I don't care where you live in Asia ,how many of you have lived on 600,000 baht the last 12 months ,that's average 50,000 baht a month I say this because I'm wondering those who (are retired) spending more than a million baht a year what are you wasting it on

Thankyou !???? -
Im 62 and I just will take a year off from my work to find myself I'm thinking going to Thailand for a few months to live in a temple with monks,can that be done? Somewhere away from life, quiet rural away from people etc .I had a workmate years ago go through a bitter divorce,he went to some place in the Philippines some island I don't know where but lived by himself for a few months . Have you ever had to do this or done this ? I'm also thinking Scotland highlands ? By myself in a cabin in the country mountains Where is a place where on can find their life

Philippines is a yes & no place for retirement. It depends on where & what you need close. I'm looking more Palawan or Dumaguete, I couldn't fathom living in Angeles City , I went there last July , unfriendly people.too much traffic ..hotter than hot , junkies everywhere -

Yes a lot of British people retire to Tasmania it seems, I guess because it reminds them of Scotland. -

True , I had that feeling in Angeles city , I felt unsafe ,no one did bother me but just strange people looked aggressive,has no smiles on their faces Yes without sounding racist I did find Filipino much much different to Thai people,they seemed more aggressive,maybe it was my imagination,but they seemed a bit rude pushing in front of you in shops etc -

They have uber / Grab there nowadays, As I'm getting older I think I have to rule out Cities An island somewhere would suit me , a condo or house near the beach , near shops ,not too expensive, I'm not into Phuket or Bali though Done Cebu in the Philippines too crowded for me too much traffic ,but strangely some farangs luv it,met a few Aussies in Cebu who go there every year ,not sure why there was nothing for me Maybe I should look at the island on the bottom of Australia called Tasmania????? -

Maybe, I never been to Siem Reap. I wonder if anyone retired to Phomn Penh here Still not many guys on here who live in the Philippines yet I saw hundreds of farangs when I went there Yes Bali has a bad image ,I think of young shirtless drunken tattooed Aussies -
I like this city , any farangs live here ? I only saw one

As this is now not just a Thailand forum I want to know who has retired to other Asian Countries and either happy or sad there? Anyone here in the Philippines who has or had picked Dumamagette,seems to be the number 1 retirement area for farangs . Anyone picked Cambodia to retire ,I know a guy from my work last year who retired at 63 to Siem Reap but I wasn't close to him so lost contact Strangely Bali seems to becoming popular with Australian retirees Tell me where you chose to finish out your life or you tried and it wasn't to your pleasure
