You hear many people talking bad about Thai women. Some of the things they say are true but most are not. Many Farang have challenges because of the type of women they get into relationships with. Up until the last few years there were limited ways to meet Thai women except by going to where some could speak some English. Unfortunately those places weren’t necessarily conducive to finding the perfect long term partners.
But things have changed. With social networking sites and internet dating sites more young, educated Thai women are now able to meet Farang without the social stigma of talking to unknown Farang strangers in public.
Well a researcher has seen this trend become more popular lately and decided to do a study about it. Here were her results and comments on the topic.

My Thai GF is younger than me, university educated, has a career with the Thai government as an IT manager, owns her own home and car and has never asked me for a dime... We are together because we care for each other, no more, no less... We respect each other's cultures and values, while enjoying the differences...

lucky bastard :)
99% of foreigners and thai women are with bar girls and prostitutes. Most local thais know this and many Westerners know this as well.
That was 2 years ago....I guess you’re dead now
If true maybe its you thats with her for her money lol
I'm glad you did this one, JC. We have already discussed this in the forum. For the non members, I'll throw in a bit more feedback. It isn't just the young Thai women who are appealing. As an older man, I appreciate a woman closer to my own age. My Thai wife is in her mid 50s (but appears much younger) and is very well educated. For the most part, a lot of the negative stereotypes come from older Farangs who hooked up with young Thai hotties without giving consideration to the fact that, at some point, something more than appearance was going to come into play. When the infatuation wears off, there is no content left and, in many cases, the couples didn't even really like each other. There are a lot of older, attractive, educated, independent women in Thailand who, from a Thai man's perspective, have missed the boat. Many of my wife's friends devoted themselves to careers in health care or other professional occupations. Now that they have reached middle age, Thai men are no longer interested in them. They are also quite independent, which may also not be suitable for Thai men. I would endorse many of these women for relationships with a decent guy.
Jim Yerardi To clarify for this writer: would you please put numbers on a what you classify as middle age? I am very curious to know that which you refer to. Thanks for your comments; it's an interesting perspective.
My wife and I are both in our 50s. We know several other couples who are mixed (Farang/Thai). My personal observation is that those who are closer in age seem to be living a more fulfilling life. Those who have a much older man in a relationship with a significantly younger woman have not had the best long term relationships.
I appreciate the perspective but if you would please: What is the age range you are referring to for Thai women that fit the category of middle age. Just 2 numbers is all I need.
Michelangelo Buonarroti Anywhere from the 40s and 50s are specifically who I am referring to. I am friends with quite a few single women in this age range who are quite successful.
40 thru and including 59. Appreciate it very much. Thank you. Exactly what is truly appealing. Mature but with plenty of life (and fun) remaining in their lives. Just like this writer. Cheers!
If you get a good Thai woman and treat her right, you will never look at western women again.
+pretorious700 Why diss western women?Your mother...?I bet she was western?Your grandmother...western too?....I respect western women and I sincerely believe that western men and thai women are a weird mix that will often fail to "CULTURAL DIFFERENCES!"...they mean something!!!Believe me,they do!!!...
+Hanan Kuehnle In all cultures there are good and bad men and women. Thailand or any other Asian country is no exception. I think the challenge many have is the values of the opposite sex that they seem to have nothing in common with in their own country any more.
Retirecheap Btw....I love watching your videos!!!In february I am seriously thinking about coming over to "Chiang Mai"and doing a "TEFL"program teaching certificate course as well as studying the thai language.I've just recently spent six years living in south america(Peru!)while teaching esl and now I am wanting to be in a different part of the world.When I was in Peru,everybody told me...."Gringo,you're going to meet so many women..blah,blah,blah!"...Well,I did met many women but,I must say that I met many bad women that were interested in the following!!!Money and the possibilty to easily come back to the states etc.I would imagine that Thailand would not be any different???One thing is for sure,I am coming to experience a new culture and to learn to cook great thai food ha!ha!ha!ha!ha!I am good with languages due to the fact that I speak six myself and now I want to learn something unique like the tonal thai language!!!I am particulary not interested in meeting women there mainly because,I think I know exactly what the scenario is going to be like!Very similar to Peru,I am sure?On top of that,at least in Peru I spoke good fluent spanish but,in Thailand until I get a command of the language..."How would I even attempt to approach women there?"...I have nothing against western/american womren!!!Look a "B-tch/wh-re"is a "B-tch/wh-re"no matter what nationality she is......greek,american,thai or peruvian!You can find them worldwide!!!I plan to stay several years in Thailand but,I personaly don't ever see myeslf in a relationship with any thai woman because,I saw for my own personal experience what it was like in a developing third world country!!!Love your vidoes!!!..."Chiang Mai"seems like a nice place to live and work!Reminds me of the Peruvian jungle of Pulcalpa and Iquitos!!!...
