Way too much to list ... so just some of my regular items (7-11)

... sweet tooth fix at 7-ll;  cheesecake, black forest cake, various pandan or pinapple rolls/puffs/eclairs from 20 & up, but <40

... same with ready made meal for 35-39-40.  Meatier ones 45 & 49.

... the whole single piece ice cream case

... garden salad

... all the toasties (bread or croissant)

... BBQ Bao buns 2 or 3 depending on size

... a crappy can of local beer, is still < 40, I think ... NO THANKS

... Full Moon wine thing, still <40 ?

... I'd be remiss if didn't state, add 2 baht, and get the Double Pork Cheeseburger :cheesy:

... Chicken curry puffs, where available 10 baht ea, more flavors besides chicken

... coffee/tea, instant or fresh, hot or cold

... pack of bologna

... Royal bread for the bologna sandwich

... some chips to add to it, or on the side

 

Of course street food ... unlimited amount of items, a few notables

... bag of ready made salad

... sweet tooth fix, cakes, donuts, etc

... skewers of various meats, 10 baht & up

... dumplings or gyozas

... prepared take away dishes, or curries in a bag.

... various sliced fruits 20 & up, size dependent

 

Almost a full length ride on the BKK rail lines (BTS/MRT) as i think highest fare is still 45 baht.  That's if you get off and don't simply hop back one, to one station before you boarded, then 15 baht.   Cheap sight seeing without the PM2.5 exhaust.

You can travel 5 times on a red bus in Bangkok. Travel three times in a boat along the Chao Praya River. Not far from my home, they sell pork noodle soup with meatballs, middle size plate costs 20 baht. 12 average-size potatoes at the market. These are just a few things from the long list🙂😁

Just think, any 5 of those in the day, would give you enough substance to live on.

5 X ฿40 = ฿200 X 30 days = ฿6000 monthly food budget.

 

Best part, no dishes to wash :coffee1:

 

฿3-4k for your room & utilities, and you have a ฿10k a month living budget.

฿10k X 12 = ฿120k a year ... $3350 USD

 

Trying living on that back in the ol' USA :cheesy:

 

And we need to bring in ฿800k for a retirement visa/extension ...

... Livin' large :coffee1:  The non-American Dream :cheesy:
