Depends on how little you're prepared to live on. I can live in Thailand on 20,000 Baht a month easily. Takes me just one sale of a 20,000 Baht product and my bills are paid for the entire month. It's not hard to get that one sale either. I just keep calling and e-mailing people until somebody pays up. Usually takes me less than a week to get a client. Simple. Anybody can live in Thailand because the bar is set so low.

Well youv'e nailed the buisiness acumen needed here then , 20k a month for your buisiness .

Of course less your social security payments , accountants fees , visa costs ( ie. Non B , WP ) overheads for running the buisiness , the list goes on and on ... and on.

For F sake that wouldn't even cover the gas bill

You my friend are a joke to reply to this OP.

Download the app , eatigo , many choices that w7ill come within the price range and location you want

^^ agree m8 , been a "local" since being in Los from 2004.

Even had there 10% card they gave out in 2005 being honured untill i lost the damn thing :-),

So we may well have met without knowing :-)

^^ i know its gonna be sooooooo sad -

Nana Soi 4 , Morning Night , Christmas Day with a buddy.

Flying Up from Phuket just for it and can't bloody wait .

Go enjoy your stuffed turkeys and cranberry sauce , im gonna have a great day with an old friend and to be honest get drunk off my ass

Then if your not able to network well enough to teach a few English lessons , how in the hell do you expect to own and run a succesfull buisiness ?.

Better you just look for a job

Are you asking for $$$$ , if so may I wish good luck

Tops have them here in Phuket , yes I know not BKK but perhaps they carry the same stock across most of the branches ?

Anyway a possability

There is an understanding between the buisiness owners currently operating and the locals that no such place is welcome

Always puzzles me that some guys are willing to spend 5k for a months accomadation but will pay a couple of k for a nights " entertainment "

Could you not just call.into a local opticions and buy some ?

Well bucking the trend , I actually enjoy an afternoon there from time to time.

Hope you guys let me leave next time I go there.

Is it like hitting your head against a brick wall, it feels so good when you stop?

But I also enjoy an afternoon Tea in some of the finer hotels , that is if again thats ok by you ?

As a good friend has said to me many many times .....

What you think about me is your concern not mine , im just enjoying my time here , you ?

Siam Paragon is in Thailand Right ?

Just Asking Hans , but maybe your correct if you substitute Phuket for Thailand

Well bucking the trend , I actually enjoy an afternoon there from time to time.

Hope you guys let me leave next time I go there.

Recently a work colleague of my wife's cousin was in Phrae on business

when he pulled into a fuel station to top up,as he was leaving the station he noticed plastic protruding from the flap covering the fuel cap so soon as he was able he pulled over and investigated and found a plastic bag containing Yaba pills stuffed in there,he quickly discarded of them in some trash on the roadside and continued on his way. A ways up the road he was stopped at a police road block and the car and himself searched thoroughly and after not finding any thing they became rather agitated with the lead officer getting straight on his mobile to persons unknown,eventually they had to let him go as they had nothing on him. When discussing this with work colleagues from the district they told him they had heard of local police working with fuel station attendants to plant the pills and the police would pull them over and demand

30-40,000 baht in order to drop the charges. Not sure if this is happening in other provinces but something to remember when fuelling up your vehicle in the future

Load of crap ,

Myths are alive and well I see

How and why the hell did you manage to drag up this post from 2014 just to write your post ??
