I'll be in Thailand 3 days and all this info is very helpful! Thanks for sharing your budget tips bro🙏Stay safe and keep posting content🎥
I hope I can start posting content again just don’t have anything to show or talk about rn
Great review my friend. I'm a Thai-American citizen. I started to think about early retiring and move back in Thailand. So this time I decided to stay in Thailand longer than usual to see if I like it.
The Cost of living in Thailand is much cheaper. However it depends on the life style and how you spend the money. Last month I paid the property tax for my ocean view house and lands here for $150 in total vs $6500 for my house in Los Angeles. Plus in Thailand, it's not required the home insurrance. You don't need to buy the insurrance for motorcycle neither. Internet, cell phone service and other services are much much cheaper.
What I spent the most were probably when I went to the nice restaurants hung out with old friends. It could have been $2 instead of $25 baht for dinners.
My house is 1 hour away from Pattaya. It's acommunity of Expats mostly from Europe. Mnay of them live here permanently. With under $2k pension, they can buy a new house, new car and enjoy lifes they couldn't have in their homeland.
Awesome information Maxsitti. That’s the assessment I made when I spent 45 days there. Now I’m fired up to get my next remote position and to attempt working abroad. Even if I have to work through the night I much rather do that then to be here in the states dealing with the rat race here! I can’t wait to get back! But, I’m definitely exploring a lot more, my only regret is not going around the country a bit more.
you and many others inspire me man.
Thanks for that brother. Means a lot man. Get out there!
Currently wrapping up a coding bootcamp. This is inspirational brutha - the kind of life I wanna lead.
Thanks glad I could show you a bit of the potential. You got this man keep it up.
I'm headed back in a month. I'll be in Jomtien, Hua Hin, Pattaya and Bangkok. I'd like to move to Jomtien by October, 1 BR between $250 and $495 a month. no motorbike, moving alone, don't drink
Defini doable. To be comfortable I would have about 2k for a month minimum. Even better if you have 3k or about a 100 usd a day budget you can essentially go out every day and do most things
Thanks! I'm Greeny's buddy I'll be there soon. Tell Fai I said hi. She's a sweetheart.
I’m back in the USA but she is a great person. Thank you so much for the Super chat! Enjoy your time out there brother!
Can you do a nha trang or da nang video?
This was in Thailand when I went there last year. These places you mentioned are in Vietnam. I’d like to go there one day but I’m back in the USA looking for work to head out full time as a digital nomad. Maybe one day but it’s not possible rn. I appreciate you watching though
I want to move there so bad but I feel frozen. I have two cats so its nerving. I dont have any luck finding remote jobs
Yeah I’m stuck at the moment too just take it day by day and do what you have to brother the day will come eventually
Go to the night market in Jomtiem great food there is cheap Charlie’s in Pattaya or Jomtiem great English or American breakfast starts 119 thai baht and it’s great food there to be honest I have eaten in expensive restaurants in Thailand 🇹🇭 but I really think the cheap places have even been better
I agree the cheap food can be just as great. I’m back in the USA now. But, I’m planning my escape so. Just working on getting my next working gig and heading out side of the country.
Great video brother
Yes, the cost living in the US is extremely expensive. You can try Vanlife or Tiny house. The inflation, US food prices, gas prices and car insurance is ridiculously high. Btw, I love eating cheap Southeast ASIAN Street food. I love Thai food, Cambodian, Vietnamese, Cantonese, Taiwanese, Chinese, Malaysian and Singaporean food.
Heack yeah man the food is amazing out there. I feel bad for the close minded tourists who stay inside of a small bubble of food options while out there. I’ve seen a few and western people are way too picky.
Isn’t that street food very unhealthy and unsanitary? I watch others who claim many of them don’t wash their hands, handle money and food, and some admitted to being on the toilet many days. How do you find the safe and good ones and avoid the bad ones?
@@Tony-lm5zs that’s exactly the point I’m bringing up. Those dudes must be lying because I never seen any of that. They’re weird when they say stufff like that and you go and never seen any of that.
@@LifeWithRilla well Auston was the first one I watched who admitted to having the runs for days and he stopped eating street food. It could be true for many just getting a bad batch of food or chose a bad vendor. It can happen cause I’ve been food poisoned 2-3 times here at American fast food restaurants. You be surprised how nasty some people who work in any American restaurant
I had travelers stomach once out there once my body adapted after 3 days I was good since. But, that same thing happened to me in the USA and way more time than I experienced it in the usa. But, I spent my whole life here. Take your own risk. I don’t think there is anything wrong with the food there in most places. There are some I wouldn’t eat from but that’s subjective. Most of the restaurants though are sanitary & I eaten from the night markets several times never had an issue.
Bro who where you able to get a condo without a 90day lease ? Just curious when I was there 6monlths ago I jump from hotel to hotel was a good experience but one place would be great to
I used airbnb while I was out there and yes I overpaid slightly but for more long term yeah I would look for a 90 day lease. I didn’t take that route though so I’m not sure how to go about that
Il Monstro!