+Hanan Kuehnle Nope things have changed here. Most women really don't need a gringo ..oops... Farang. They have money to get by on their own with the latest iPhone and even cars. But many of those educated ones are too old for Thai men to appreciate and seen as past their prime. So if you are patient and learn the language and socialize with educated women with good jobs you will have no problems. But as being part of the "family" their will be some expectations and obligations just like there are for the rest of the family members.
Hanan: Western women have to many expectations and make relationships difficult. Yes our mothers and grandmothers are of Western heritage. But things have changed so much even they wouldn't want to be young in todays world.
I been married to my Thai wife 8 years + and she is just fantastic.
It is never good to generalize. There are wonderful men and women everywhere and everywhere there are not so good people. I would not trade my Thai girl for anything in the world but I consider my self fortunate
Young educated Thai women with big overdrafts.

I am farang, I was in Thailand 1971-1973 USAF. The woman I married there is still at my side.
When someone gives you their heart, their culture, social status, and whatever other differences might arise will not alter their heart.
This is true whether she's from the east or the west.
be well
I can really appreciate the very positive remarks from below - thanks you guys it helps to hear something good .
as a younger expat living in Cha-am for about two years, I have to say that it is quite hard to find an educated woman here. There are not that many options for work around Cha-am for educated women and most of them are much better off going to work somewhere else (Bangkok, Hua Hin or other locations) instead of staying in Cha-am.
so they leave.
as I don't drink or care for bars, my two options left are markets or to meet them at their work somehow. you never see locals on the beach as they don't care about it.
2 years here and I never had a local girl approach me, not once.
Met a Thai woman and fell in love,she feels the same for me .No talk of money or anything along those lines. Seeing her again soon and wait to see what happens?
say you are poor, she will leave you.
Hi JC. Very interesting video. I am still working in the USA and my goal was to retire and travel to Thailand or the Philippines. However, I recently met a very nice Thai lady, here in the USA, who is very much like the type lady you described in this video. She is here on a work visa, age 49 (I am 63), middle class, educated, light color skin, slim, and very very nice. She also made it clear that she is looking for a relationship with an American. We met on a dating site, clicked immediately, and have both deleted our dating site profiles. She doesn't ask for money and is the most caring, loving, affectionate, person I have ever met. We go to church together and enjoy the same things and I can't say enough good things about her. However, I am being cautious because of a previous relationship, with a Latina, that tried her best to get as much from me as she could. She wants to stay and work here a bit longer, but eventually return to her home in Chiang Mai, where she has family, a home, car, etc. Because there is a restriction, regarding the work visa, she cannot return to the USA if she leaves this country, so this is preventing us traveling back to Thailand for now. Just curious about your thoughts on this. Thanks, John
Congrats John. All I will say is write down all your rules regarding a relationship with anybody else and stick to those rules and avoid a scarcity mentality and all will proceed naturally one way or another.
John S, my advice is GO for it! Get to know her better. Treat her well and see what happens. Retiring to Thailand can be done from $200 per month on up.
My studio apartment costs me 100 usd per month and utilities electric, water, etc another hundred (in the hottest part of the year).
My wife cooks, mostly so food is so cheap you would not believe me. When we go out to eat, 3 or 4 times a week we eat at local establishments so 2 nights ago dinner costed 250 thb with tip. The establishment owner is becoming a friend as we go there often and his son is waiter/bus boy/cook in training.... And I always tip the boy well. Can't help it, he works so hard I would feel guilty otherwise. This was dinner for two.
So I spend $300 a month to live I would be surprised. Yes I spend more than that, when you have more than a subsistence income you tend to upgrade your life.
