I have a job lined up in thailand , and a consistant. years long client online in a field that I'm an expert in. I want to know if there will be any issues receiving money from my client if I move to thailand. What hurdles will I face with banking if im overseas?
Lets face it less than a few percentage live comfortably as digital nomad...find a job where u can work for only 6 months a year...i personally work in the UK April-October the money I earn in them months goes a long way in Thailand
Love your hard truth, pull no punches delivery. These practical and mindset skills that lead to success in this space (and in most areas) are muscles, just like those we use in the physical world. And they need to be exercised, and some people start with more than others. But we have to all be real and acknowledge where we are at. And then do the fkg work!
Great video. Stubborn, determined and relentless are 3 words that spring to mind when I think what I've needed to be to get to even a modest income online. Definitely not an overnight or "within 30 days" thing and immediately skip any RUclips ad that comes up (there are plenty) that tries to make out that it is.
I wish I could give you several thumbs up. I've taken both of your courses and I'm really just getting started after taking 2-3 months to figure out that I was being a lazy fuck. What you're saying here is 100% facts.
Dealing with reality when starting a business is so true even in your own country. Doing it abroad requires to be even more careful and rational. Too many people live in Fantasyland and want to start their business for wrong reasons (hate their boss, believe they can work less..). They just see those who already succeeded enjoying their life, but usually this come from blood, sweat and tears).
Great video Brett. I think a lot of people in the world today lack accountability and are either unable to or unwilling to see and admit their own flaws and make the changes necessary to succeed in work/life, or become a better person etc.
Good video. A tough pill to swallow and still hurts me hearing it honestly, but it needs to be said. I started my own business nearly 2 years ago and although I can make so much more than what I made being employed - running my own business is way more stressful and tiring than any job I've had. I HATE what I do at times and often times resent clients, but the truth is being able to work for yourself is a privilege and a blessing. Yes running your own business does give you more freedom and money, but its not all sunshine and rainbows. One good thing you can say about the UK is if you want an easy life without stress a part time job or living on benefits will give you that. I've done both. But if you want loads of money you have to earn it through crap that nobody wants to do, which is why you're paid for doing it. I'm not smart, I'm not a uni graduate, I wasn't successful in school, I don't even have any formal qualifications relevant to my business. Anyone can make loads of money, even me. You don't need luck or smarts. I'm yet to come across a well-paying form of self-employment that doesn't have a catch, I'd be interested to hear if there is one. Great video mate. Really appreciate your content 👍
Honestly I just wanna be a Digital Nomad just to see other places and work on my art business from everywhere, meeting more and more artists. I know I got a lot of work to do, but I'm botu to graduate college and start fresh into the world. Thanks for the tips! I think i'm strong enough to make it
Dear Brett, I've been watching your videos the last week's and I have been laughing a lot, so Tha KS for that. Why?.. Well, several reasons. I looove how u talk, the way you say things is so pure (wondering why all the swearing doesn't cause issues with utube, but it's good..) the how u explain and the comments about people with no money but not willing to work on Saturday or Sunday.. I laughed my ass off.. I have worked 51 weeks for the last 6 years, building my own business... Now I sold the company and in June/ July I will be moving to Thailand.. Not for working for making money, just wanna work so I don't get bored out... Bore out is worser than burn out.. Take good care, keep up the good work, mate. Thanks for sharing those thaughts with us.. My best wishes follow, take care, nino
I had got a job in Bangkok while I was living in Europe. I worked 5 months remotely and I relocated ( on my own expenses ) to Thailand in April. Everything seemed smooth and promising but when I arrived in the next working day they just terminated me, and refused to pay my last month. I advise everyone to take double care, please.
@@adrianadios5041 Emergency funds and Plan B and I also advise to NOT deal with any lawyer in Thailand even if they are your "friends". They will rip you off with their already set scams.
Being Retired and having a reliable income is a good start. I have looked at many things whilst being retired, because I have the time to look. I have a number of Irons in the fire, it takes time there is no quick fix. Plenty of Shiny Object Syndrome and Magic Pill methods available. Good Vid.
I've been here six months now I day trade everyday I'm not making a penny doing it I've been a day trader for 18months so I still got a long way to go I've been looking at at other ways to make money but nothing has really jumped out at me I've always been good with my hands built houses all my life so I've never really been acidemic but because of that I'm probably trying harder than most my mindset is very good and I try my best everyday regardless of the out come just wish I could find something that suits me apart from the trading.. Keep up the good work Brett your one of the reasons I made the move to Thailand
You are absolutely. right. And there are not only the problems with yourself. It is the surrounding also. I live in Sansibar. You have to realize that it is not like at home: no Amazon, nothing to buy like at home. You just get what is there. Ant then the different culture, language, food, etc. It can be extremely frustrating if you are alone and on your own. And: powercuts happen all the time. You do not know when and for how long. You have to be very stable and strong to cope with all of that.
