Pattaya57 Posted Saturday at 10:15 PM Share Posted Saturday at 10:15 PM Speaking of wine, that's why I moved to Thailand. I have a Jacob's Creek Sav Blanc wine addiction and it only costs $8 a bottle at my local ($6 from Dan Murphy's if I want to drive). In Thailand the same bottle costs near $30 (700 baht) so I don't go near the stuff and drink 60 baht Singha's instead 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess Canada does come ahead in something. I never paid a cent to see a doctor, but I am a pensioner. I go every 5 months for check-up and new prescriptions.

KhunHeineken Posted Monday at 06:02 AM Share Posted Monday at 06:02 AM 14 hours ago, still kicking said: How many Australian doctors have you seen and how many carers or nurses? No public doctors. I maintain private health insurance in Australia, should a catastrophic illness / injury happen. Eg. cancer. I'll return to Australia for private treatment, with the insurance company paying. Once again, you are living on a shoe string budget in Australia, but passing it off on here as a great lifestyle. I think your lifestyle would be better in Thailand on the pension, like so many other members here, but your Thai missus is wearing the pants and you are locked into Australia.

The member bangs on about a great lifestyle in Australia on the aged pension. If it's so good back there, why aren't all the Aussie pensioners living back there, and not just those in Thailand, but everywhere, including places like Bali etc?