My point is, if you are a little frugal and do not live in a tourist mecca life here is very inexpensive.
Chaing Mai is more expensive as far as I understand it, but even if it is TWICE as much... IE 600 a month, you stil can't beat it.
I lived in Asia for over 5 years and traveled for 10+ I spent a lot of time in the Philippines.. And I would not risk it. There are some very nice filipina but it is hard to find out the deeper issues. At least I found it so.
Stick with your Thai GF. She sounds great and probably is.
Philippines is good to visit but bad to retire because of hurricanes, cyclones, flooding and bad economy for the locals which equals high crime + corruption! Thailand is a way better choice to retire for expat worldwide!
My thai girlfriend doesn't want a local thai guy as she stated they treat them very bad and are constantly looking for girls on the side.
daveinthailand the say that every farang.
Most of them time its only because that Thai Girl wants a rich Guy who can affort Hotels , Cars, Partys and so on.
I am learning more and more each day I read these comments......
daveinthailand ,m Thai I will naver go with Thai man,
Their depend on worman, to take care of them,
Their have no honest,
Min wage in Thailand is 300 THB a day. NOT 165. Unfortunately, no enforcement unless complaints can be proven - and is made all the more difficult through casual employment agreements and private business records are notoriously inventive.
Really good vid. Nice to hear from a guy that isn't creepy and and always chatting about bar girls and the like.
There actually are a lot of them in Thailand but as you know bad news and sex sells when it comes to information and selling. Too bad because there's a lot of great people living here. That's one of the upsides of my member site. We have a whole large group of great people some of which already live in Thailand and their perspective adds to mine when it comes to great information.
First this is a very great video. I only have one complaint... and it is very common complaint of mine. My Thai wife is young, educated and a medical professional. Basically a middle class girl from a conservative family.
Her history is typical... Multiyear relationship with a Thai man... Who from early on was cheating on her. When she found out, bless her... She turned her back on all the plans they had made refusing to accept his excuses.
No fights, no drama just goodbye. Then shed tears at home. After a time... Looking for what she can do... But she did not want the same thing again.
Many many times I have heard Thai men talk about having a GF on the side... When they have a good wife who works hard for the family.
Thai women are very very practical in their intelligence. They want a stable home after marriage. They need a man who while the head of the household, listens to; her and defers to her when she is right. A calm friendly man who she can depend on as HER man.
The demand Love, kindness and fidelity. Everything else we can work out together... Obviously i am over simplifying. But the lack of fidelity by Thai men is why we farang are so valued by the middle class educated conservative women.
I joke with her that I need to be careful... or the King will have me arrested for stealing one of the crown Jewels...
That is how I see her and how I treat her... Because she deserves it.
Every time I up my game and show her more love.. the ROI is immense. She has never had the attitude of .. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR ME LATELY?
Perhaps my experience is unique but I don't think so.Her expectations of me were clear enough from the geti go... but I had to pay attention to see them. That is how I won her heart.
This isn't exclusive to Thai men. You just need to look at the history of Asian and Latin societies. Monogamy hasn't been one of their strong suits. Always try and look at things from outside of the Western set of eyes and you'll see things a lot differently. Doesn't mean those things are good or bad because those are just judgments from our own point of views. What you are doing is fulfilling needs that are not being fulfilled from within their own society which gives you a great opportunity.
