My Thai wife couldn’t wait to get back to the Uk after a month visiting family in the 40degree heat. I returned to the UK after 20 years living in Thailand. Lots of reasons to enjoy and complain about both countries, depending on who you are 😊
Ahh yes, the Heat. We have just had a very long, hot and extremely dry summer in Perth West Australia with temperature above 40c an not a drop of rain save for the occasional thunder storm somewhere far from me. I'm afraid the folk back home in the UK would be dropping lie flys in those temperatures. Having said that, we actually have rain forecast over the next 3 days, not that I expect much rain. Talking of wealth. Well as you said, it's meaning is different for different people. For me the meaning of wealth is, family, friends, live experienced. When you're on your death bed, those are the things that will matter and give you comfort in those last momments. All the money in the world all the material possessions won't matter. Thanks Ryan keep blogging mate, love you're work
My wife died when we had three very young kids and I raised them to be contributing productive adults. Many manchildren would have failed in that role. There is nothing better than the unconditional love of your children.
Not everyone gets a wife and family that gives them plenty of quiet time, embrace it while it lasts 😆. Pretty warm here too in Singapore even after a rain
The past King Rama 9 issued guidance to his people in the last years of his life in the form of a Sufficiency Economy. I read it as guidance to everyone as individuals to live a good life within their means, participating in their family and community. There is nothing to be gained by being jealous of those with more. For anyone with a little time to research the subject I suggest you spend that time.
I have watched your videos for years and admire your tenacity in what you are achieving-----IDuring the hot season with no rain farmers complain their crops are dying ---during the rain season farmers complain of flooding ---Why cant the goverment escavate more reservoirs or the local farming community dig or escavate smaller reservoirs or ponds to balance nature----A question for you I have been married to a Thai lady for over 50 years and don't understand why Thai women are so "stubborn" not just my wife but relatives and friends
I have a yacht that I sail around SE Asia with my family over the past 9 years. Probably a better word for a 'yacht' is a sailboat. It's our floating, transporting, tiny home and pretty much an off-grid platform. Totally agree that wealth and happiness, for most people, is TIME for yourself. As you said, you need money to gain that time. But its not a lot of money that is needed. The trick is to know when not to become the slave to money.
I got back to the UK yesterday after 8 months in Chiang Mai. Yes, it's super hot, but believe me, I'd rather be back in Thailand. The UK is a sh!thole! I'll be back myself very soon. All the best, stay safe.
Your a very interesting chap, Whether I come to Thailand or not, I am enjoying listening to you, Good luck, it’s nice to see a good guy like yourself coming back and winning.
Bonnie scotland will alaways be home gives me things that Thailand would never be able to ever . Where ever inam what am doing scotland is home my spiritual home is the Philippines 🇵🇭
I've been living in Thailand for 13 years and in mop 2024 has been the hottest so far, I'm from the UK, and despite the heat I will stay in Thailand till I die
Such a lovely place you created, my wife and I are in a village in Pattani (Panare) south Thailand no grass just sand lot we are watering twice a day but still the heat is killing us. More trees more cooler the yard is our goal.
I was In Asia this time last year. Sweat was pouring out of me from just sightseeing. I know it gets to you this time of year., probably some air pollution there as well to booth. When it got really bad for me, I reminded myself of those unfortunate GI's that were dispatched to Vietnam during the 60's from places like Minnesota or even Alaska, and how those poor souls were literally dropped off into some base in the jungle and had to endure 4 day combat patrols in the same conditions as we are discussing here.
So very true your comments regarding "wealth". I live in a small house up in Chiang Mai area. I am nowhere near as active as you, but I am very content with life. No amount of money could replace the day to day experiences I enjoy here. I reckon --- different strokes for different folks.
Drip watering, using recycled plastic bottles & containers, is cheap/easy & might help some of your plants survive the heat. Just poke a small hole in the bottle/container, to allow a tiny stream or series of drops to flow, over a span of an hour or two. Here in Central California, we get 40C temps during the summer on a regular basis, and I place the drip bottles around the plants which would otherwise wilt & die in the heat. I refill the bottles twice per day, on the hottest days. Note: the tiny hole will likely clog often, so it is necessary to check for this regularly. I just use a steel pin to clear the clog - easy peasy. Great content, as usual. :)
I always wanted to live a life like you …. Away from the western world, having a simple farm live in nature. I tried 2 times but always the wrong girl.,.. only about money.
You are a very savvy man. I suspect you are one of those who would do well in UK if you chose. Many of those who whine about the UK simply can’t cut it there. Probably won’t cut it in Thailand either. I think you make it look easy. The time time with your young family that is super special.
I am a new subscriber and loved your birthday video,and I have just watched this video, you have done a great job with your farm and house you should be very proud of what you have achieved. Money is very important but quality of life is more important and you seem to have achieved a good quality of life with a loving family around you. I am trying to watch your earlier videos because you have provided some good information in them , I don’t do bit coin myself but I understand that it is freedom from a maybe cashless society and de banking. Keep doing what you believe is the best for you and your family, personally wish you success in your life.
