no qualms getting shi%faced and getting behind the wheel, because they know there are no consequences. While the former is not really THAT bothersome to me, the latter is something that really isn't acceptable and I can't stand when the rose colored glasses apologists defend it. That's just me. I feel like people have the right to be out on the road and not to have worry about drunk drivers, of course, there are drunk drivers all over the world, but when people aren't held accountable for their actions, it's a really unfortunate situation. This is something that SHOULD not be defended, would you defend it in your home country...probably not, so why would you defend it in Thailand? And you know, saying that Thailand is "eternally free" disregards some of the real issues that this country has with actual freedom. I mean, the people can't even go to the ballot box and have their voices heard for Christ's sake, I don't know how much freedom there really is. Sure, you can ride around without a helmet and drive drunk as a skunk, but is that the freedom people actually need when they can't even have a say in their own future?

    I like your vlogs. My wife and I have moved to Bali. When we came here I relinquish all control of our money. I don't have a credit card or a bank account. I have no power over any of it, which I love. On saying that we own a house 2 scooters and have a happy life. I have a Royal Enfield Himalayan on order. I advise my wife if I think a venture isn't a good idea and we've had some doosies of arguments but my advice has always been heard and followed. We've known each other for 20 years and married for 16. I wish everyone could have such a wonderful relationship. Trust and care makes everything grow. Without fear or greed anything is possible.

    The villagers are probably buoyed by their simple lives. In Britain, people are greedy and the more they want, the more they get, but they don't necessarily want to earn that right. It makes life complicated and the more complicated it gets, the more unhappy people get. I retired last year at 53 years old. I've never felt so happy. My life is simple. It has less people in it spouting far less crap...which means there is less gobshytes in my life. I loveit

    Absolutely love your vids. I married a Thai and we live in U.K. I love holidays in Thailand. My wife’s family live up north in rural Thailand they don’t have much but they all pull together in their village and take care of each other. People from the west would probably describe their way of life as a life of poverty but honestly what little they have they share with each other and they are happy. Going there and seeing how they live and how they get along together has been a real eye opener for me. Keep doing the great work you do and enjoy living your best life. If buying some helmets for the children in your village makes you feel good then do it. I am pretty sure doing it will be well appreciated by the families there and who knows you may save a childs life.🙏

If people are offended over nothing or misunderstanding then that is their issue and not yours. My friendship circle is ever decreasing and this started when I just starting speaking the truth about things.

    Hi Ryan, been following your channel for at least a couple of years now. I have lived and traveled in Japan and been to Hong Kong and have kept up on asian culture in various southeast asian countries for many years now. Your commentary on not being an ATM was good advice from someone who's lived in Thai culture for awhile now and that advice also applies to other asian countries, and countries in general as well. It was just common sense advice, nothing less, nothing more. As you said, there are westerners who travel to some of these countries looking for a wife who are otherwise pretty lonely and socially inept and a target for those who would take advantage of them. This could occur in any country around the world but the advice to be safe, be aware and to not let yourself be a target is something that hopefully others might take into account and use that to find a partner who will genuinely care for them regardless of the thickness of their wallet. Enjoyed the walk around the neighborhood, but especially the end where you arrived back at your home and there was the boys and your wife waiting for you. Like a ray of sunshine! Keep doing what you're doing, I can't remember a time where I regretted watching your videos and many times when they have put a warm smile on my face. 🙏

    Hi kiddo, Atherton lad here. Saw the future of my once beautiful country 60 years ago when travelling through Daubhill, Bolton, enough said. Done 12 years of hedonistic wine, women and song here in Pattaya.......time to move on for one last hurrah inspired by your videos. Building a home on my wife's farm close to Mukdaham. Bye to my fantasy life - reality beckons.