Thanks for conveying that societal analysis. I'm now retired from an international profession, so have a fairly good grasp of favorable locations around the globe, from a societal, political, cultural and financial perspective. Contemplating a spot to settle down where my outlay will provide me the most comfortable, interesting, safe and stable lifestyle. Thailand checks a lot of boxes for me. As with many potential farangs, I'm also interested in finding my last love. So this study is encouraging. I'd very much like to find a beautiful, intelligent woman who is financially capable and still possesses "traditional" values. Lol... aim for the moon! 😉
another great video JC. I have to agree with your synopsis on this subject matter. My girlfriend is from Don Mueng and she is very wealthy (owns her own business). She accepts zero money from me and it is more a matter of the heart. I have been back and forth to thailand about 14 times in the past 2 years and feel i have a pretty good understanding of the culture now. I do not drink and never go to any of the typical ex-pat sites. You will most likely find me hanging around with the regular thai's. I met my girlfriend after my first thai girlfriend's relationship went south (and thank god it did). My girlfriend is fantastic and we talk every morning and night. I actually just got back from thailand about a week ago and lived at her house and made some trips down to Sichon with her and the kids. My thai is getting progressively better each day as we tend to feed off of each others conversations. I plan on moving to thailand next year permanently and i'm looking forward to this next chapter in my book of life. One thing i really would like to see you mention in one of your video's is when a thai woman says "i want you to take care of me and my family". To a foreigner when they hear this it is more of a matter of making sure she is happy where to a thai it literally means "take care of my family and their financial needs"..this is a huge difference. Last but not least my advice to anyone going to thailand is DO NOT fall in love with the first girl you meet. I made that mistake and chalk it up to a life experience. I do not regret anything with my first girlfriend, but in hindsight i wish i had taken my time..but again if that didn't happen i would never have met my current girlfriend (which we plan on marrying next year). Also i would like to say that if you just like your girl but not the culture then maybe it isn't for you. I love everything about thailand..the food..the culture..the weather (and it get's hot!!)..but most definately i love the people. I know of some who had not treated me fairly, but that is the smallest minority (maybe 1%)..but for the most part (especially if my girl is there) they reflect the respect you show them back on you. Once i get there permanently i'll be sure to look you up and treat you to a coffee.
Your A lucky guy . Am interested in how you can stay there full time and how old are you what are the hoops you have to through. Thx.
How did you guys meet?
How very true I women are being more liberated now than ever before when I lived in Thailand 50 years ago it was unheard of a Thai woman with the western man now it is very common
Finding someone with similar values....looks and intellectual compatibility is paramount...instead of thinking from below the belt line....
How do you introduce yourself to Thai women in the market place?
Some good points JC, and would be curious to hear your thoughts on cultural challenges in regards to western men who expect Thai women to be submissive and harmonious?
From what I observed, Thai women often seem to take the dominant role in a relationship, sometimes more so then in other Asian countries, and a lot of guys can't deal with that.
Shemp Howard Those will be some more of the bad stories we hear about!! I don't feel they are submissive but thank God they are harmonious. Many cultures in the world could learn a lot by their behavior.
Shemp Howard Women in poor countries don't have the luxury of waiting for a man to come and take care of things, is not about been dominant is about being assertive, being the one that take care of things. Is not that are trying to wear the pants in the house, is that their culture forces them to get up their butts and take care of Stuff.
You my friend are a wealth of information as I will be retiring in Thailand in a few years, keep up the great work !!
Did you ever retire in Thailand?
People need to work and make money but alot of people dont get it
Hi JC. I've been following you via U-Tube for some time now. I always enjoy your insight and perspective.
+Sno Bird Thank you SB 🐦
I like your 'There's Always An Options' hat. Where can I get one?
Dude the coolest intro music on TH-cam!!!
If I was a young man and looking for a wife, I'd be looking for a girl from the Far East. Japanese or Thai would be my choice.
Naman Buki interesting, I read an article a coup,e years ago about young Chinese men going to Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia to look for wives due to the relative rarity of Chinese women (due to years of aborted females with the "one child" rule)....
Pure-blooded doesn't exist. In China or anywhere.
off topic but.............and I am not the one doing this .........but.............what is your opinion of a 62 yr. old expat traveling around Thailand on his motorcycle with no health insurance and living on a little pension & SS month to month..and how wise do you think that is???????............should there be any safety/security issues to be concerned about like getting mugged/etc???????????
jim nichols I wouldn't be as concerned about getting mugged as I would be about taking a header off of the motorbike. It isn't a matter of if you will crash, it is a matter of when and how bad. I think that pretty much every farang that I know who rides a motorbike over there has layed it down at some point. Also, there are inexpensive health care plans that could be purchased there.
jim nichols Get a major medical policy that includes motorcycle accidents (some don"t) and go for it. Life is short. Play hard but do so with some sense of caution and common sense.
+retirecheapjc Is a Bupa policy that covers hospitalization only good?
+Traveling man "Only good"?? Maybe you meant "any good". There are many Thai medical insurance companies with many different plans and payments along with BUPA. The good thing about BUPA is if you get covered before 60 years old you are grandfathered in keep coverage until you die. Most stop covering by 70 years old.
