If you are thinking about moving to Thailand, you should think long term.
It is easy to get to Thailand and survive, however, just surviving can get old quick.
Who would be happy in a one room flat long term? Not me!
Costs in every country go up, and Thailand is no different.
Compared to 2004, 2024 Thailand has gotten way more expensive.
When you move to Thailand, it is imperative to think long term.
Is the money I have going to be enough in the next 10, 20 or 30 years as I get older?
Too many young people move here thinking they have got it made. Only to run out of money and be sent back home 1 – 10 years later. Not fun at all.
Costs will continue to rise, as you get older more medical bills and other costs you might not have planned for.
If you do plan to move to Thailand and want to stay the rest of your life, please ensure you figure in the cost 10, 20 and 30 years later.
You don’t want to move, buy a house, land, cars then figure out years later you can no longer afford it here.
