I would add “self control”. Too many temptations in Pattaya (girls, drinking, drugs, eating) and most guys probably have never truly been tested under these type conditions before so they honestly don’t know how they will react. I’d like to say most guys could catch themselves before things get bad but you never know (especially if you are there alone and have no one to snap you out of it). It’s kind of like gambling, the first time you go to Vegas, you don’t really know if you can pull yourself away from the betting table before you blow it all.
I was hooked on hookers and weed but fortunately became to exhausted trying to keep up and moved to bang saray before I pushed it to far. I fortunately kept drinking to a minimum
I live in Sin City, so the stigma of Pattaya does not concern me a bit. The average temperature for June, July, August, and September in Vegas is 112 degrees. It is dry compared to humid. Noise and traffic would definitely be a problem for me. I wouldn't buy a car, so I would have to live in a quiet area but also walking distance to small restaurants and street food. For extracurricular activities, I guess I would take a tuk-tuk or Grab. For me, Saipan is almost perfect. I would buy a car or cheap lease. Great roads, almost no traffic, easy access to private beach (nicer than Hawaii). They even have a small Chinatown. Only 50,000 people, 40% white. Speak English, use dollar and is a US protectorate with available Medicare. Two big hospitals and pharmacies. Two big supermarkets. Food prices similar to Vegas. US military base in the back of island. 4 &1/2-hour flight to Japan ($300.00) The downside is a limited number of younger available women.
Great advice, Tom! Been enjoying your channel for a while now - you serve up a great mix of walk around videos, in-country travel and in-depth interviews. Keep up the good work! - Mark O, East coast, USA.
15 years ago there were no falong women. The Golden Age of Pattaya. Now it's a retirement community. You can buy a studio apartment with a beautiful pool .. 5 minute walk to the beach for peanuts.. Thanks for the presentation
You can live in Pattaya,I live in Jomtien,a laid back version of Pattaya,about 4 km away it’s extremely liveable and nice condos and near a much nicer beach than Pattaya city,it’s everything you could possibly need 😊
@@MargaritasinParadise I remember being in the Philippines about 30 years ago and it was so hot while walking during the day that I thought I'd melt. I live in Florida and I don't go walking when it's 95 degrees (35 Celsius) outside.
@@WW-to5rc Unfortunately it isn't easy for many like myself to learn another language especially after 40 years old ( I started Portuguese at 46 after getting married in Brazil ). I imagine Thai is more difficult for monolingual English speakers but it boils down to how bad do you want it?
One guy said don't walk around without a shirt when you are not at the beach, or Thai's are offended. It seems like in any beach destinations it's ok unless you are inside a business.
I've done many videos covering this subject before. I have a friend who refuses to wear a shirt for just about anywhere he goes. Pattaya puts up with him but may other areas wouldn't. Do the right thing. Adapt to this culture. Life is to easy.

@@louis20122 I think that's an issue in all Western country. On the plus side the uk does not have extreme temperatures, extreme poverty, lots of roaches, scorpions, dangerous snakes, packs of wild dogs and rabies.
Great points guys. Developed countries like the UK are hard toi compare to Thailand. Thailand still has some mystery, dirt under it's finger nail type of lifestyle. Developed country populace truly believe in undeniable rights.
Years ago, there was this popular club on Walking Street that stopped two groups of foreigners from entering their club. One of these countries has a population 1.4 billion people and the other group of people was of Middle Eastern origin. A friend from the USA said they can't stop certain groups of foreigners from entering their club. The American said that's discrimination and that club can be sued. I ask the American, are we in America? Today on Walking Street the people from the country of 1.4 billion people have some of the largest clubs on it.
You're absolutely right. I was just talking about this with some guys last week. It's a crazy circle. I remember at time when Thai men were not allowed in the gogo's as well. Now days, the the only groups I see singled out are groups of girls and ladyboys not being allowed in some gogo's or nightclubs.
@@carltonedwards8775 don’t attend clubs with wall to wall India guys. I seen them want to have 5 men with 1 girl. The Chinese men “throw” their tip money at the Thai girls after they are done ✅ I seen it in public many times in Bangkok. The Russian signs all over really is so laughable. Learn Thai, it’s not your country
Intriguing thoughts, thank you I'm going to do a video on Indian visitors in Pattaya someday. I have a good friend and meet others often from India. India is actually on my bucket-list to visit. Anyway, I have to figure out the best way to approach the topics. Overall, I think many times they get a bad rap from westerners. I don't necessarily agree with many of their actions but I feel like I get it more now. I personally don't like walking in the road especially when there's a side-walk. Now the traditional sense of throwing money or money on the floor maybe be a little different in a nightclub/go-go. I suppose Russians wonder why there are so many signs in English, especially in an area that Russian dominantly live in. Thanks again
All men who come to Pattaya (by the way, you should learn and pronounce the name correctly) come to get what they can't get at home. As you know, Pattaya is located in Thailand but is not recognized among Thais as anything other than a 'Farang city/place', not as part of the real Thailand. If you want to settle in the real land of smiles, Pattaya is of course not the place.