Correction: is it sufficient?
hi jc
love your videos on Thailand and thinking of retiring there.I have medical worry and need medication for high blood and colestrol. Is it possible to do a video on getting medication in Thailand.cheers mate.
andrew cook All that type of information is in the members site. But basically you can get everything over the counter without a prescription except sleeping pills, pain killers and hypnotic drugs.
In my experience, women (and men) react to the same relationship signals wherever, only difference being that cultural variety colors perception......
i like your wireless microphone , did you buy it in Thailand ?
Some of the Thai ladies that one can meet in a Thai bar, may have come from poor farming families. The salary she earns may support her farming family. In a place where females have been oppressed by poverty, and cultural issues, it can be common to see very old men with very young women. It is accepted in Thailand. Here, in the States, a man would be arrested for being a pedophile.
The more of your videos I see, the more I wish you were my best friend. I love your attitude and wisdom. I have learned so much from you that now I feel obligated. :)
I'm friends with a school teacher and therefore college educated and 32 years old. I get a good morning every day, great conversations, she is constantly sending pictures, she asks me if I ate all the time and if I ate enough. So very strange. They are out there for sure. She is from the Isaan area and very much unlike other ladies from other provinces. She truly wants to learn about my culture and way of life. She has never asked me what I do for work or the home with which I live. They aren't all bar girls for sure. She has a lighter skin and really is pretty. She does have a child which puts her in a bad light with Thai men. Thai men often leave their girl after getting them pregnant and few help with child support and they drink like fish. There are some wonderful traditional ladies out there that would make for a wonderful relationship. I met her on Thai Friendly.
Yes it's too bad that we don't hear more about the great women and great relationships but mostly about the bad ones. Bad news sells. Thanks for your comment.
I admire your respect of the culture and truth searching.
Thank you Craig. I always keep in my mind that I am a guest in their country and by being so I need to be courteous and respectful of their culture and also feel it's my obligation to try and inform those that might think about living here as to how to fit in and stay happy.
The word "Farang" originates from a French word, meaning foreigner. During the French occupation of Vietnam
Many theories. And will do!
Not sure about that. The language of Iran also uses farang as an adjective to describe some things connected to Europe. Strawberry is "tut farangi", or European berry, as one example.
I can attest to what JC is saying... I met a university educated Thai lady who has worked for the Thai government for more than 20 years... She is considered "hiso" in Thai society as she is upper middle class by Thai standards... We have now been together for more than 5 years and it's the best relationship that I have ever had... I do live in Thailand, so no long distance relationships... They never work IMHO...
Congrats and may you have a long lasting, fulfilling relationship. Happy 2020!
Hi
What does she do as my wife has been a government officer as well 21 years so far?
what do you guys suggest to a 25yo guy who want to marry a genuine good thai lady? where about to meet them?
interesting ideas equally introduced into prospective relationships between women and men and with this level of respect for each other opens the door to togetherness as lasting partners in love with each other and not just marriages of convenience.
Good video. I did have a smile on my face hearing the "stats". Successful women usually want to find a man at their level of success or higher, usually men don't really care for that, we find a woman and we don't care whether she cleans toilets or is a CEO of a Bank. Success is often measured by how much money you make or have. One would think if successful women are really interest in love and not money, then why don't they marry a Thai? I still hold to my belief that it is still a money thing. In this research, who are these successful women marrying? Professional Farangs? or regular Joes? There are always a two side to every story too, maybe successful Farang is looking for a successful Thai woman in order to eliminate some of the suspicion that is only about money.
H Max you are entitled to YOUR opinion. After all that is what a "belief is... A strongly held opinion. Kind of like religion.. doesn't need facts only faith.
Successful women the world over want a "successful" man. My Thai wife considers me to be so, even though I am far cry from wealthy. I am living on Social Security for gods sakes. Yea I worked hard and was very successful in my career, however I was financially destroyed by my ex compounded by Multiple Sclerosis.
She is the first woman in my 58 years who is an actual PARTNER. Again, I consider her to be in the top 10% but that hardly makes her unique.
Show me ONE MAN on any of these forums why talks all this negative crap WHO DID NOT MARRY A GOLD DIGGING BAR SLUT WHORE.
JUST ONE. I read these forums, I trace the stories.
