Is Thailand Value for money

That's because you are in Thailand. If you want the other 95% of Canadian food, you know where to go.

 

It is not about Canadian food. Thailand advertises itself being so diverse. People here just do not know how to cook. I realized this during my first visa runs to Malaysia and Laos. Even Pad Thai is far superior in Vientianne than anywhere in Thailand.

That is really the big draw for most right? Face it Thailand is filled with middle to low class sexpats who could not pull anything close in any other country other than another poor country where basically your feeding off their poverty. Sure they see it as doing the girls a favor right?

 

Really?

Personally I just think it's nice to see constantly pretty females.

Last time I was "back home" I saw lots of ugly and/or fat and/or old women. Imagine you have a nice coffee and there are maybe twenty people in the shop and not even one pretty female - in Thailand that is seldom.

And then the attitude of those western women. No, I am really not interested in them. And I am sure they are not better in NY or LA or Berlin or London or wherever.

People with real money (at least US$ 10m+) live in the Carribbean or other nice places. Thailand is "ok" for us single digit non-pensioned millionaires because it allows us to get a glimpse of what life as a real money millionaire can be like.

 

1 million US$ is frankly f-all in today's western world, easily achieved by anyone with even only half a brain who starts investing in their late teens/early 20s.

Yeah, I've done that, it's not a good idea. Yes, the beaches in the Caribbean are the best in the world, but you quickly get tired of a beach, no matter how great it is. And culturally the Caribbean nations are very limited and can't compare with Thailand.

Me too. I truly dislike Thai food unless it is from a place like Savoey.

 

And it is not that Western food is expensive. I can not even find 5% of stuff that is available in Canadian supermarket.

 

Can you name an example of the 95% of Canadian food stuffs you cannot find in Thailand?

 

Several examples would be even better.