I asked the wait staff this morning at breakfast about the way I pronounce Pattaya and they said it was good. One Thai guy told me that half the Thai people say it wrong but everyone knows what your they’re talking about. I could only imagine changing everyone in Thailand to pronounce the word "Krap" from "cup". As far as Pattaya is concerned, there's no doubt it completely different from the rural or less touristy areas of Thailand. Most people couldn't survive in general in areas that most people can not understand them. You don't have to travel far to see this point, although most westerners have no value in exploring the unknown. People come to Pattaya for exactly what it is. A matter of fact they fall in love with Pattaya and that's why there are so many people living here. Anyway I hope you have a great day. Life is too good to worry about the small things.
Personally, I think it would be hard to spend $50 nightly on street food; otherwise yes & you should have plenty to spare. a $4K budget for 3 weeks is doable as well but you'll have to watch your money and not over indulge.
Thanks for the info! I'm curious do you have an end game plan when you get older? Like moving back to the states? I've watching "Steady Eddie" and he had a tough time getting back to the UK, but he's doing better. If you get a chance to go back to Hua Hin can you check out Sunshine International Resort for the seniors, it looks pretty awesome. 🙏
Steady Eddie is a wake up call for many of us. He's surely changing lives for many expats in Thailand. Personally, I don't have an end game. I love Thailand & plan on dying here; hopefully later than sooner. Another friend sent me the brochure on Sunshine International, I definitely need to check it out.
Great content, one suggestion, you've moved across the globe to be in a place you say you love. Why not take a moment to learn how to properly pronounce the cities name? I'm American as well, I understand the language barrier can be tough but if you live there, why not try to get that right.
I asked the wait staff a couple days ago at breakfast about the way I pronounce “Pattaya” and they said it was good. One Thai guy told me that half the Thai people say it wrong but everyone knows what they’re talking about. Another, Western man told me how to say it “properly”. I could only imagine changing every Thai male to pronounce the word "Krap" from "cup". For me, I look at this pronunciation the same as people saying the words potato or Missouri in the USA. Everyone says it differently. I first came to Thailand in 1987 about 37 years ago, I basically went 36 years before I started RUclips and people started to tell me then about my pronounciation of certain words. Anyway, I do appreciated the input. One day I plan on taking a proper language course. Still I can’t imagine changing things that have been engraved in my soul for long but you never know. Anyway, Thanks again
I agree, the safety standpoint is not a problem. I do wonder how sometimes single guys see female traveling alone though. I guess it's a worldwide issue in reality but with the nature of this environment I wonder if those females perceive any additional attention?
It's funny you say this, tonight I have the "7 items of why you have to retire in Pattaya" I actually break those items down which literally could have been 30. 5555 Please check it out.
Thank you for your response on my 2 previous comments regarding the comparisons of Jomtien and Pattaya. Don't get me wrong, Pattaya is NOT a bad place to live but for some people, it's just NOT for me. Like I stated in my previous remarks, everyone is entitled to their opinions and likes or dislikes. As for me personally, I chose to live in Jomtien for the reasons I have stated in my previous comments. Also, thank you for taking time to create content. I know it's time consuming but It is informative and very interesting. I have officially subscribed.
So who the hell goes somewhere were their not comfortable if you can’t stand the heat go somewhere else you have literally thousands of other choices here’s an idea pick one🤷
This is a valid point, personally I think your diving into this too much. People definitely have choices of where they want to be. I think, I compared it to having a choice between say Pattaya and Chiang Mai. Even in Pattaya, not everyone goes to Walking Street or the like places.
@@peterkelly5672 ever time you approach a gorgeous Thai woman simply ask if she is a ladyboy, if she say yes move on, if she says no, then say you were told that only beautiful girls are ladyboys..She’ll be hooked..You’re welcome
That's the rumor. Personally, I've been hearing that rumor for years. I think the Space Hotel has an entire floor allocated for a future casino but I'm skeptical. Gambling is illegal in Thailand, heck even playing cards are illegal. I guess, I will believe it when I see it.
You bring up an interesting fact. This is something I'm constantly adjusting myself. Hopefully eventually, I become a little more seasoned and figure the volume thing out.
I never said that. I said that I wondered how females felt in this type of environment. Everyone makes their own choice of where they want to play. If you decide to bring your children to Soi 6 for instance; that in my opinion is a bad choice. If a female from the US is standing alone on Walking Street or say Beach Road "Coconut Bar area" and she keeps getting approached by different men. How does she feel? Obviously she put herself in that position. There could be endless scenarios here.
Yes foreign women do get ignored but of the foreign women that get ignored I would say that black women get absolutely noo attention..I think even if they walked around naked they wouldn't get attention..
It's interesting you say that. I see a lot of African women on Beach road that look like they're going with many men. I also have a friend that prefers African women but I don't really pay attention to their situation so much. Thanks for the info.
