    I just found your channel. Lots of good points here.
    I left the west for good and to me South East Asia is the best place on the planet.
    As I said South East Asia can be “Paradise on Earth” or “The Graveyard of Fools”, you choose.
    I am into Vietnam and I find Vietnamese ladies very attractive. Vietnam is less developed than Thailand but that is changing. I have been doing lots of budgeting and in Vietnam you can live and enjoy for 45 million VND or 1755 USD.
    If you go to a second tier city up the coast or in the Mekong Delta it would be much less than that.
    5K USD is huge in South East Asia.
    Things change when you factor in “da ladies” and the fact that in South East Asia “EVERY NIGHT” can be Friday night and I am not kidding about this.
    In South East Asia you can party 7 days a week and then alcohol which is a demon that slowly creeps in will affect you in a very negative way.
    You can see in Bui Vien all these older westerners completely hammered at 11am with a table full of empty beer bottles. You need to control that because alcohol is a true demon.
    As for accommodation you need to bargain hard because as a foreigner they will always overcharge you. You need to ask around to locals, befriend locals and bargain “H. A. R. D.” Because this could mean 300-500 USD or more extra in your pocket every month.
    I am surprised the studio of Geoffrey is so cheap. That’s a steal and good for you. That means extra money to enjoy life.
    I found the Red Pill community and it shook my world. I was confused, upset, angry and so many things made sense and I realized how wrong I was in many things particularly: career (money), friendships and of course “Da Ladies”.
    We only have one life and I want to be happy.
    I am in the region soon going to Vietnam again.

    Living in Pratumnak (Pattaya), with a total budget of $5,000/mo, I typically spend $3,000 or less. Now, I don’t do any of the fancy shit. I don’t care for VIP at the clubs or fancy places to eat, I just have a nice condo. No car needed. I just spend a bit on girls and booze cause I like to party but don’t get it twisted, that full $5,000 budget can be gone real quick. The dark side can be a steal when looking for housing on the low but it’s a hike and I refuse to live less than walking distance from the beach or having that view from my balcony.
