Malaysia Affordable Luxury 🎉

No pool though

No pool though

I am going to retire in Malaysia 🎉

It’s withheld at a higher rate, not taxed at a higher rate.

That depends on the lifestyle, in my early 50's now, if I can get to at least $3K in monthly pension plus at least $100K extra savings for emergency. I doubt that I can get it by late 2025 or early 2026 to retire in Thailand for good.

Mate, those cash requirements for getting retirement visas in Malaysia are well beyond what most westerners can afford. Why would the Malaysian Government do this? That's the question that needs to be discussed here!

Good vlog!

Why is the room price quoted in Chinese Yuan and not in Thai Baht? The owner is Chinese now?

Good information

Malaysia would be the country i would love to retire. Though as a low income Australia worker. The cost of money upfront, is only for the well off. To retire in Malaysia, you must have large amount of cash in a secured Malaysian bank account. A retired income monthly, also if you as a foreigner, need to invest in property ownership of a higher value properties. So not for a lot of average income. Though to be honest, Malaysia is a great choice,if you have the cash 😊

Nice, but I suggest doing one video per topic, with examples. For example, one video just on health care costs & insurance (and examples). Another could be renting (and examples). A big need will be nursing homes as the majority of people in America, Canada, Australia and the UK are middle age or older...nursing homes are expensive AND terrible in these countries! Any options in Malaysia (and examples)?

Can you please suggest? Is this a good time to visit Pattaya in October month? Is this rain over there?

What a wonderful video.

Thanks for sharing. Great value, noice ooh des 👍😎👌. Will try and keep that one in mind.

How would this young guy know anything about retirement. My wife and myself planned on retiring there in a a few years. My first time there was 1977 while in the navy also station there several times. I would not recommend living in manila. If a person has never been there they should try living there for a short time before moving ther permanently.

Great job 🎉

Don’t come to my country to retire. We ARE NOT your Disneyland, we ARE NOT your geriatric clinic. We will only receive you with buckets of hostility.

When u said extremely affordable.. the cost of living in USA or other western cities probably much much higher?😅

To retire in Thailand, I need to have at least $3K of monthly pension PLUS at least $100K of extra savings for emergency.

I want to see social security uncollectable outside of the United States. Our country shouldn't be helping the economy of other countries. Our laws must make pension collectable if you are living in the United States. Time to put America first.

Why is this fetus telling me about social security retirement?

Are your numbers correct? RM 40,000 monthly income requirement? That is about $9,500 per month - why would any expat want to stay there for that price?

This is the same stuff I am learning in high school, but glad you are getting it to ppl who don’t know it

Thank you for the information.

SMM2H visa is a better deal, if you want to get into Malayia for the same duration at a significant discount 👍

Just turned 50 years young, to retire in Thailand, I need at least $3K in monthly pension PLUS whatever extra savings that I have use for emergency, I say at least $250K.

7% return. Consistently? That is not realistic.

Hello I would like to retire to Malaysia but I need to know the cost of a 10 - year visa thank you, Clive

Penang for sure but I’m biased

But currently no retirement visa available for new applicants and hasn’t been for sometime. No date has been set for the opening of the MM2H program. So, it can be a great place for short visits but that’s all.

Good job. Thanks for the info.

Let’s be honest , if it wasn’t for the young Filipinas , the foreigners would not be there .

You didn't consider social security. Also, a conservative investor will average 5 to 6% . Social Security can be auto deposited in a USA or Thailand bank account. Another thing you're not considering is that you will be caring for more than one person. It's usually rare that one person lives alone forever. That being said , one out of two people have zero dollars in savings .Therefore, in reality, one person ends up supporting another person. This is a fact of life. Also, I lived in thailand for 8 years, and I would not describe a budget of twenty-five hundred dollars as luxurious. I would describe it as upscale. Or American middle class. Luxury would be $3500 and up. Usually up 😀 Lots of very wealthy Thais. Just because it's a poor country doesn't mean there aren't many very wealth pepole. 😉

Seems about right to me after 3 years of videos -- the $800 to $1500 is what I heard a lot of - depending on location and lifestyle. I do believe you can have whatever you require or desire - for your budget ! The more you are able to adapt to the local ways of living - the lower your costs will be. One man really stood out @ $250/mo. ! Most really frugal US expats were maybe $600 -- $900. Some were quite comfortable and content on $900 > In the right areas. -?-

What passing tourists do not understand that there is a property floor price for foreigners - foreigners have to purchase above a certain limit - KL is 1million ringgit for example - it does not matter what it says on Numbeo. This is to protect the locals property market and ensure they are not priced out of the market.

thanks, with every country, you have to check it out a few times yourself

Absolutely. Liked and subscribed too fellow vloggers too

Thailand is amazing. Freedom and fun. Basically the complete opposite of Malaysia.

why wouldn't you want to stay 90 days a year if you want to retire there ? like why would people want to retire there and not live there ? just wondering

You can live with $700 a month

This is not accurate

Best Healthcare in the world lost doesn't even have USA in the top. That is a joke.

Interested in hearing more about not paying taxes as an expat. Also, give us more details on cost of health care out of pocket versus done of the private insurance options. Thanks

Love your content ❤

In the latest peace index, Malaysia is the 10th most peaceful country in the world. In fact all other countries in top 10 has very small population size (all fewer than 10 million people) except Malaysia the safest country in the world with population of more than 30 million.

question is where the hell do I find $180k?

I'm from Darwin australia temperature and humidity is pretty much identical to Thailand

Hi Fam! Quick correction about the Non-Immigrant O-A Visa. Basic financial criteria is to either 1) provide financial evidence of a 65,000 THB monthly income (about $1,800 USD) OR 2) bank statement showing a balance of 800,000 THB (about $22,000 USD). :)
