    I retired in Pattaya, Thailand. My condo is a five-minute drive to the beach, and the rent is $207 + electric and water $105 = $312/month. (I have a video of the Condo.)

    Don't buy into any of these prices for one minute!
    I've lived in DaNang and currently live in Thailand. I live on Social Security, my budget is very modest!
    I don't drink or blow my money on anything extravagant. What's more realistic is 800 to 1000 unless you want to exist in poverty and barely eat right.
    I really hate these AI generated videos. They're not well thought out at all, the voice over barely pronounces names correctly, and to rely on inputed information over investigating for yourself just encourages a deceptive message overall.
    Good for making money by being lazy and letting AI do the volume posts for you, but you easily lose credibility through incorrect information and deception. Just a joke!

      I lived in Pattaya for 2 years recently. I would agree with you and say $800 to $1,000 in Thailand if you lived in the sticks and never ate out and only ate local food that was purchased by a Thai. More like $1,200 to $1,600 living in a city and eating out a bit and eating more western foods available at the big supermarkets.

      I fully agree. $150 rent will get you a studio apartment in a township two hours from ChiangRei.
      I'm hoping these costs are all off by similar %s. I'd like to visit Marrakesh..

      Greetings: GreenGlobe --- Take this will a grain of salt... My experience = I live between Panama ( Central America ) and Colorado, USA. Yes, developing countries may appear to have low costs for their average citizen ; however , Americans will not want to live at this drastically lower standard .

    A friend retired to the Philippines (Cebu Island, Talisay city) with his Filipina wife. They had a home built for a total of $25,000 US around the year 2001. It's an American style home with cement walls and a steel roof. They live very well on his SSI which he took at age 62 for $1,045 US a month. They have Sat TV and Internet. Visited them twice. Watched the SuperBowl live on a Monday morning. I plan to retire there at age 70 to maximize my SSI

    Eating a meal for $3 is good , if you eat twice a day that amounts $6 a day which is $180 a month. So how can you be living on $200 a month...?

      I have friends in Morocco who will disagree with you. Some things, like fresh fruit, is available for pennies on the dollar, fish and lamb are plentiful and cheap. Beef is expensive, and pork is hard to find at any price.

    My wife is Indonesian, I lived in Taiwan, the Philippines, Thailand and Sri lanka. I can assure you that in none of these countries, even if they where not all mentioned here you can currently live with less than 1000 to 1500 € per month. My wife's family lives in a small village near the Southern coast of East Java. And even there unless you live in a shed and eat only white rice with some vegetables you need more than 800€ per month. And then you go nowhere, buy no clothes, etc...Thailand was relatively cheap when I lived and worked there (Changmai and Bangkok) in the late 80's and early 90's but even then 800 -1000€ would not cut it to survive even if you lived very frugal. When I was back there with my family, now 10 years ago, I could hardly believe how expensive everything had gotten. More than double what it used to be. The Philippines I found very unsafe and expensive the one time I was there for work in the early 2000's. As for Colombia I have plenty friends from that country and their only wish is to get out of there as it is so unsafe. One friend from Pereirra, had 3 members of her family killed, her aunt one of those, was attacked by an escaped convict, brutally tortured, raped and murdered. Her husband was killed a few monts later because he was making too much waves because his wife's case did not get solved. A week after he was kid in his home in front of his 9 year old daughter the police found the killer of his wife. Another friend from Cali lost both her brother and husband because the got caught in a cross fire between police and gangsters. And Colombian as well is expensive to live. 1200 - 2000€ is the bare minimum, depending on where want to live.
    Oh and do not forget most of these countries do not make it easy to stay there.

    BS video but it is very inexpensive compared to the USA. I live in both Bangkok and Makati and it costs about 1/4 what it did in America. The two biggest savings are rent and the top medical insurance. Medical in Bangkok is top notch.