Ducati Monster...
Have them check the regulator.. I had a 2006 and it would have trouble starting when hot on occasion..
Thanks for that feedback bro. I think they have it fixed now but i'm not sure what the issue was.
GOOD VIDEO!
I appreciate that brother thanks for watching
@@LifeWithRilla NOW I'M WATCHING THE VIDEO WITH GREENY TRAVELS DIVORCE
Damn, when Im just ordering regular doordash in the US it's about $70 delivery for a couple or a few items of lesser quality! I think someone on reddit was complaining about eating wendys on doordash like a burger fries and drinks for about $30 US. We are spoiled here for convenience, but its not worth it, even when you go to pick it up. 😕Better to just save the money to travel and eat damn good overseas, amongst other activities.
Food looked good though on ya'lls end.
Just wanted to also say it's good Rilla, that you're waxing philosophical on traveling away from what you knew and getting more world knowledge. Can only get better from there. :D
Thanks for the comment man and yeah I agree. I much rather go abroad and just split my time coming home to see family & being abroad. I’d still come back & travel within the country but definitely in an rv or something
@@LifeWithRilla Yeah thats what Im trying to slowly build up to. Im rounding out my spanish so I can visit Mexico more, and colombia, and the supposed* goal is to try and go every other 2 months next year (2024) to those areas. And maybe hit up Thailand too. So you giving all the good info still :D Dont know how that RV life will save you money though.
Very nice
Labor costs for mechanics is about 100 dollars an hour
100 an hour in the USA im assuming you’re saying?
Yeah !
That same coffee cost about 30 thai baht outside and chaing Mia the Thai coffee is better the coffee is from chaing Mia I prefer to give local people money instead of big company’s that why we leave the USA 🇺🇸 and uk for always look for lots of people if you buy outside it can be beautiful there is one market in Pattaya the mangos 🥭 are 25 30 thai baht per kilo in central Pattaya 60 thai baht you should always learn a little Thai asking how much and learn how to count and personally a single man needs 55 000 thai baht per month a Mellon is £9 in uk 🇬🇧 35 thai baht yes I agree with you now Biden has taken the rains the uk as well
Thanks for the comment brother. Solid advice. When I come back I’ll be going to other places as well :)
How much is your rent?
When I was visiting Pattaya the cost could range between 250 to 450 per month on Airbnb which fluctuates. I was there during “high season” so the costs were more than through the rest of the year. I was only there on vacation mind you so.
7-11 40 baht same same
You're right about the Army. It was rough sometimes and you had to adapt.
Lol the Barack’s in some of the bases were rough out in the field. Fort benning drills in the field barracks sucked
Never ate shit much less heard it was good.
What?
@LifeWithRilla sarcasm.... you said, " this shit is good" when referring to Thai food.
@@amigo216 Lolol 😂😂
@LifeWithRilla Army dog here, you know we give each other crap,, Amigo!
you still with auston i emailed u before about linking to learn how to edit better and mob around with me lmk
Auston is on Africa and I’m back in the states g
I replied to your email
Rilla ,i love you my brother , but if you don't start making some god damn videos
My bad man 😂😭… I need to figure out something I’ll post soon and see if I could be consistent brother. I appreciate you sticking around. Let’s see… what should I talk about? I’m back state side until I find my next job.
@@LifeWithRilla I think you naturally cater your videos to the things the average traveler would wants to know. You definitely need to do something where you discuss dating abroad. Judging by the video with Auston, You seem to share an unbiased perspective and lean more to objective information to base you opinions.
I’m posting again brother
@@LifeWithRillalet's goooo lol
Don't go down the streets with all the music and lights, lol..
It’s a fun area to be. Sure there are plenty of weirdness but it’s also a lot of fun out there tbh. Beware of lady boys lol I’m aware but they’re honest if they are and they don’t hide that they are. Honestly, I really enjoy my time out there. I can’t wait to keep traveling.
@@LifeWithRilla , yes it’s an experience everyone should get, my first time back in 2018, it’s nice to get grabbed with attention sometimes.

I really enjoyed the digital nomad culture. The cost of living. I felt a lot less stressed out being out there than I do here in the USA where everything is super competitive & bills are extremely expensive. I don’t really like the whole working girl culture. But, I enjoyed the ability to just go out and easily meet people who were happy out there. At least the foreigners who were there seemed really down to earth. I don’t like the groping lol. But, I just tolerated it. I have higher standards when I go out there for that reason. But, I show them respect too. I’m not going to judge them life out there is hard enough for the locals.
@@LifeWithRilla Same here, no judging on my part either on how they choose to live and make a living.
Simping at it's peak😁😁
Having friends is simping? Yikes man, you must have some healthy friendships.
@@LifeWithRilla you know what I mean son
Just let us know your cost of living, You don't have to keep comparing the cost between USA and Pattaya, They are different economies, Are you on some quest to increase the cost of living in Thailand?
go watch another channel