.. I recall April 2005 in isaan was extremely hot.. no ac.. had to jump in shower every 30mins and walk around with wet towels on.. April is often extremely hot..
It's nice feeling safe and having your children safe right I am sure you can call relatives in UK CAN you I assume it's expensive!! To call and if you wanted to go to the UK HOW EXPENSIVE IS IT! YES I would even like to hear stories like when you grew up and when Damo grew up!! Like do you do any meditation yoga?
Hy Ryan, been here in Khon Kaen for 12 years now and this is certainly the hottest that I have ever recorded here. Having said that, it is only a few degrees hotter with my thermometer in the shade hitting 44.9 yesterday around 15:30. But the night time temperature is a lot hotter never dropping below 30 degrees for the last 8 days. I think that, plus the hot wind constantly blowing makes it feel as if we are living in a convection oven! Looking forward to you developing your bird farm and expanding your range of breeds. Although when in UK I kept various breeds of chicken, including Silkies, Appenzeller, Sussex, Wyandotte, Rhode Island Red and various hybrids, I have never kept any of the bigger heavy chickens like Brahmas, Buff Orpington or Cochin. Maybe you might want to give them I go as they are great talking points and mostly very friendly. I have never understood Bitcoin so I keep well away. Don't forget to keep hydrated. God bless you, Damo and the family and everything that you do. 😅❤🙏
I always think about you, Ryan, as a guy who's successfully managed to create his own "Bag End" in a preserved Shire. And unlike Bilbo, you managed to have a great, healthy and happy family around you. When you rant about the situation in the UK, I'm not sure that naysayers are critical about your opinions, they are just jealous about you and the richness how your life. What did you do with the carport? Do you intend to get a new one?
@thenakedguru do hot and I'm wondering if you've considered these couple of things that are commonplace here in Australia where most parts of the country can experience 40C+temperatures occasionally, or even regularly during the summer: Shutters/Blinds/Covers on the windows exposed to the sun, that you have open or close depending on weather. Reducing the light entering through windows, keeps the house cooler and saves on electricity. Setting up a 'dripper' system for the garden. This promotes a stronger plant root systems and in turn stronger plants able to better survive extreme weather conditions. Being from an English background, if it's unfamiliar to you, it's laying a suitable type of hose under the soil surface and having rigid pencil thin pipes rising up to just above the surface as required near the base of plants, that drip-feed the water, which is better for plants and time saving for the home owner once installed. There's even special types of hoses these days that can be laid either just under the soil surface, or in top of the soil but under mulch that slowly released water over a period of maybe hours. I believe they're made of a certain type of rubber with many, many tiny holes.
The heat there is truly apocalyptic now. Im leaving sydney thats 10 degrees tonight for Thailand in 4 weeks. Ill be staying at my place in Hua Hin for 2 months. Everyone there i know talks predominantly about the extreme heat. Many are saying its unfit for human existance . Its easy to feel that. But us humans are a stubbiurn lot 🤪😅
Incredible place you guys have and didn't realise you had a farm, more updates on this especially please, my other half would love this! And for me, stack the sats brother, oh deffo you should bring more Bitcoin to the education table. Absolutely the preservation of wealth, passing your hard earned money and time to offspring, and of course work/life balance. Preserving your assets is key.
It feels hotter in S.E. Asia, about 15 years ago it was more bearable, but I'm now wearing a 15kg "meat suit", so it's maybe not surprising and I sweat all day long. The locals on the other hand seem to be able to get through the day without breaking a sweat. Tree canopies make a huge difference, there can be 15c + degrees difference but you need larger trees and don't know how that can impact farming. Probably can't farm most crops under trees.
I left Asia ( because I have a good family back home ) especially once I got married, just me and wife in Asia lol (so lonely, better to bring her to my country)
The money you would spend on airfares, accommodation, food in England or any Western country would pay for 24\7 air-conditioning in rural thailand for a whole year.
I'm in Koh Chang now after spending a month in the North of England visiting family, the pool in my little place now is hotter than the bath water at my mother place.... no joke !
Hey man, 4 years ago we broke the heat record at 49 degrees in Canada! The planet is angry and trying to heal but the sun sets the temperature in the end. I think the northern and southern hemispheres are seeing more drastic changes than the equatorial zone. Major wild fires every year now in North America that comes with smoke you can taste. Europe is seeing flooding and snow accumulation like nobody seems to remember. If the rains stop here, well then I guess there will be no choice but to leave in order to survive.
Grow aleo vera eat every 1 big leave and your body temp. Will drop and you can handle the heat much better ,i work 6 hours outside 2 hour training every day,every day holiday, greetings from Kao yai
H ha you are all good fella, its getting hotter. Me and the wife were complaining about how hot BKK is. Look into this around two years ago Thailand signed up for atmospheric modification and they have been spraying the sky and since then I think it has got hotter.