Thank you for making this video Brett. I made good money in the US and I try to save and invest every spare penny with plans to move to Thailand when I’m financially independent.
I have been so disillusioned by the UK recently that I feel like I need to move to another country and since my wife is from there we're thinking of moving to Thailand. I have never been there so I am actually really nervous. No idea what it's going to be like
Great advice Brett. I generally agree, but that doesn't mean you do something you're passionate about just because you like it. If there is demand for something, there is no reason why you can't fill the need, even if you don't have "life-long passion" for it. When you make decent money, you often start to enjoy it.
@@brett_dev Good to hear. We all need a break sometimes! I'm just starting out my new travel vlog beginning in Bangkok and doing some footage of Korea right now then back to Thailand eventually!
I like the weak mindset thing. It is so true. But I have missed the survival aspect in it a little bit. You do not have only to get clear with yourself, there are a lot of roadblocks and little accidents you have to go through on the way. If you are not able to survive in "not that good" situations you will probably not make it. And you always have to understand that things can go worse from one moment to the other. You need to be strong enough for the bad times, not always need to having fancy ideas but you need to have a strong will. As we all know, sun is not always shining here in lovely Thailand...
Hi Brett. Charlie from Boston mass USA here. I been to Mexico only because they were one of the few open to the unvaccinated and they were close in proximity. I’ve been watching your channel for a while love your content. Happy to see Thailand is open to the unvaccinated. I will research now and see if there is a place I would like to go for a month or two in Thailand to start. Thanks for what you do. I’ll be in touch. Peace man
Loved this, need to learn some more skills with sales, closing deals and such. Very pumped that I'm shifting my focus from as we put it "boots on the ground" service here in Canada, and shifting to remote/online service instead.
I have a job in thailand lined up and a years long consistent client online in a field that im an expert at. I want to know if there will be any issues receiving money from my client if I move to thailand. What hurdles will I face with banking if im overseas?
Hi Bret I’m interested in chatting to you, I’m heading up to Chiang Mia in a couple of days. I’ve been in Thailand 2 months and keen to set up something here
Hi Brett my friend and I are coming to change mai we are 2 women in are late 50 would it be safe for us to leave are passports in the safe in the rooms we are staying in old town BB mantra boutique?
Signed up for your workshop and learning a lot. I could fall into that 2nd category of people that have a good thing going with current career. Looking to take the long road to location independence in 1-2 years.
I want to live in Thailand. And want to keep working online... how is the internet latency on things like webcams to America or Europe? When I ping servers in Thailand I'm seeing 300 ms or more, I know bandwidth is good there, but latency is my concern. Would love to test a video call with someone in Thailand, any recommendations? Thanks!
"I don't work Saturday and Sundays"...hahaha....i work every day, i need to, to meet demand. If i took the whole weekend off, i'd fail....I spread my weekend out 'across the week' in smaller chunks....
Whats Up Bro , I sent you a Email. but the short version is . I going to be in CM in a Couple of Weeks and I know weve talked about Grabing Beer in the past , Well Now We Can ,Choice!....alright in a bit ..Chur!
Great advice. Unfortunately, most of the people who need your guidance will continue to bury their heads in the sand and won't listen to you. They will convince themselves that they are not responsible for their own failure. Success = hard work + common sense. I have been in Chiang Mai (Doi Saket) for the last two weeks and I am wondering where all the rain is during this monsoon season?
What r ur thoughts on day trading, i become very good recently after 2 years of blown accounts, i do it for the money but also the fact i only have to work for 2hrs n i can make alot of money in my sleep, like more than somes 40 hr work week, i also do it for the freedom i will get it from it n being able to do whatever i want when i want not having to answer to anyone
Good video. You’ve made a lot of good points. The truth is that most millennials are lazy, have no work ethic, therefore it’s very difficult for them to make progress in their lives. Some do have disabilities though which isn’t their fault. I hope this video motivates the right people!

This is one of the best channels in Thailand. Brett always gives solid relevant and practical advice on working on-line in Thailand.
"nobody gives a fuck how you feel!" valuable words to live by

Yes same for me i work in live events and festivals in Canada when snow starts falling i know i have tickets to book hahaha
Telling the harsh truth in a kind way. He is a good person.
