What does it cost for cell phone/internet service there? Sorry if you said and I missed it
Comment from : @HeartFeltCommentFromBabyGirl

startup costs for an asian gf are not included in your estimate the sky is the limit haha
Comment from : @garyde9650

So much unnecessary expenditure with this guy Taxis gym phone calls massages, European food Unreal for long term, unless you’ve got an income????
Comment from : @neilmiddleton4165

Its a scam, bangkok at least is about the same cost as central europe, but it's still a 3rd world country - just at 1st world prices
Comment from : @CaneBTC

Thailand is a very poor food producing country You will pay a fortune if you want to est properly Orange juice is over twice the price of Gasoline, for example
Comment from : @scottwilliam7251

Most Thais do not earn more than 350$ month So 2000 $ is an amount of money here
Comment from : @valentinakadjvalentin8991

Great video! Question: Josh how do you know these water machines are legitimate? So many scammers in SE Asia

Comment from : @michaelwalden3655

Comment from : @sotonin

The view at 2:25 is very nice Seeing Centara Grand Beach Resort hotel and the beach curve with Khao Ta Kiab at its end with the evening light is something Is that a view from Hilton Hua Hin or nearby condo?
Comment from : @oNuKuBo

Comment from : @NyalBurns

Super cool video bro Yes I can be both easy It's as cheap as you'd like it to be or super expensive if you don't like to be "alone"
Comment from : @ThaiLifeChronicles

Luxury, quality, cheap, expensive; it’s all a matter of definition and a point of reference We all tick different and what may be cheap in my book, can be expensive for another person Bangkok can be affordable and ultra expensive All these YT videos are clickbait
Comment from : @EGO0808

Thailand completely fked
Comment from : @musicenjoyer

Another great informative vid mate, I've commented on a previous one of yours about Samui, which my wife and I lovewe're heading there again next year for 4 weeks to try a longer stayI've only started watching vids on HH and beginning to like it more, we're in our mid 50's and it looks like HH might be a better, cheaper option for us when we're ready for retirement cheers from NZ

Comment from : @nightravenonline

Thailand is a big old sausagefest, unless you like thai girls
Comment from : @alexanderalexanderski9762

Very realistic video of cost in Thailand I would say your food bill is a bit high, definitely cheaper in Bangkok but other items seem on par
Comment from : @paulzionsinger9355

Great advice Thank you
Comment from : @Monlnand

If you add a thai girlfriend to the mix, you're paying double 😮
Comment from : @markshaw1966

Your videos are very informative and well done You’re definitely a big cut above other travel vloggers Thanks
Comment from : @AzerPaul

I advise if stay long time in Thailand, avoid these water purifier machines As locals I got Ulcers as the pesticides remain unfilterd Even for cooking I use the best mineral water
Comment from : @hugueslecorre4893

Which travel insurance digital nomad have you got mate?
Comment from : @mattlambros2431

Dangerous Country …there should be a Government warning before people go there, if you don’t believe me, Google Road accidents and work that one out,
Comment from : @RobertSmith-rj9md

yeah that's about right add more for a woman
Comment from : @realgains1538

What sort of work do u do if u don't mind josh? I'm trying to figure out how to get out there and work remotely not something I'm used too but well seasoned in Thai life so would be buzzing to see if I could get out there and fund it
Comment from : @legend6463

Comment from : @yverak5504

Comment from : @robrobb4370

The whole world is expensive now For $2000 living in Sydney Australia you can pay rent that’s it
Comment from : @dinoturnbul

Very honest review these lads that say you can live like a king for 1000k sterling a month jokers🤣🤣
Comment from : @nickjones8867

Been going to Pattaya for 25 years to live there you need 2k sterling/ 100,000 Baht a month Thailand not cheap anymore
Comment from : @nickjones8867

I extremely surprised people fly all the way to Thailand to eat McDonalds and pizza 🤦🏽‍♂️
Comment from : @bobgoodi-jd4dx

Thailand is not cheap If you dont eat street food An food if you like to buy européen food it is dubble price fruit is cheap Pharmacie for tablets our vitamines is expensive Any européen cosmétique is ecpensive so we spend 4000 e rent 900e same i pay in paris
Comment from : @EstelleThai-Laten