Your style of presentation is unique calm and sincere. Really enjoy your channel you have a wonderful life. Earned and well deserved. Keep it going my friend and yes I understand the heat issue 😢
Thanks mate for your wisdom and look around the farm my girlfriend lives in roi et and the heat is crazy at the moment good to see a guy talking since about Thailand and living the rural family life. Take care 🙏🙏🙏🇹🇭
I live in Darwin , NT, Australia and the weather is the exactly the same as Thailand !! I noticed you said your aircon was on 22c . You will find that you will save a considerable amount of power if you up the temp to 24-25.c. You will find also with the heat in Thailand lately( I’m in khon Kaen province at the moment ) your aircon will never reach 22c anyway which means the compressor in the unit is running at full capacity constantly without turning off / slowing down and therefore consuming maximum energy. ( google it) I also think the Thai government put some advisory notice out showing the comparaison in energy consumption depending on what temperature the aircon unit is set at( google that too) Now I was going to mention it before when you were building your house regarding the colour choice of tin roofing !! White or off white is the coolest color… your roof cavity inside your house must be like and oven?. I presume you have used the Tin that you get in Thailand which has the insulation glue to it? I think that is supposed to work quite well but not to sure though I have heard after a period of time it delaminates from the tin roofing and falls off? In Australia they use roof insulation( google that too) which reduces heat transfer by radiation, convection and conduction. My house in Darwin I think has roof sarking to reduce the heat transfer from the tin roof though to my ceiling . I then placed ceiling insulation batts on top of my ceiling to stop any further transfer of heat from my tin roof through the ceiling!! I then placed vents at either end of the roof eves and then installed 2 whirly bird fans( Google that) on the tin roof!! These vent fans then remove any hot air building up in the roof/ceiling cavity with fresh air entering the via the eve s. I now find my house is so much easier to cool!! There is paint you can buy that when applied to your tin roof also reduces the temperature of the tin roof !! I have used it on previous houses I have owned in Darwin but over time there is a reduction in its effectiveness and requires another application of the paint!! Regarding your dying wilted plants Google water retaining crystals I use them and find them quite effective !!
Its remaining cold even though we are almost in May heating is still coming on at night , regarding having a yacht as my dad used to say a lot of money to have on a bit of string lol . Always interesting and informative and entertaining and thought provoking
The first year we lived in Buriram it was over 40 degrees for three weeks straight. It was hotter in 2017 than it is now, but this year is a bit hot. I look forward to the rainy season and then the cool season. The good thing about 43 degree weather is that it makes 34 degrees seem cool.
I love the hot weather Ryan But I’m sure that 41 in Thailand would certainly kill even the strongest of us , as I have been there when it’s around 35 , and it feels more like 40 back here in Melbourne Australia as we don’t have the humidity that Thailand has .🤣
42 years since i first went to Thailand it was and still is third world in 1982 i thought it was the bees knees it isnt the smoke in chang mai will never be addressed even though its not difficult move forward at least would try but no chance unfortunately its a one party state back in england now without the nonsense i used to think
heres an idea ryan. since everybody is scared to go outside cause its hot. how about convince that honeypot of a wifey to have a out door shower with you. then you guys can go into that unused hut and have a 3 hour tour. where you cant find where one ends and the other begins. no need to talk at all. by the way the whole world has gone crazy so stay where you are. JESUS will return soon
we all have to find some peace in our time guru the trouble is everybody is brainwashed into thinking they need all the money and material assets its rubbish find a happy place its simple but you have to have a brain to see it
Banana don't grow on trees. They are the world's largest herbaceous plant. The stems are edible. You can find the stems sold for food at some of the bigger markets.
As much as the uk getting bashed in the comments . There’s no place like home. Being around your own people no language barrier. Thailand they treat us farang like we from another planet .
micks thai travels great day here in uk lovely walk around my local park a nice free bus ride back from park went to rare breeds centre Nice to walk around and not fry To all those negative people who post garbage about uk, it really depends on the area you live and your circumstances, but i do enjoy derbyshie and the walks, which i cant in thailand its too hot And i can say like for like the food prices are not at all bad as i will show on my vlogs for the next month Enjoying my time with family and friens and also the travel over here in uk, wales and maybe scotland if i have time Enjoy your time wherever you are
Learning English from the TV is far more fun for a kid than learning at school. Our kids learnt Chinese because we only let them watch their shows in Chinese. I grew up in rural Australia, very very occasionally it would hit 50. But these days when it occasionally hits 50 people cry black and blue about it being the end of the world. But it was like where you are, very low humidity (your phone says 23% humidity). I'd personally take 48 degrees at 23% humidity, over 41 degrees at 80% humidity like we get here in Taiwan. :).
From your story analogy to reality. You've already achieve your successful live goal like otherworlder protagonist. - Self reliant Wealth - Favorite wife and dreamt family children & favorite pets. - Custom house built, Personal favorite garden & farm & Slow life. That's what's man's final dream & goal.