Gold digging whores (reference to Bill Burr) are interchangeable vis a vis culture or nationality.
What I have not seen on any of these kinds of forums regarding Thai women, is ONE man talking about such shitty treatment from an Thai woman who is not a former bar slut whore.
great perspective friend, happy days mate. Luke, SA
Thanks
Another great, and info packed video. I finally subcribed, sorry it took me a couple of weeks.
Hi JC how did you become an expert on Thailand? Tell us more about your background.
Background noise did not add to your presentation
Great information!!! Thanks!
good vids JC
I love your body of work. This is an awesome video. thanks for sharing this information. It's very well articulated and honest. I am joining your membership next month. Thanks for the great work.
See you on the inside soon!
thanks for info but a bit long winded how you explain things
Thanks for the info i liked it alot , I have always liked asian culture and understand the obligation you must keep when having a wife of their culture. It is difficult to meet someone due to the fraudulant web sites and crap going around..
hi jc,liking your vids,just subcribed. :-)
Wealthy Thai women will want even wealthier men. You said it yourself the man has "obligations" which means he is expected to pay and increase her standard of living. None of this is wrong but couching it in furry language suggests the financial element is less important than it really is.
Interesting how you took my Young, educated and turned it into "WEALTHY"...... Go back and see if I said that.
+retirecheapjc Ok young educated Thai women want wealthier men than if they were uneducated.
American women call this having standards.
And the rest still applies you said it yourself but used different words. Not sure there is any real disagreement between us just perception.
I did watch the vid again you said the women are going to. "More affluent Thai women are going for farangs not for financial reasons" 4:44. You may have been quoting an third party source.
You did spend a lot of effort saying the Thai women are not as economically dependent. You mention women who are able to "take care of themselves". And you mentioned middle class Thai women specifically 4:20. You may not have said the word wealthy but it is certainly implied. Now that I did re-listen to the video it seems undeniable.
Not really. I know a lot of wealthy Asian women who would be more happy to have a guy of average means provided he is genuinely kind, sincere and understanding - these thing can become far more valuable attributes when money is no longer an issue. Of course there are exceptions to this, but often true from what I've seen.
Interesting posts and responses. I was just curious of what people think of Thai women and came across this clip. I am a Thai woman; I really don’t think it is true and applied to me. It is interesting to hear what people think though. I agreed many Thai women, especially ones with less fortunate, are looking for farangs.
+Tito To Yes you are correct. And that has changed over the years due to Thai women now not having to be seen in the dating process out with different Farang. You know what other Thais would say right? And you might be able to attract a nice Thai suitor that won't go out and get a mia noi and I hope that is the case for you. But as you know this behavior seems to be the norm once the 1st wife hits a certain age. But by no means is this 100% going to happen. The demographics prove it out that Thai women are looking for options and it seems that the Farang culture is different in how the men treat their significant others. But nothing ever will apply to all people no matter what. There are demographics and statistics that apply to the Farang that come to Thailand that don't reflect well on us as a whole and surely they don't apply to every Farang either right? Thank you so much for your comment. It is always good to hear what others think as well.
I guess I was a trend setter then (Haha). I never wanted to date Farangs even I was asked by many of them. Nothing against Farangs, just not attracted to me. As far as I see new Thai generation, I don't see Mia Noi in the process either. Or maybe it is only applied to my friends.
+Tito To I wish you and your friends only the best. There are great Thai guys out there and I hope you get one that treats you great and stays with you forever.
Maybe better to link to the study than just stand there reading it.
Great information as always, JC! But this has also been the case in the Philippines, Cambodia and other Asian countries. You do see more and more younger Asian women with younger caucasian men than the case was 10-20 years ago.
I have a successful educated Thai girlfriend who is middle class..... certainly beats my bar girl ex!!!
Ian Jack After a while you begin to realize that having a bar-girl for a GF is nothing more than having an employee that sucks baht out of your pocket, along with other things...
I want to learn to make $$ online, so I can travel and live anywhere... suggestions anyone?
I've also thought of doing ESL teaching there...
Getting a TEFL certificate is probably one of the easiest ways to hang out in Thailand and make a difference as well. There are a lot of digital nomads hanging out in Thailand these days especially in Chiang Mai. I think only a small percentage of them make any money though! But these days online income is a great option.
