Cost Of Living

[Boon Mee]

Dakhar, 300,000 Thai baht a month is an obscene amout. Remember, most Thais living in the country are living on only 3,000 baht per month! I would hazzard a guess that most expats are living on less than 100,000 baht per month, many on less than 50,000 per month. Blimey! 300,000 baht per month and you are superstar status!

Obscene money it's "70 billions THB" for Shin.

300 000 THB for an executive working for a multinational, where is the problem ?

If this amount in THB appears shocking, convert it in euro = 6300 euros.

Cheap.

And he's not getting a housing allowance or car and has to pay his own insurance if I read it right.

No, 300k baht is definitely middle-class (farang).

Retirement money is another story.