Heat is one thing but the drought it killing us up north because the people continue to burn the mountains and the smoke is still terrible. Two new forest fires raging right now in the mountains so it's going to be ugly tomorrow.
I've been back in the UK a week it's cold and raining. I was there for April and it was 40+ every day. At first I was thinking it's okay it will get colder on a night. But it was worse trying to sleep in 30+ at night 😂😂😂 got used to it in the end. Id love to be back there
I've been in Bitcoin since 2017 I even started a Bitcoin check group we had a meeting at the margin bar in Pattaya Thailand this is when Bitcoin was 15,000 a piece I got tired of trying to tell them and repeat rinse and repeat I told him the dollar cost average DCA and no one listens so I just gave up so I understand when you say you cannot sell nobody on bitcoin they have to do their own research😅😅😅
Good news maybe😅! As I understand, crazy hot season almost done. Normal hot season come along and chilled hot season come after. But it is good to get out to cold weather for a while😊
The apprehension I have towards BTC is it's real world utility. We use currency to buy goods, services and investments. Currencies arent the investment itself because they dont produce or add value. The only way BTC works as an investment is hoping you can sell it to the next guy for more. When buying stocks I'm investing in a company that makes stuff. BTC has performed very well, and it has utility as a currency, but since it's value is purely speculative (doesnt do anything, just holding it hoping to see it for more) as an investment because it's impossible to value. With a company you can value it based on its machinery, it's IP etc. What is BTC value based off, how do you value it to know whether its over or under priced?
Same as the gold value, it is a free market valued commodity - price is determined by hardness, demand and supply-- it really shouldn’t be compared to a currency the way gold is no longer a currency per se
@thenakedguru As part of a wider portfolio, the role of gold is to reduce volatility. Since gold is negatively correlated with stocks, it softens the blow when stocks go down. I'll have to take a look in BTC correlation with stocks, I believe its positively correlated. However, it's a new asset and it was born at the beginning of the longest bull run in history. So it's too early to tell what role it can play in my portfolio It's an interesting topic. Have you ever heard of the Rai Stones? They're these massive rocks on a Pacific island that was used as their currency. So big everyone can see them and they're ownership was known via word of mouth on the small community.
I own stocks, Gold and BTC. Over the last 10 years, gold’s return on investment (ROI) in USD is seeing -0.25% and the S&P 500 is showing +277%. Both these benchmarks pale in comparison to Bitcoin - 437,171% since 2011. As mentioned in the video I will not attempt to sell BTC, as until one understands it, they will either remain on the sidelines, or buy it only to sell it into the volatility. But will leave the below. Best of luck 👍 ruclips.net/video/yEo0sfXTtnE/видео.htmlsi=KRTiFHtj6PvSZQZr
@thenakedguru I hold gold too, but I don't mind that it's not gaining returns because its purpose is to reduce portfolio volatility. My investing style is textbook traditional. Focusing on asset class allocation and being boring. As time goes on, it seems like BTC isnt going away, so it's about time I open my mind and learn. Thanks for the link and info !
I live in bangkok and was at my friends bar, and 3 musicians from Tom Jones live band (he played the new emsphere arena a couple months back) came in and one of them was a diehard btc guy, we talked for 2 hours about it lol. always fun convos talking to ppl who know.
Have you considered ☝that it might not be the world that's getting hotter... What if instead... it's YOU that's getting hotter and hotter by the day! Upsides: The world isn't ending. You will have to fight just to keep the women off of you. Downsides: You will have to fight just to keep the women off of you. You will have to shell out for another upgraded AC system. Worth considering.

I have been back a month in the UK after 5 months in rual Thailand and believe me you don't want to be in the UK
Yea I was being a little sarcastic 😁
I agree 🤣
Agreed
Again another person that hasn't spent much time in rural Thailand or comes from another too good place in uk
My Thai wife couldn’t wait to get back to the Uk after a month visiting family in the 40degree heat. I returned to the UK after 20 years living in Thailand. Lots of reasons to enjoy and complain about both countries, depending on who you are 😊
Ahh yes, the Heat. We have just had a very long, hot and extremely dry summer in Perth West Australia with temperature above 40c an not a drop of rain save for the occasional thunder storm somewhere far from me.
I'm afraid the folk back home in the UK would be dropping lie flys in those temperatures.
Having said that, we actually have rain forecast over the next 3 days, not that I expect much rain.
Talking of wealth. Well as you said, it's meaning is different for different people.
For me the meaning of wealth is, family, friends, live experienced. When you're on your death bed, those are the things that will matter and give you comfort in those last momments. All the money in the world all the material possessions won't matter.