    All we can do, is to give our own opinion on things, right? Our opinion is mostly based on our own experience, or else it might have limited value. You have a lot of experience, and your opinion matters a lot to us, your subscribers. You have earned your respect, especially after all you went through in Thailand, as a bar owner, alcohol problems etc. These youtube videos always come with a few bezzerwizzers, as I call them, or know-it-alls. Try not to let yourself down by any of these. You express yourself very well, and you should know that your opinion is valid and respected among us Thais as well. I think we understand you and farangs better, hearing what you have to say. Keep up this amazing work, Ryan 🤗🤗

    Forming one's own opinions does not require speaking one's opinions out loud, does it? I think that it is the latter, which tends to get some of us in trouble (yeah, I am one who cannot keep his opinions to himself... lol)
    There is also having/speaking your own opinions and ignorantly parroting the opinions of others. I also think it is the latter which tends to frequenty get society at large in trouble.
    Thanks for providing so much food for thought. Watching your channel helps to keep my aging brain active.... :)

    Ryan, I am discovering just how much ignornace drives the shallow and uninformed conversations now days. As I prepare to move to Thailand, I am getting questions like - "Will you have an inside toilet?" "So you are going to live without a phone or TV now?" and "If they are Buddhist why would they enjoy some parts of Christmas celebrations?" Even as I work on being a better, less judgemental person, this kind of willful ignorance and lack of curiousity about the world gets to me every time.

    Interesting video :) Honestly though when you look at it, English people are some of the jolliest folk considering what we go through. Going back years and years to post-war depressions, economic turmoil, high levels of taxation, job scarcity, horrendous rainy weather and harsh winters, we always find a way to have a laugh and a joke somewhere; especially Northerners, It definitely gets worse the further south you go though, having lived / worked in Cambridge (elitist, old money families, complaining, overly sensitive etc)
    I liked your talk on self honesty, i think this is why a lot of youtube channels fail, the people just aren't authentic to themselves.

    I have been watching your vlogs since you moved onto you land when you built your bamboo huts and put in your garden
    Some people will become walking ATM's when they come to Thailand
    Some people won't become Walking ATM's
    Its a fact of life its a statistical fact some will thrive some will fall
    Every person who decides to travel move and reside in Thailand needs to listen to your advise becauce its a minfield out there
    I have been there done that and have the tee shirt
    Lucky l married a great Thai lady after getting burnt and we are happy and building a life together

    Yes, stay true to who you are and don't shy away from expressing your views. Everyone should remind themselves however, to express themselves in a respectful, even toned way. Our worldview is shaped by experiences, interactions and views of others. Be open to those differing views. Blunt, dogmatic, disrespectful people are difficult to like. Vloggers need to remind themselves that commenters simply criticizing their view or how a video is made, does not make them "trolls" - any more than a vlogger is a troll for taking a critical view on a particular subject.
    I don't believe it is the case with this particular presenter, but all to often, vloggers have very thin skin and quickly become defensive in the face of criticism.

    The words "know thyself" or Gnothi Seauton were inscribed above the entrance to the temple of Apollo at Delphi in Greece. Although this phrase has been attributed to Socrates as well as Heraclitus, Pythagoras before him, This is one of the 147 maxims of the Delphic Oracle, which is important throughout Greek, Roman, and late Western philosophy. Their origin is unknown, but they appear to have been put forward before the time of the Buddha. Lao Tzu said "knowing others is intelligence, knowing yourself is true wisdom. Buddha taught that the sense of self is an illusion.

    Thank you for yet another super insightful video. So much here. Over-thinking seems to provide the illusion of being "smart" and in control.

    Famous quote which sums it up to perfection.... "Haters gonna hate".
    Always have and always will. Karma dictates it's just revisited upon them, thankfully.
    Re helmets, we've all bumped our head on a door, a cupboard, a lamppost or whatever.
    In Bangkok I once walked into a signpost I'd not seen as I was talking to my daughter, walking behind me.
    A lot of blood, not insignificant amount of pain and EIGHT stitches to my head later, it occurred to me that a "brisk walking pace" (and I wasn't even going that fast) is around four miles per hour.
    What state would my head have been in, had I been travelling at 20, 30, 40 or more MPH?
    Hardly bears contemplating.

    I agree with your views about having opinions, ok you are not going to be right all the time but you are entitled to your opinion. I have been to Thailand many times and find that going out to villages and talking to the what I call the true Thai is not just seeing a different side to the country, but also what you were saying they do not have a lot but always seem happy and friendly.

    Thanks Ryan. I think it's great you are a mature thinking Farang in Thailand, who can speak Thai and talk about life. It's quite okay to express a reasoned opinion. You shouldn't worry too much about those who protest about anything. Those who protest are doing so unseen from behind a profile on the internet. They have no willingness to accept you have legitimate, well-meaning opinions that you're prepared to express publicly. How can you understand the viewpoint of every other person? You can't and viewers should know that. So don't worry about the loud protesters who may very well just enjoy attacking others 👍🏻
