Actually even you do not drink at all it will still be easy for some and nearly impossible for others so what you said is a huge oversimplification of the issue. Whether you stay in your own country or move to Thailand some people are just going to be good at living on a budget while others will not be. Obviously anyone CAN live on that amount since millions of Thais do it with no problem. But whether a particular individual will do it or not is another story altogether. Anyway the biggest variable here after rent is food of course. Some people will spend less than 7000 a month on food and others might spend more than 30,000 a month on food without even realizing it. And of course, to live cheaply you not only need to eat mostly Thai food but you also have to find the cheaper Thai options. If you like to eat a lot of Western food however you will be in trouble. For example back home in California I could easily live on a food budget of $150 a month making all my own meals at home. But making those same dishes here would cost a fortune. The bottom line is if you only have $1000 a month and no savings this means the people who cannot budget well will be running out of money before the month is even half over. Also people have to keep in mind that your actual income here can vary a lot depending on the exchange rate. For example just a few years ago that $1000 was less than 30,000 baht a month and then about 6 months ago it was nearly 40,000 baht per month. So what you have to live on can vary drastically over time.
@@SLOBeachboy Dining In is a must. Many simple meals can be made at home for short money. Eating out when convenient, bars and entertainment will KILL any budget in any nation. Pattaya is not alone with that reality. $1000...best of luck mate 😅
Easy, I spend that much and i have Thai GF. My rent is 6k baht/month in Jomtien. Big swimming pool, sauna etc .We go to the gym (2k a month) eat healthy, enjoy the beach. My scooter is 3.5k/month). I'm not on a budget when i'm in Thailand, im just not a big spender and my GF is also not a big spender and that helps ALOT. If you don't drink every day and go out. Its easy on that budget. And during the week you spend less and then in the weekends you can spend a little bit more and go out, play some pool, get massage, etc.. Works very good.

it's not a dream day once you get accustomed to the surroundings. you can only walk the same beach so many times, and eat only 3 small meals as your daily expenses. Things like getting semi-regular massages or fruit treats, ice creams, and a variety of other diversions or activities throughout your day in order to make it fun will add up. guaranteed you drink more than you think you would once you've been there, especially if you make friends. also no transport was included, nor any average for out of city travel. guarantee you that 1k a month lifestyle would be boring af pretty quick.
@@johns783 I'm just a simple man. I actually enjoy writing so I feel like the peace would help my mind to focus on my writing goals. I practice omad also so one big meal at 5pm is good for me.

When you take into account, the sad amount the UK gives to pensioners, that is a good lifestyle, and more than pensioners would be able to do here. Beer £5-8 (depends where you live) energy costs, as in electric and gas are costing £200+ a moonth, water at £30 a week (aprox) food costs through the roof here. To a pensioner from the UK that would be paradise!
I live in a rural village in Chonburi. House and car paid already so it's electricity, wifi, diesel, food, insurance and beer. I spend about 35-40K a month. Depends on the beer consumption.
I think 1500 would work in place like Jomtien, but you must refrain from the nightlife at least keep it minimal. I think 2K is perfect budget for Thailand or Philippines
Many in the Philippine's are happy satisfied and doing well on $1000 - $1500 SS checks - some even with girl friends. -- A somewhat frugal life is needed I'm sure ? -- Quite a few I hear are (out of necessity) 'surviving' on $900 checks in less expensive areas. -- Extravagance is expensive in both countries !

Exactly, these videos make it seem like its the life when its really not much life at all. No exploring or having fun really. If you’re 75, you might make it. If you’re younger its a wrap.
Hi Adam, next time when you visit your friend in Beach and Mountain Condominium, just come over to the third floor. The water bill here is 200 Bat a month which is paid by the landlord and if you do not use aircon that often you can easily cut in half your expenses for electricity
Hey Adam , Johnny from California just left Pattaya 3 days ago... I'm in BKK on my last night... at Hillary 11 playing pool I wish I could live like that... My cheapest day was 3 ,000 baht and I blew 7,000 baht in one night In California we say work hard and Party even harder ! I hope to run into next !!! And great job on your Channel I wanna be like Adam !!! Good on you brother ....
I watch a lot of YT videos and it is constantly mentioned that people find it cheaper to eat out then to stay in and cook at home. That seems incredible since eating out is now so expensive in the US. That food looks good to me. Cheap beer from 7-11 too. Can you drink in public?
I also live in Pattaya.. the prices are really right. but the electricity bill was 1600. that's why you have to have the air conditioning on all the time.. note the higher you live the less you need air conditioning
Ok so a few things to consider: The air quality, water quality, and food quality are not always going to be "organic level" quality. Plus white rice with everything is not the best!! Hence, to get quality foods, you will need to spend a bit more
Foreigners won't get an apartment or condo for only 7,000 baht unless we get a 6 month or 12 month lease. You never mentioned that. Very hard to find short term 1 month for that price
Good video Adam .. I have just got my bank account & one year retirement visa , yes , not cheap using an agent but it’s done. Going for a condo in bkk suburbs 9000 for 45 Sq m. It will do for a start. My budget 35,000TB pmth ..
I complete agree with you. If you don't hang out in bars too much, eat street food or cook at home, and get cheapish accommodation, $1000 is enough for a good lifestyle. I used to spend about that much when I lived there, however, I was working 5 days a week so I didn't have all day to spend money.
Personally you can live at that price but i don't think it would be great on living in the tourist areas or Bangkok. Again depends on your needs, appetites and your wants. I always said $1400 would be my start price and the rest is then above comfortable living.
I rented a house with 2 bedrooms and a large outdoor area with chairs and tables. it cost me 3000 baht a month it is about 20 minutes from central Pattaya. Food prices were about 30% lower, a Baht bus costs 20 Baht.
Thanks for the vlog Adam,returned from Pattaya last week,after a 6 week holiday,caught bloody Covid in the second week,just stayed in the hotel for 7 days.was out every second night with my mates that live there,LK,tree town.soi Pothole.tried to keep up with them but at 72,struggled a tad.been to Pattaya and HH many times,but always end up with crook guts,diarrhoea for days?