Thanks Ryan keep blogging mate, love you're work
Health is your wealth 🙏
Yes. As long as your happy in life. Happy and healthy is everything really. That's all you need
You are great person! Hard working! Good dad! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼👍👍👍😀😀😀

Yes, very aware, knowledgeable and truthful Ryan is
My wife died when we had three very young kids and I raised them to be contributing productive adults. Many manchildren would have failed in that role. There is nothing better than the unconditional love of your children.
Sorry for your loss 🙏
It is crazy hot this year. Even at 3 am Chiang Mai is at 33-34 degrees. Time for rain dancing.
You're so right, being a real man is providing for/looking after those you care about.
Seeing them happy, makes a real man happy.
It’s over 100 degrees there all day long 😂 everyday at 90 degrees your plants stop absorbing nutrients
@@anonymousmc7727 when will it cool down?

Pro tip about plants that you're not using for food, have a soil dominated by sand. It will keep the moisture far more efficiently.
Thanks for the tips!
😊❤❤❤❤❤from uk
It is beautiful farm...nicely spread out. Well planned.
Thank you
I've been living in Thailand for 13 years and in mop 2024 has been the hottest so far, I'm from the UK, and despite the heat I will stay in Thailand till I die
Such a lovely place you created, my wife and I are in a village in Pattani (Panare) south Thailand no grass just sand lot we are watering twice a day but still the heat is killing us. More trees more cooler the yard is our goal.
Yes more trees helps alot!
I was In Asia this time last year. Sweat was pouring out of me from just sightseeing.
I know it gets to you this time of year., probably some air pollution there as well to booth.
When it got really bad for me, I reminded myself of those unfortunate GI's that were dispatched to Vietnam during the 60's from places like Minnesota or even Alaska, and how those poor souls were literally dropped off into some base in the jungle and had to endure 4 day combat patrols in the same conditions as we are discussing here.
So very true your comments regarding "wealth". I live in a small house up in Chiang Mai area. I am nowhere near as active as you, but I am very content with life. No amount of money could replace the day to day experiences I enjoy here.

Thats it my friend
Come to Australia, summers can get to 45C, no one complains😂. Poms never stops complaining 😂.
Humidity in Thailand makes it feel much higher
Here in Phuket it is very hot. Been here 27 years and this is the hottest we have known.
A lot of long timers telling me this Alex 👍
Drip watering, using recycled plastic bottles & containers, is cheap/easy & might help some of your plants survive the heat. Just poke a small hole in the bottle/container, to allow a tiny stream or series of drops to flow, over a span of an hour or two. Here in Central California, we get 40C temps during the summer on a regular basis, and I place the drip bottles around the plants which would otherwise wilt & die in the heat. I refill the bottles twice per day, on the hottest days.
Note: the tiny hole will likely clog often, so it is necessary to check for this regularly. I just use a steel pin to clear the clog - easy peasy.
Great content, as usual. :)
Top tops thanks 🙏
your philosophy is solid mate. cheers!
Much appreciated
I always wanted to live a life like you …. Away from the western world, having a simple farm live in nature.

Its hard to find the right one, but i would say dont give up on the dream

Bangkok was awful April. 40s, feels like 47c. 10 minutes outside only. Chaiyaphum was slightly better 😅
I am a new subscriber and loved your birthday video,and I have just watched this video, you have done a great job with your farm and house you should be very proud of what you have achieved. Money is very important but quality of life is more important and you seem to have achieved a good quality of life with a loving family around you. I am trying to watch your earlier videos because you have provided some good information in them , I don’t do bit coin myself but I understand that it is freedom from a maybe cashless society and de banking. Keep doing what you believe is the best for you and your family, personally wish you success in your life.
.. I recall April 2005 in isaan was extremely hot.. no ac.. had to jump in shower every 30mins and walk around with wet towels on.. April is often extremely hot..
You are so right.....Happiness is all the wealth you need x
It's nice feeling safe and having your children safe right I am sure you can call relatives in UK CAN you I assume it's expensive!! To call and if you wanted to go to the UK HOW EXPENSIVE IS IT! YES I would even like to hear stories like when you grew up and when Damo grew up!! Like do you do any meditation yoga?
You're 100% correct, the UK is totally crap, crumbling, chaotic,
Uk is finished. Leeds has elected a radical Islamist on basis of Palestine as a local mayor! Tells you everything about the uk
May 9th, in the UK it is blue skies, sunshine. light, breeze and 18C - perfect. 20 tomorrow 21 the next day. Who's is that big house?
