I live the same life in Thailand as I did in the UK.
Nice 3 bedroom house @ 210 pounds/month (mortgage), electricity and gas under 15 pounds/month.
English food and drink every day (cooked by me in my home).
Transport very cheap, car and m/c tax/MOT/fuel around 20% of the cost in the UK.
Not to mention the much younger woman in my bed every night, a woman who wouldn't even talk to me in the UK.
Back in 2016 I was living in a pals London bedsit, cost him 600,000 pounds + fees.
In the UK for the same money, I wouldn't even get a room in a house share with Somali/Afghan refugees.