For people under 30, you need 3k minimum to enjoy your self with an above average quality of life. Koh Samui - 4k gbp per month is the sweet spot to live it up. Who wants to go there to be stingy and live on a budget… You could realistically live in parts of the UK, Italy, Spain or eastern EU for $1k per month
I'm guessing there's quiet a few places that 1 could live on $1000 usd a month but I couldn't see myself doing it. Just to many places to see & things to do there. 🍻😜 Great to get a baseline figure to live there though. Thanks Adam 👍
Awesome video I’m hoping to move to Pattaya in February after my visit in November. Luckily, I’m retired from the state of California, so I have a pretty good income,shhhhh. It was funny as in Arizona, Ian, or tempus without a beard.
I really appreciated the way you broke down your expenses while also giving a glimpse into exactly what you spent money on. Kudos on that. The only real question I have is this... did that guy on the soccer field make a goal when he did that beck-flip kick? That was quite impressive (and iIm not a soccer fan). Thanks again!
I can see you on the 4k a month rocking all the off white tees. They’re like 5-600 USD so sounds like your clothes shopping would add a fair bit as well.
Always fun to do this. Yes you can exist on $1000 p/m, and make it sound fun, but it does make it very tight without much scope for 'doing things' and 'doing things' is what life is all about. The accommodation is cheap which is the main thing that makes it feasible, and if you are open minded about what you eat that helps. If you are really going to live there, you need money for health cover, and the cost of that varies on age and condition. It could blow the $1000 out of the water. Also, if you come from a Western country like the US, Australia or UK and you want one trip home each year to see your old friends, that is likely to be over $2000 adding a further $200 p/m to your budget. I think a better video is what do you need to live comfortably? A lot of guys on here are saying $2k and chocolate man did one where he spends $3k p/m which is probably a comfortable budget including everything.
Keis! Soon 50k! Gogo! 1k At old age with health insurance? No way, thats a dream only. You could do it "young" but not 60+ Good thing that you said 2k dollars at the end, probly what its gunna cost you long term with health insurance👍
Hey, Adam...sitting here on Soi 8 having some amazing food. Would love to get together for a beer. Leaving on Monday for Phuket but back on 26th for three days. Let me know!
Government water!? All water is government water (PWA = Provincial Water Authority). You are most definitely paying for water, but it's probably a flat fee incorporated into the rent. Check your contract.
It is like any country as far as how much your habits cost you as they are always your biggest expense. A good budget is the key to make your money go further.
Pattaya plus 100k a week for baht buses is one of the most walkables places I have lived Many restaurants deliver and Thai girls will willingly fetch $5 or 6 worth of food for the two of u and bring it to your home. They will also cook for u I only need them twice a week and have a dozen I could call None are on my payroll.
As a Canadian a 1000us is not cheap if one is on vacation considering having to pay the high cost of airfair to get over there and make it worth while!, how ever if living there it might not be the most expensive if one is living there, not expensive but not cheap any longer!
I just bought my plane tickets to Bangkok today. I’m coming for the Yi Peng festival in Chiang Mai in November. I’ll be in Thailand for 18 days and still trying to figure out my itinerary.
I been there at least 10 times but I will say u need at least 3k a month to really enjoy yourself and that includes the night life. But Thailand is a amazing place to be that's why I keep coming back
Hello I love your channel! I'm looking to move or spend a lot if time in Thailand. Please could you talk more about your business Visa? I am either looking to get an elite VISA or invest the money into a business I would appreciate your advice. Thank you😊
Many many people play golf in Pattaya 3 times a week, spending 20000 a month on golf. Sure I could stay in my condo and eat Thai food and drink water and live on 1000us a month. But who comes to live here spending 600 baht a day after taking the 12000 baht rent for my condo.
Been living here for 15 years,
First years on about 500 a month
Now about 1000