Hy Ryan, been here in Khon Kaen for 12 years now and this is certainly the hottest that I have ever recorded here. Having said that, it is only a few degrees hotter with my thermometer in the shade hitting 44.9 yesterday around 15:30. But the night time temperature is a lot hotter never dropping below 30 degrees for the last 8 days. I think that, plus the hot wind constantly blowing makes it feel as if we are living in a convection oven! Looking forward to you developing your bird farm and expanding your range of breeds. Although when in UK I kept various breeds of chicken, including Silkies, Appenzeller, Sussex, Wyandotte, Rhode Island Red and various hybrids, I have never kept any of the bigger heavy chickens like Brahmas, Buff Orpington or Cochin. Maybe you might want to give them I go as they are great talking points and mostly very friendly. I have never understood Bitcoin so I keep well away. Don't forget to keep hydrated. God bless you, Damo and the family and everything that you do. 😅❤🙏
I always think about you, Ryan, as a guy who's successfully managed to create his own "Bag End" in a preserved Shire. And unlike Bilbo, you managed to have a great, healthy and happy family around you. When you rant about the situation in the UK, I'm not sure that naysayers are critical about your opinions, they are just jealous about you and the richness how your life.
What did you do with the carport? Do you intend to get a new one?
@thenakedguru do hot and I'm wondering if you've considered these couple of things that are commonplace here in Australia where most parts of the country can experience 40C+temperatures occasionally, or even regularly during the summer:
Shutters/Blinds/Covers on the windows exposed to the sun, that you have open or close depending on weather. Reducing the light entering through windows, keeps the house cooler and saves on electricity.
Setting up a 'dripper' system for the garden. This promotes a stronger plant root systems and in turn stronger plants able to better survive extreme weather conditions. Being from an English background, if it's unfamiliar to you, it's laying a suitable type of hose under the soil surface and having rigid pencil thin pipes rising up to just above the surface as required near the base of plants, that drip-feed the water, which is better for plants and time saving for the home owner once installed. There's even special types of hoses these days that can be laid either just under the soil surface, or in top of the soil but under mulch that slowly released water over a period of maybe hours. I believe they're made of a certain type of rubber with many, many tiny holes.
The heat there is truly apocalyptic now. Im leaving sydney thats 10 degrees tonight for Thailand in 4 weeks. Ill be staying at my place in Hua Hin for 2 months. Everyone there i know talks predominantly about the extreme heat. Many are saying its unfit for human existance . Its easy to feel that. But us humans are a stubbiurn lot 🤪😅
Incredible place you guys have and didn't realise you had a farm, more updates on this especially please, my other half would love this!
And for me, stack the sats brother, oh deffo you should bring more Bitcoin to the education table. Absolutely the preservation of wealth, passing your hard earned money and time to offspring, and of course work/life balance. Preserving your assets is key.
It feels hotter in S.E. Asia, about 15 years ago it was more bearable, but I'm now wearing a 15kg "meat suit", so it's maybe not surprising and I sweat all day long. The locals on the other hand seem to be able to get through the day without breaking a sweat. Tree canopies make a huge difference, there can be 15c + degrees difference but you need larger trees and don't know how that can impact farming. Probably can't farm most crops under trees.
Why Thailand and not say..Spain or Portugal? Aren't they better choices than Asia or not?
I left Asia ( because I have a good family back home ) especially once I got married, just me and wife in Asia lol (so lonely, better to bring her to my country)
The money you would spend on airfares, accommodation, food in England or any Western country would pay for 24\7 air-conditioning in rural thailand for a whole year.
I'm in Koh Chang now after spending a month in the North of England visiting family, the pool in my little place now is hotter than the bath water at my mother place.... no joke !
Stay humble and stack sats , Hodl ! 🏖️
Hey man, 4 years ago we broke the heat record at 49 degrees in Canada! The planet is angry and trying to heal but the sun sets the temperature in the end. I think the northern and southern hemispheres are seeing more drastic changes than the equatorial zone. Major wild fires every year now in North America that comes with smoke you can taste. Europe is seeing flooding and snow accumulation like nobody seems to remember. If the rains stop here, well then I guess there will be no choice but to leave in order to survive.
Grow aleo vera eat every 1 big leave and your body temp. Will drop and you can handle the heat much better ,i work 6 hours outside 2 hour training every day,every day holiday, greetings from Kao yai
H ha you are all good fella, its getting hotter. Me and the wife were complaining about how hot BKK is. Look into this around two years ago Thailand signed up for atmospheric modification and they have been spraying the sky and since then I think it has got hotter.