I realize this an old video but I wanted to know where to find this study (or an updated one). I'm wondering what the stats would be for Thai women wanting men of other foreigner races? It seems that study only focused on white men?
When dating a Thai woman, always have enough money for the vet bill when the family village buffalo gets sick lol
JC where do you buy your lovely shirts?
If you go to the retirecheap.Asia website (the link is in the description) you'll see our shop link where you can buy the shirts.
@@EscapetoThailand Thanks. I thought you buy them from Thailand. Is it available in Thailand?
A two minute video took 13 minutes
Yes, probably better you go look for those two-minute videos. You'll be able to watch 100 of them in one day! Oh, I forgot my videos are just about what I'm talking about but what you're seeing and you wouldn't see too much in two minutes would you?
is this your own research and findings you have made or is it you just looking on the internet and finding a survey that has been done or taking someones opinions the content of it and how you are reading it comes across as it not of your own research and knowledge
Was a survey.
your own survey or someone else ?
From a university study in Thailand.
Your videos is very good. But I recommend why not putting in adds in your videos? U can get some good money. approx 1- million views in the us could give you approx. 1000 dollars
+wallenbergphoto You mean the video ads? There are static ads already.
+retirecheapjc ahaaa I saw it now haha. I guessed I missed it on some videos. Smart choice. Keep up the good things, / Daniel / Sweden/thai.
I’m happy livein Canada, m Thai with the west bast life now, works and retired
Yes I would like to meet some one, but not Thai,man, ka,
The economy in Thailand SUCKS for the working class Thai. If you a guy from abroad with lots of CA$H - Thailand is a great place!
+Dexter Speights II I'm not sure where you get your facts from Dexter. Thailand's economy is booming and has been for the last 10 years. There's an exploding middle-class in Thailand driving a consumerism boom here. People's lives have been upgraded a lot especially compared to other Southeast Asian countries.
Hi jc
I also like your hat I will be in Pattaya 9 February to 12 of march .know a man from my town who
moved to thiland and has a business called rich an poor man will be looking him up.
hope to run into you frankt
Also the English translation of Farang is Guava, how ironic 5555
true hahah maybe cause was imported by portuguese sailor (like chili, which is big in southeast asia, was imported from portuguese from central and south america)
I talke with Women + Husbands ! I am Married dont Drink + have both sexes Friend ! But I never yous Thai Boys to work mostly Burma Lady for work !
can you translate that in english please?
wJC whats a good site for looking for the type of woman you are describing in your video,?
Contact me personally.
hi please forward your contact info , to follow up with you.
Either PM me here through TH-cam or use the contact for at the website linked in the video description.
I met the gal I'm talking to from Thai Friendly. She's a school teacher therefore educated, has never asked me what I do for work nor anything financially personal. She texts me good morning, good night, asks if I ate and if I ate well. Trust me, it's unlike any woman I've ever met and it's genuine. Get LINE app on your phone. You will get a TON of responses from multiple ladies and it will blow your mind.
I think minimum wage is about 400 baht a day
Damn your bag of options just gets bigger with every video :-) But what about the option to purchase a hat.... I like .... I want .... I buy... :-)
I am 68, personally I don't want a younger woman, they are jealous and a pain in the ass. I would prefer an older more mature woman who is interested in building a strong relationship. With the roper care, love, respect and an interest in her likes and dislikes I think love will follow. A good relationship takes work no matter the country or culture as I can attest to after being married to my Panamanian wife for 32 years.
Why you like durian so much?
I had a taste and it was like a sweet onion, but without the strong taste.
But I don't understand why some people hate it too.
You never talked about children. Science used to say a woman wants a baby with current so/husband that cements relationship. Other societies look down on biracial kids. Many countries women have kids back home with family. In mexico the kids go to church orphanage if new man does not want kids. Here expectation support kids and parents. So talk about abortion or expect kids. home
That's covered in a different video. This one was about a different class of women besides bar girls appreciating what foreign men (Not all) can bring to their lives.
JC, thanks for all the great videos. I will be in Chiang Mai in September. Question, are there Black expats there? In this video, you are speaking of Thai women with White men. What about Thai women and Black American men? Just curious about this, l have been to Bangkok several times and saw many Black men with Thai women. Is it similar in Chiang Mai? Thanks for any insight. A fan.
