Look, I lived in Thailand many years and went back to Australia broke. I don't have any income anymore apart from my OAP I don't have my superannuation anymore which I got paid out moving to Thailand. Also sold my business which I had for 22 years. I am not blaming Thailand I might have made some bad discissions, but I can't complain about Australia. I have not paid electricity for a number of years (yes, I am not in the east) and yes prices went up but that happens in every country. I still travel to Thailand ones or twice a year living on just my OAP. My Thai wife owns 2 houses, so I get my full single pension (we live separate, but we are not apart.) I am happy here and have been for many years. For me it is still the land of milk and honey, maybe the younger generation don't agree, but we didn't agree with the generation prior to us as well.