This guy always. Chear me up. Stay safe always. Was there last year and yes very hot. ..I back october to my peacefully place 🎉
Your style of presentation is unique calm and sincere. Really enjoy your channel you have a wonderful life. Earned and well deserved. Keep it going my friend and yes I understand the heat issue 😢
I live in Oz and it gets into the high 4s.Even though I have air-conditioning,a good quality fan at the end of my bed makes a massive difference
I bought bitcoin back in the day when it was 1100$ it went down to 900$ and i got scared and sold it... Not the best choice. But hind sight is 20/20
Thanks mate for your wisdom and look around the farm my girlfriend lives in roi et and the heat is crazy at the moment good to see a guy talking since about Thailand and living the rural family life. Take care 🙏🙏🙏🇹🇭
Our journey around the sun. Such is life. Good to see your all happy brother that's they key. Bless ya🙏🙏
I live in Darwin , NT, Australia and the weather is the exactly the same as Thailand !! I noticed you said your aircon was on 22c . You will find that you will save a considerable amount of power if you up the temp to 24-25.c. You will find also with the heat in Thailand lately( I’m in khon Kaen province at the moment ) your aircon will never reach 22c anyway which means the compressor in the unit is running at full capacity constantly without turning off / slowing down and therefore consuming maximum energy. ( google it) I also think the Thai government put some advisory notice out showing the comparaison in energy consumption depending on what temperature the aircon unit is set at( google that too)
Now I was going to mention it before when you were building your house regarding the colour choice of tin roofing !! White or off white is the coolest color… your roof cavity inside your house must be like and oven?. I presume you have used the Tin that you get in Thailand which has the insulation glue to it? I think that is supposed to work quite well but not to sure though I have heard after a period of time it delaminates from the tin roofing and falls off? In Australia they use roof insulation( google that too) which reduces heat transfer by radiation, convection and conduction. My house in Darwin I think has roof sarking to reduce the heat transfer from the tin roof though to my ceiling . I then placed ceiling insulation batts on top of my ceiling to stop any further transfer of heat from my tin roof through the ceiling!! I then placed vents at either end of the roof eves and then installed 2 whirly bird fans( Google that) on the tin roof!! These vent fans then remove any hot air building up in the roof/ceiling cavity with fresh air entering the via the eve s. I now find my house is so much easier to cool!!
There is paint you can buy that when applied to your tin roof also reduces the temperature of the tin roof !! I have used it on previous houses I have owned in Darwin but over time there is a reduction in its effectiveness and requires another application of the paint!!
Regarding your dying wilted plants Google water retaining crystals I use them and find them quite effective !!
Its remaining cold even though we are almost in May heating is still coming on at night , regarding having a yacht as my dad used to say a lot of money to have on a bit of string lol . Always interesting and informative and entertaining and thought provoking
Cheers Michael
I have $200k in cryptocurrency
The first year we lived in Buriram it was over 40 degrees for three weeks straight. It was hotter in 2017 than it is now, but this year is a bit hot. I look forward to the rainy season and then the cool season. The good thing about 43 degree weather is that it makes 34 degrees seem cool.
I love the hot weather Ryan
But I’m sure that 41 in Thailand would certainly kill even the strongest of us , as I have been there when it’s around 35 , and it feels more like 40 back here in Melbourne Australia as we don’t have the humidity that Thailand has .🤣
42 years since i first went to Thailand it was and still is third world in 1982 i thought it was the bees knees it isnt the smoke in chang mai will never be addressed even though its not difficult move forward at least would try but no chance unfortunately its a one party state back in england now without the nonsense i used to think
Elon is on a personal mission, regardless of this wealth. But I understand what you mean.
heres an idea ryan. since everybody is scared to go outside cause its hot. how about convince that honeypot of a wifey to have a out door shower with you. then you guys can go into that unused hut and have a 3 hour tour. where you cant find where one ends and the other begins. no need to talk at all. by the way the whole world has gone crazy so stay where you are. JESUS will return soon
Fine we can swap houses for as long as you want .
Yeah I’m not a fan of extremes at either end. I live in Sydney which is pretty moderate comfortable weather most of the time.
we all have to find some peace in our time guru the trouble is everybody is brainwashed into thinking they need all the money and material assets its rubbish find a happy place its simple but you have to have a brain to see it
I had no idea pigs ate banana trees
Banana don't grow on trees. They are the world's largest herbaceous plant. The stems are edible. You can find the stems sold for food at some of the bigger markets.
Would you not consider a large rubber pool with steps. Don't know how you stick that heat 😅 Mind you I would like a few months of sunny days😅😊
You should dig a rabbit hole for the rabbits. Would he cooler underground for them.
@thenakedguru I would be very interested to hear more about Bitcoin et al. Keep up the amazing vlogs Ryan!
As much as the uk getting bashed in the comments . There’s no place like home. Being around your own people no language barrier. Thailand they treat us farang like we from another planet .
micks thai travels great day here in uk lovely walk around my local park a nice free bus ride back from park went to rare breeds centre
Nice to walk around and not fry
To all those negative people who post garbage about uk, it really depends on the area you live and your circumstances, but i do enjoy derbyshie and the walks, which i cant in thailand its too hot
And i can say like for like the food prices are not at all bad as i will show on my vlogs for the next month
Enjoying my time with family and friens and also the travel over here in uk, wales and maybe scotland if i have time
Enjoy your time wherever you are
You need a real "itoo" to cut your brushes, it's only about 170B
Keep it up. We enjoy your content. Maria and Col
Thanks so much
Mate,the heat, 44c here, going to the condo in jomtien in 2 days 31 c there❤
Some people dont want to stop they like it like that they think time is of the essences in life been there done that
Learning English from the TV is far more fun for a kid than learning at school. Our kids learnt Chinese because we only let them watch their shows in Chinese. I grew up in rural Australia, very very occasionally it would hit 50. But these days when it occasionally hits 50 people cry black and blue about it being the end of the world. But it was like where you are, very low humidity (your phone says 23% humidity). I'd personally take 48 degrees at 23% humidity, over 41 degrees at 80% humidity like we get here in Taiwan. :).