Leon Scott I'd like to know your opinion on this too, J.C.
Thai women generally prefer caucasian men, but by no means exclusively.
Leon Scott hey leon...check out jubril agoros channel...he is a black American who went to Thailand and said he had a great time and he had no problem with thais...in chiang mai aswell
Leon Scott Hey Leon, a lot of my Thai friends (women) are always asking me when I will bring "Chocolate man" for them from US. So don't really think it's an issue about being black. You just see more white men there than black. Actually it's kind of funny sometimes in some places (especially around Pattaya), I've never seen so many old white men before in one place. :D Thai people are generally very friendly and very laid back and don't trip on skin color.
Thais don't dislike darker skin people, but they do consider light skin attractive. Look at all the skin whiteners at the drugstore and the actors on tv
Do they have decaf?
I think the low pay is 300 for day last I here like 7mouths ago wen I was there
andy farm Yes the minimum wage is 300 Baht a day. BUT Minimum Wages in Thailand AVERAGED 126.76 THB/Day from 1973 until 2014
yes but now its 300 so not bad I just think its hard for wester people u live low class I do it I'm 30 I go thai stay 7 mouths every year I spend like mebe 800dollers a mouth that's my rent two =)
rent is 110usa dollars a mouth
He's right,the lady I was with last night it was her FIRST TIME! wHEN WE MARRY NEXT WEEK i WILL HAVE BEEN HER only customer...

robert chandler customer ? First time ????
You think a Virgin sold herself for Sex ?
Lol
I think where you're travelling to is important. if you go bar you will meet bar girl. if you go country you will meet country. peoples are different. there're a lot of good thai men out there but also bad and i don't like too. also farang men some are so rude called me bitch fat. some r very good i know. these days trend of thai women are change some. they like korean man japnese man ..blah blah blah For me. i really like to try yung farang man lol? but i don't get easily maybe just dreaming because i know in the end might be thai or asian men. talk to easily.
Some bs report
Well it seems like older foreigner will face the background very soon -:)
Anyway how/what would Thailand do economically if, let's pretend there would come no foreigners to visit or live in the country????
Globe255 we reached that point with the Coronavirus. Time will tell.😥😢
@@evelinholmes6401 maybe he is in the background now.
If you are unable to speak decent Thai then forget it.
I have a lot of members who have very fulfilling relationships with Thai women with some having been married 14 years or more and they don't speak a lick of Thai language. So I think your generalization doesn't hold true. But of course it would always help to speak the language of the country in which your living at least a little bit.
300 baht is the min wage.
+Cloak Dagger Yes but many don't get paid that amount when they work for a sole proprietorship. Only when they work for companies.
I like the videos.
stopped watching 2 yrs ago. JC is loving that thai food+25 lbs
+Thomas Wright Yes Tommy I have an upcoming part in a movie and trying to put on another 25 for the part.
good one!
What the hell is a farang?
What Thai people call Caucasians.
Thai call foreigners
falang pay my bills support me
love you na ka
Hummm interesting that you emphasized western men as being white.
I have to be honest and tell you this is an example of exactly why I don't want to live in Western countries. Everything is taken so literally as opposed to looking at what the intention was of what I was saying. If you pick life apart like this you always be able to find examples of what doesn't meet your own personal set of rules. My suggestion would be to loosen up a little bit and allow people the freedom to express themselves without scrutinizing every word in the meanings they have for you personally. It'll make your own life and everybody else's life a lot easier in the long run. I hope you take this the right way because it wasn't meant any other way.
Lets see.. In the USA blacks are 13 % of the population. So when I generalize about american men, should I not focus on the 87%?
This is one of the reasons I love thai culture. Dude, here we are all farang. Said with a smile and a laugh by the Thai
from 16 August Bangkok Post www.bangkokpost.com/news/special-reports/656852/go-west-young-woman
Michelangelo Buonarroti Yes another spin on the same research. The more media outlets cover this story the more it will propagate this as a trend.
It may become a trend, but I do not think it is a fad. More choices for smart, educated, and moral Thai women will lead to more long term relationships with men from Western countries. It is inevitable, and Thai men have made it so.