You're probably right, I choose not to pay attention to skin color or where people are from in general. I suspect, out of all the African women on beach road they only represent less than 1% of women from everywhere else on beach road. I further suspect that 50% of those women that are looking for companionship, go with people every day. Obviously it's not a significant number, there are many African women here on holiday and are not looking for companionship. I hope you have a great day, and a better night.
@@MargaritasinParadise hey I'm a black man,,, I can tell you that wherever black women go they are constantly seeking attention..😆🤣 I'm dead serious.. but overall thailand is the place for us men to go and select and be selected.. Jamaica is probably where women can go to be selected.. also while I visited Barcelona I noticed alot of African men on the beach in the company of alot of women of other races,,interestingly enough they were usually old old Caucasian women.. that was an Interesting site to me being that was my first time out there.
I appreciate the input. It's a tough call when editing. The background music is set at -14 decibels and my voice is set at over 20 X higher at +8 decibels. I have an issue myself with background sounds and I know how distracting sounds can be but somehow the sounds don't always come out right from the cutting room floor even though the background music only last 30 seconds of the introduction. Anyway, I will work on lowering the music even lower as I do think the background music is important for the overall touch of the video. Thanks again.
Brother, Great Video. Please interject more of your opinions because they are very valid from an expert like you that lives there. I appreciate you. Thank you for your time and effort to make the videos. On your way to 100,000 subs! My beliefs: (and I agree with you on everything) American Whomen that go to Medellin and pattaya are crazy and looking for problems and outrage or clicks on their social media. lol I like it hot like it is in Miami - same. I've been to 57 countries and many losers don't understand that it is not their country. Just shut up. If you don't like it, then leave. Anyone that says too many temptations lack self control in general. I support drinking and spending money, it helps the bar owners and girls. Young women and older men - throughout history, it is a normal thing. Finally, maybe I will only go during low season. Honestly, I am NOT racist but I have a problem with, cheap men from India wanting to have 5 men with one girl. The Chinese are very rude. I seen them throw tip money at the thai girls like they are so low. Russians - why should there be russian signs all over, it is thailand, learn Thai. Period.
I would add “self control”. Too many temptations in Pattaya (girls, drinking, drugs, eating) and most guys probably have never truly been tested under these type conditions before so they honestly don’t know how they will react. I’d like to say most guys could catch themselves before things get bad but you never know (especially if you are there alone and have no one to snap you out of it). It’s kind of like gambling, the first time you go to Vegas, you don’t really know if you can pull yourself away from the betting table before you blow it all.
That's a valid point and I did actually think about self-control. I may pin your post to the front of the comments. Thanks for bringing up this.
Maybe find a friend who is grounded that can prevent you from going overboard. Not everyone in Pattaya is a raving alcoho-sexo-holic.

@@MargaritasinParadise hey I'm a black man,,, I can tell you that wherever black women go they are constantly seeking attention..😆🤣 I'm dead serious.. but overall thailand is the place for us men to go and select and be selected.. Jamaica is probably where women can go to be selected.. also while I visited Barcelona I noticed alot of African men on the beach in the company of alot of women of other races,,interestingly enough they were usually old old Caucasian women.. that was an Interesting site to me being that was my first time out there.
I definitely appreciate your input, Experience says alot. Thanks.
These blokes look in the mirror and think expat.
Locals look at them and think P prowler at best or Gary glitter at worst.
Interesting perspective.
Cut out that freaking music, you can t hear anything else
I appreciate the input. It's a tough call when editing. The background music is set at -14 decibels and my voice is set at over 20 X higher at +8 decibels. I have an issue myself with background sounds and I know how distracting sounds can be but somehow the sounds don't always come out right from the cutting room floor even though the background music only last 30 seconds of the introduction. Anyway, I will work on lowering the music even lower as I do think the background music is important for the overall touch of the video. Thanks again.
Please stop with the feminist BS your not in Paris or New York 🤷
😄
Brother, Great Video. Please interject more of your opinions because they are very valid from an expert like you that lives there. I appreciate you. Thank you for your time and effort to make the videos. On your way to 100,000 subs!
My beliefs: (and I agree with you on everything) American Whomen that go to Medellin and pattaya are crazy and looking for problems and outrage or clicks on their social media. lol I like it hot like it is in Miami - same. I've been to 57 countries and many losers don't understand that it is not their country. Just shut up. If you don't like it, then leave. Anyone that says too many temptations lack self control in general. I support drinking and spending money, it helps the bar owners and girls. Young women and older men - throughout history, it is a normal thing. Finally, maybe I will only go during low season. Honestly, I am NOT racist but I have a problem with, cheap men from India wanting to have 5 men with one girl. The Chinese are very rude. I seen them throw tip money at the thai girls like they are so low. Russians - why should there be russian signs all over, it is thailand, learn Thai. Period.
Thank you so much, Great Points. I tonights video, I mention some of these ethnic diversities. Thanks again.
