khall64au Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 How do you find the cost of living... those who live on Phuket as opposed to say Bangkok or other popular parts of the Kingdom? Personally, I think the cost of living rises significantly by the month- esp. during the past 2 yrs. Food, fuel, and other 'essentials' are a lot more expensive than just a year or two ago......... yet salaries remain the same. Any thoughts or comments?

Firefan Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 I have the same experience in Bangkok, inflation have been much more than official nos report. A retired friend keeps track of every Baht in MSN Money and his personal inflation rate have been about 10%/year the last 2 years. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom yum goong Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 to be fair i haven't really noticed the difference between here and Bangkok. I think i spend a lot more money in Bangkok just because there is a lot more to do there. Agree about the salaries though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