yes its the oil and does the same for me, only option long term is cook yourself.
Transports? Sure for 1000 Euro it will be fine with extras as buying clothes, shoes, (big sizes as sometimes very rare), massages, etc...
For people under 30, you need 3k minimum to enjoy your self with an above average quality of life.
Koh Samui - 4k gbp per month is the sweet spot to live it up.
Who wants to go there to be stingy and live on a budget…
You could realistically live in parts of the UK, Italy, Spain or eastern EU for $1k per month
No walking Street barfines allowed in that budget lol
Yes it is possible no issues.. but here is the thing, if you want company and very attractive company, $1000 dollars won’t get you too far.
Agree 1000% I can pay my rent 6 to 12 months in advance and only spend 300 baht a day and I am happy.

Nope, it's not enough but possible, you need at least $3K-$4K to live in Thailand.

Hey, Adam...sitting here on Soi 8 having some amazing food. Would love to get together for a beer. Leaving on Monday for Phuket but back on 26th for three days. Let me know!
Cool man great video ,
What's the name of the condo?
Totally doable if your a monk
😂
Government water!? All water is government water (PWA = Provincial Water Authority). You are most definitely paying for water, but it's probably a flat fee incorporated into the rent. Check your contract.
Great vlog tanks
My current water bill here in the US, assuming 34bht/dollar is 4,794 baht.
Great video
It is like any country as far as how much your habits cost you as they are always your biggest expense. A good budget is the key to make your money go further.
A good budget AND spending discipline.
How did you get 300 a month phone data. Im paying 500 and only get 40gb. Could do with a tip here
I could wasily do 1500 one month and 2000baht the next. I'm easy! I want to know your travel budget for Philipines and Japan!
What about transportation cost? If you don’t leave the condo or one walks every where .. I still think your budget was not counting a few things ..
Pattaya plus 100k a week for baht buses is one of the most walkables places I have lived Many restaurants deliver and Thai girls will willingly fetch $5 or 6 worth of food for the two of u and bring it to your home. They will also cook for u I only need them twice a week and have a dozen I could call None are on my payroll.
What soi in Jomtien did you get the bolognaise? I don't recognise that place at all. I want to go and try it!
Good video, I am first time in Thailand and it all depends what I spend on my entertainment i spend 30K bath
Who are you using for your visa agent please?
2000usd maybe
Who is your visa agent bro education visa is like twice the price and I can’t find anyone yet for less
on my way September
As a Canadian a 1000us is not cheap if one is on vacation considering having to pay the high cost of airfair to get over there and make it worth while!, how ever if living there it might not be the most expensive if one is living there, not expensive but not cheap any longer!
So , I will have around 2500$ as a pension wen I’m retired…can live good I hope.
An , a elite visa, a good thing to have ?
how much are people saving to move to Pattaya permanently?
Have a good trip to Tokyo 👍
Thanks mate! Off shortly 🥳
I see the crew is here :D last couple of times I have just liked your comments :D
The new update is quick again in the Netherlands 😜🍻
@@Sonny.E Yes, well done Champ 🏆. I think you only like gold medals 🥇 😀
@@CarnisChampion Cheers 🍻 Carnis. Good to see you here too 👍
I just bought my plane tickets to Bangkok today. I’m coming for the Yi Peng festival in Chiang Mai in November. I’ll be in Thailand for 18 days and still trying to figure out my itinerary.
Bring your swimsuit, November weather can be very wet.

@Tempus TV. How about this: youtube.com/@tempustv. 😃
now that I've actually watched the video I take it back hahaha
1 Word Outstanding. Wonder if your in Tokyo yet??
I been there at least 10 times but I will say u need at least 3k a month to really enjoy yourself and that includes the night life. But Thailand is a amazing place to be that's why I keep coming back
Maybe if you are on holidays and paying for hotels but rent makes it considerably cheaper 🥳
$3,000 is still reasonable.
Did you see my interview on Retired Working For You about the cost of living in Koh Samui on $1000 per month?
Is it US Dollars or OZ Dollars or which Dollars are we talking about????????????
Hi what phone company do you use? I use AIS and get 5G unlimited they charge me 1.200 baht a month? Cheers
Hello I love your channel! I'm looking to move or spend a lot if time in Thailand. Please could you talk more about your business Visa? I am either looking to get an elite VISA or invest the money into a business I would appreciate your advice. Thank you😊
Many many people play golf in Pattaya 3 times a week, spending 20000 a month on golf. Sure I could stay in my condo and eat Thai food and drink water and live on 1000us a month. But who comes to live here spending 600 baht a day after taking the 12000 baht rent for my condo.
golf is so boring...yawn
Hi, what visa agent do you use? Thanks