Quite right Jay 🙏🙏
From your story analogy to reality. You've already achieve your successful live goal like otherworlder protagonist.
- Self reliant Wealth
- Favorite wife and dreamt family children & favorite pets.
- Custom house built, Personal favorite garden & farm & Slow life.
That's what's man's final dream & goal.
San Pedro Ceremony sounds cool...

Heat is one thing but the drought it killing us up north because the people continue to burn the mountains and the smoke is still terrible. Two new forest fires raging right now in the mountains so it's going to be ugly tomorrow.
I've been back in the UK a week it's cold and raining. I was there for April and it was 40+ every day. At first I was thinking it's okay it will get colder on a night. But it was worse trying to sleep in 30+ at night 😂😂😂 got used to it in the end. Id love to be back there
I meant Vlogging, damn spell check
I've been in Bitcoin since 2017 I even started a Bitcoin check group we had a meeting at the margin bar in Pattaya Thailand this is when Bitcoin was 15,000 a piece I got tired of trying to tell them and repeat rinse and repeat I told him the dollar cost average DCA and no one listens so I just gave up so I understand when you say you cannot sell nobody on bitcoin they have to do their own research😅😅😅
Also gave up 😁
The plants are dying because of human activity in mass global warming
My wife said she never felt it this hot in Roi Et. If It gets to 40° it don’t last very long.
So many women on facebook have single status, yet have pics with kids or a husband also while wearing a wedding ring. Is that normal?
I don’t know I’ve never seen this but I don’t have other women on my fb 👍
Good news maybe😅! As I understand, crazy hot season almost done. Normal hot season come along and chilled hot season come after. But it is good to get out to cold weather for a while😊
The apprehension I have towards BTC is it's real world utility. We use currency to buy goods, services and investments. Currencies arent the investment itself because they dont produce or add value.
The only way BTC works as an investment is hoping you can sell it to the next guy for more. When buying stocks I'm investing in a company that makes stuff.
BTC has performed very well, and it has utility as a currency, but since it's value is purely speculative (doesnt do anything, just holding it hoping to see it for more) as an investment because it's impossible to value.
With a company you can value it based on its machinery, it's IP etc. What is BTC value based off, how do you value it to know whether its over or under priced?
Same as the gold value, it is a free market valued commodity - price is determined by hardness, demand and supply-- it really shouldn’t be compared to a currency the way gold is no longer a currency per se
@thenakedguru As part of a wider portfolio, the role of gold is to reduce volatility. Since gold is negatively correlated with stocks, it softens the blow when stocks go down.
I'll have to take a look in BTC correlation with stocks, I believe its positively correlated. However, it's a new asset and it was born at the beginning of the longest bull run in history. So it's too early to tell what role it can play in my portfolio
It's an interesting topic. Have you ever heard of the Rai Stones? They're these massive rocks on a Pacific island that was used as their currency. So big everyone can see them and they're ownership was known via word of mouth on the small community.
I own stocks, Gold and BTC. Over the last 10 years, gold’s return on investment (ROI) in USD is seeing -0.25% and the S&P 500 is showing +277%. Both these benchmarks pale in comparison to Bitcoin - 437,171% since 2011. As mentioned in the video I will not attempt to sell BTC, as until one understands it, they will either remain on the sidelines, or buy it only to sell it into the volatility. But will leave the below. Best of luck 👍
ruclips.net/video/yEo0sfXTtnE/видео.htmlsi=KRTiFHtj6PvSZQZr
@thenakedguru I hold gold too, but I don't mind that it's not gaining returns because its purpose is to reduce portfolio volatility.
My investing style is textbook traditional. Focusing on asset class allocation and being boring. As time goes on, it seems like BTC isnt going away, so it's about time I open my mind and learn.
Thanks for the link and info !
@@ctb1977 its an embarrassment that so much real money is tied up in nothingness
41 C = 106 F = too dang hot.
45.6 C every day 🥵🥵
I live in bangkok and was at my friends bar, and 3 musicians from Tom Jones live band (he played the new emsphere arena a couple months back) came in and one of them was a diehard btc guy, we talked for 2 hours about it lol. always fun convos talking to ppl who know.
when you know you know :)
Are all the kids yours?
we had this heat in the uk too few years ago it was hell
Have you considered ☝that it might not be the world that's getting hotter...
What if instead... it's YOU that's getting hotter and hotter by the day!
Upsides:
The world isn't ending.
You will have to fight just to keep the women off of you.
Downsides:
You will have to fight just to keep the women off of you.
You will have to shell out for another upgraded AC system.
Worth considering.
Your farm has really come on. Maria and Col.
Thank you 🙏
