Don't come and say, none of your business, of course it is not anybodies business.

Forums are mostly anonymous anyway, so who cares.

Vote or don't

I live of around 20.000 baht and have a very nice single life in Pattaya.

I drink on occasion with Thai friends, don't do the bar scene much anymore and hookers well definitely outgrown that.

Of course sometimes more is spent, due to visa or illness or other unforeseen things, but this is about DAILY living costs

Married, so count me out.

Honestly ... I really want to tick the last box ... sounds like fun!

But, I can't even tick the first box because that's double my expenses.

I bemoan the loss of the Dude .. he's so good at these Poll things ... he would have supplied more options.

Admirable effort though ...

Oh heck, just for fun ... I'm gonna tick the last box ... don't tell MissFarmGirl though! ...

Wondering how whereustay/pp mcready will vote.

Is there no DoorMat option?

The day I don't do the bar scene and drink with Thais, I'm out.

Edit to add Im not an expat. Still only 39.

Being an expat has age conditions attached ?

You're talking about the legendary JT. What happened to him?

Was he sent to the great archive in the sky? I hope not. I always thought he was quite good. At least he wasn't one of those sicko jealous guys.

about 80k a month ,but i am married with a son in uni .

The problem is the 'single' bit.

Maintenance of which is as difficult as maintenance of the consequences of failing to do so.

Yeah sorry if I had to live on 20k p/m here I would be out. I dont know how you guys do it. 20k on the weekend is gone in 1 day.

I work harder here then back home but live a good lifestyle.

Eeks. This had me thinking. I adds up my debit card cash atm withdrawals for May as that was a quieter month for me. Gay and partnered and don't go,out clubbing.

350,000 baht. Yikes!!

We all maintain different life styles. Who cares who spends what. OP looks like you have too much time on your hands.

my penis is over three feet long

I'm very sorry for you, must be impossible to get sex at 20.000 or 100.000+ baht

My best guess is the anonymous voters are maybe the honest ones.

It only has 3 100.000+ ones and more honest 20-40K baht ones.

Just a startup for the weekly newbie question:

HOW MUCH DO I NEED TO LIVE IN THAILAND

When I worked in Bangkok my salary was X and banked, my accommodation was $1800 for serviced apartment and about $2000 / $2500 on going out, shopping / food / clothes, weekends away, some months might not go anywhere some months might fly back to the uk. Just an average.

So about 115,000 to 125,000 baht per month.

For me this is a good standard of living and what I hope to achieve for retirement or more so I can continue to enjoy business class flights and such (25 years left to get there). I wouldn't spend that kind of money in the uk as I have my own place and of course the salary is much less and no standard allowances

At that time I was single. I'm now married so spending habits will change when kids come

It was about 20k but I think it's gone up a bit in the last year. I'm on tourist visas for another couple of years so have to leave and re-enter every 90 days (after 30 day extension) to activate a new entry and I now just fly to Penang for 2 days rather than doing it by road. I guess it would be around 25k.

I'm planning on £2-3k per month (100-150k) when I retire in 5yrs, I'm hoping that's going to leave some in savings each month tho for a rainy day.

I'm keeping houses in Thailand and UK, not sure what to do with the others yet.

Wondering how whereustay/pp mcready will vote.

I can't quote an OP but I can from his personal OP ... whereustay-is-back-in-the-house ...

Sorry, given a time-out for profanity and discussing prostitution. Now I'm back and ready to go.......but sorry, the curfew was just lifted and I'm headed home in 6 hours for a rest so no troll topics tonight. Just wanted to say hi to Heavy Drinker and American Thai angry dude......new topic coming shortly!!!!!

My spending is negligible...hers however...is unbelievable...our-of-control...and requires scrutiny...

I am single,don't drink &don't smoke and have no interest in bars and football. I eat Thai food and spend my days out in the sun.I spend every month 7,500 baht in total - rent(4000),food,water,trains,water,electric,mobile etc(3,500) cheap simple life in the sunshine...

my spending varies depending on how many recyclable plastic bottles i find in the bins that month

speaking of spending , any one tell me what 2 fillings and deep clean with a BKK dentist would cost, any recommendations would be a great help.

I reckon you would get change out of Bt 2,000.

Need details, PM me.

EDIT ... this guy is cheaper then mine.

Bt 200 for a clean ... fantastic price! I can't match that.

Fillings start at 400 baht, depending on the size and materials used.

If you get the dentist to do the fillings the clean will be done for free.

Directly opposite Big C in On Nut are two dentists who offer these prices.

A clean is about 200 baht.

I am spending more than i am earning

Poor choices. If you own your housing then your number will be very different than someone paying monthly rents.
