Do This ONE Thing and Save 10% On EVERYTHING When Retiring Abroad! 💵
If you're planning to retire to another country, ANY other country than where you live, you NEED to know this secret. If you're already retired and living abroad, you could be wasting A LOT of money! Doesn't matter where you're from or where you're going, you can do this ONE thing and save money!
#retirement #retireabroad #savemoneylivebetter #thailand
I used small examples in the video but let's kick it up a notch. Instead of a 20,000 THB rental let's look at a 4,000,00 THB condo or home purchase. You're a foreigner so you're paying cash. Today, that condo would cost you $116,296, but using this secret, it would only cost me $108,108. Why waste more than $8,000? Watch and learn!

    I got very lucky i just bought a condo when the thai bhat hit a weak point against sterling which made it about a 3% difference in my favour .. i think your peak 7% will be more difficult to achieve in reality but the theory is sound in that when you have fixed dates for financial data being released you can predict currency movements to a certain degree 7 % everytime is unlikely

    • @RetiringToAsia
      @RetiringToAsia День назад

      Without a Thai bank here, I think the only way to pull funds from Wise is with the debit/atm card and I believe, not sure, it's tied to your home funds and not the converted Thai funds. Check with Wise for more details or confirmation. Opening a bank account is super easy if you use an agent. I did a recent video interviewing the agent I use for everything. Check that video out for details on opening an account next time you're here.

    You dont save anything, if you have a budget of $2000 a month, whether you get 69,000 or 70,000 baht, its still $2000 a month. So you are not saving anything, you just have an extra 1000 baht to play with.

    • @RetiringToAsia
      @RetiringToAsia День назад

      😂😂 new math? Since we don't use dollars here...your $2000 got you 68,000 baht, but I got 74,000. If your budget is 50,000 THB/Mo., yes we both pay 50,000 but I have more left over. Looks like a savings to me but you do you. Thanks for watching.