Hey Josh Im going to be arriving in Hua Hin on the 15th of this month for at least 3 weeks, but not for the full month Any recommendations for a one bedroom or a good size studio? Or suggestions on the best way to go about booking it? Online or just arrive at reception Hope you can help Love the content and keep it up
Comment from : @gmax3548

Don’t be advertising this place brotha 🤩Nice to meet you man , great collection of videos 🧘‍♂️
Comment from : @TranquilDji

Hi Josh, can you recommend a good wash,dry and fold laundry in Hua hin , I’ll be there this winter , last winter in Phuket I got raked over the coals on the first one I went too, until I searched around and found a place that did the same exact job for 1/4 the price
Comment from : @johnmellyn2700

Appreciate the info, will be looking into my travel insurance that comes as a package with my bank account, wouldn’t be ideal to find out I’m only covered for a certain period if a situation arose that I needed medical treatment 👍🏽
Comment from : @Midlifehits

That is a crazy amount for water! It will be cheaper to buy a water filter for a few thousand Baht which you can use for a whole year and not have to carry up everyday
Comment from : @shane1948

ppl are just wast money -- me and wife only use 30000bath A month -- and is for condo wed full kitch and poll and gym and food 3 times a day and transport - wife make food --
Comment from : @nexusbob

Another great one Josh brWhat’s the social scene in Hua Hin like?brIts seems like it’s attracting 60 plus people mostly on YouTube and golfersbrAre there decent bars and good live music there too?brI have been considering Hua Hin but unsure about itbrI was in Samui recently and wasn’t that impressed and Phucket is way too busy and overpriced I reckon so I’m pondering a nice beach place that has an ok vibe but not too small and hua Hin isn’t that far from Bangkok or Koh Tao really so may be a good based to be from after Chiang mai
Comment from : @MJP1970

I spent £250 a month for my gym 😂
Comment from : @RebeccaDone-vl2ey

Hi Josh, thanks for the channel, my recollection of Hua Hin is that the beaches are horrible because the water is murky, sand medium soft & waves ( or the cleansing as I see it) fairly non existent, has that changed please?
Comment from : @liliindia

Girls and Booze is the Difference maker
Comment from : @bitemenow609

Nice video Josh Seems like a very good budget for your balanced lifestyle brbrMine would be similar, minus the monthly gym cost I’d probably be satisfied with the gym in the condo facility (if there’s one) I’m 53 years old now The days of hitting the gym hardcore are behind me 😂brbrThat would save me $180/month and I can put that money towards the “emergency funds” category 😊✌🏽
Comment from : @txg161

Bro the more and more videos I see about 2k living the more hopeful I am I will have a monthly budget of about $7300 usd and if I can save 4k a month that would be amazing and life changing
Comment from : @thedarkgreenmarine2100

That's on par for what I spend But it's $3,000 a month for me thanks to the crappy Canadian dollar
Comment from : @davewave36

$2,000 usd a month for Hua Hin is reasonable Bangkok is probably the same
Comment from : @louis20122

It’s expensive compared to what it used to cost , brbrBut this is what we have to consider , the west has become so expensive now, inflation over the last decade is out of control , brbrThe inflation in Thailand is probably comparable to the rest of the world but still puts it in an area of being much cheaper than living in the west
Comment from : @camwells9726

Hi Josh, many thanks for the useful video It’s so difficult to get a real handle on this due to so many varied accounts on it
Comment from : @JasonS-n5d

I struggle to spend $1000 a month in Thailand
Comment from : @joemann2178

Josh is right $2,000 or more is around what the average person might spend If you are coming as a tourist grab a hotel vs a Airbnb or rental You won't pay for water or electric You can save a lot on food by buying from street vendors I don't drink alcohol so that saved me some Nor do I need haircuts (bald)brbrCertain areas are more expensive as well
Comment from : @alawrence4969

The Thai govt recommends 65k pm and I feel that they've nailed it pretty much You don't want a shite room and to be counting your pennies at every turn Every time I have a 40 baht meal I'm eating again within the hour just like the Thais
