- How I retired at age 32 & moved to Thailand. Retirement can be a financial hardship for most people. Near retirement is very rare, and most people depend on social security benefits. The best way to reduce the cost of living is to move to a country with lower costs. Thailand retirement is a perfect example, and many people opt to live in Thailand during their retirement period. Thailand has a warm climate, friendly people, foreign foods and above all Thai food which are much spicier.There are many foreigners from Japan, United States, South Korea, Western Europe, and it is considered safe to live. Retirement in Thailand is very different from the notion that is associated with the word. Retirement has acquired a brand new meaning which suits the new definition of the new generation of retirees. Retiring in Thailand is a common and attractive option.

You're the only guy living in Thailand who said how you finance yourself. Thanks for being honest
im 24 and planning to save another 4 years and live off dividends over there
@@Bauerctu not lucky, he worked hard bro. If youre in investment banking and good at it, 10 or 15 years and you can be set for life too. but you know that
@@Bauerctu yep!
RW4U is a canadian with a you tube channel that sold a company in LA And he uses all the You Tube money on Subs and mostly giving back to Thai people. Seen Jonny having a beer with him in a pic
You’re a very wise man Jonny. I worked long days - 9am to 9pm or later - until age 43 and then ended up on kidney dialysis. Enjoy your life while you can because none of us know what might restrict our lives in the future. 👍🏼
Yes restrict or lock down ( WHO treaty 😮)
Looking forward to reallocating once we can leave Australia (post COVID10).
Thanks Jonny ! Be well!

Good Q & A, thanks Jonny! Loved your answer for your goals in life. And getting rid of the smoking habit will be one of the best things you can do for yourself. I know it was for me.
Don't listen to the devil Jonny!!! I quit smoking (3 packs a day) and it was the best thing I could have done.......... I feel so much better..... and vaping is such a crutch.......
Jonny. The very best of luck to you.
Great vid
Great honest video, thanks for sharing so transparently, it makes a difference and is why i subscribed, can see through the BS of too many others. Thanks again.
Great video,giving us all an insight into your life and lifestyle in Thailand,Yes its getting harder every year living in Australia with job instability and ever increasing cost of living and stagnant wage growth.Better being and living happy as at end of day you can't take it with you, only the memories you make.
Cheers
Love this video, amen Jonnie:)
Hey, thanks for the answer to my question Jonny!! I have to agree with you, after you said that. I honestly wasn't coming up with anything until you mentioned the traffic, which can be outright deadly. Cheers!!
Thanks Jonny - Great Q&A. I will be heading to Cha-am in November. Presently in the USA. I go back and US and Thailand. Lived in Chaingmai but will try the sea area this time.
I know it was around 3 y ago but your very interesting to learn some things from. Another great video cheers mate.

Good on you Jonny
Hi Jonny. I was a Respiratory Therapist for 40+ years in the US. Please quit smoking. COPD is no joke. I hope to meet you someday. I am living in Cha-am now and will look for you in Hua Hin around Soi 57. Take care.......Sal : )
Johnny love your philosophy you got it right man!!... Enjoy guys have a good time and keep them coming. Thanks again. Stay safe. From the US.

Good on you just enjoy life, love to get out there one day. 👍🏻🏴
Your spot on with your thoughts.
Thanks dude! :)
This is your time capsule Jonny.
Nearly 3 years later and you're not in Bangkok. I'll need to catchup with your other videos to follow the story.
Love your attitude of "whatever happens happens", good on you for taking risks, and I wish you all the best.
Fair play to you mate it sounds like you done well and you worked hard and sold up at the right time.must of been a good deal as you were working on good boats.keep up the good work mate.
You're a smart guy Jonny. Smart enough to know when you need to get your shit together. Not too many can say or admit to that. Cheers
Well done mate
Jhonny you are amazing man j watching u from years
You have done really well for yourself 🥇
Good video. Good to see the man behind the man.
great vlog Jonny and yes i would have to agree with you as when i was over there the roads wre shocking and the traffic was herhendis but life itself and the people there are wonderful and as you said i think if you can get over the way Thailand is with the smell you can have a wonderful and great life living in Thailand
Great Info and you are living the dream I would be doing the same thing if the financial situation is better the rising cost and rent in Aus is nuts.
Thats the way to do it jonny..
Good Vlog Johnny I love your attitude how right you are retiring at 32 I did same at 48 cut your coat according to your cloth live in the country that treats you best good for you
Awesome Johnny, best advice for people of any age coming to live in Thailand is have your income from outside of Thailand. Trying to make money inside Thailand is almost impossible unless of course you work for an international company. Take it easy
By the power of passive income give you freedom in life. Good on you mate, you've worked hard ,applied your brains and now you're following your dream. So many people never stop to think about what is important in their life to themselves. I understand your philosophy and at the age of 57 I'm getting off the Hamster Wheel as well
Good on you jonny all the best you seem like a cool dude
Great stuff Jonny! Really like the philosophy mate.....
Looks like you've had alot of luck (through hard work) in life but also early tragedy....life's for living! Enjoy.....and don't listen to the haters!!!!
Nice one Johnny..You're living the dream.
I've been coming Southeast asia from Australia since 1985. Currently living in the Philippines. I love the wild west feel too, but these days, Thailand is only the wild west when compared with the Australian Police state. Cambodia and the Philppines still have that feel. I lived for years in both. Thanks for sharing.
You probably don’t like Q and A’s cause your baring a bit of your soul to the World. But hey buddy that’s why we watch lol. Love the insight into your life. We are all probably jealous as hell lol. Keep it coming. Thumbs up.
Thanks for sharing! My Filipina gf and I enjoy watching your adventures, we also had many of the questions you answered today. We love your positive happy outlook. Your gf, her son, and your pet are adorable. Hopefully next year I can retire from the company I work for here on US west coast and we can head that way to the PI where her family is, and visit Thailand too. Best wishes to you all. Cheers m8!
Why be jealous of somebody's achievements you all have the same chances it's going out there and make it happen I did so can you depends on how bad you want it. For me I found an opening in the property market to my chances and it paid of now I watch my money grow and give to charities and I live of the interest with the way interest rates are which is shit it gives you an idea how successful I've been. You got to make it happen for yourself if you want it that bad.
Nice to see some honesty in your responses. Ace comment about the cornflakes packet! I agree with you on the driving, they do seem in the main pretty bloody hopeless. Buddha is looking after them (maybe). Well done with the portfolio and an escort too! Insanely jealous. 😋👍
You are 1 lucky son.of the gun in the good way. Cheers mate and thanks for sharing.
Cool Jonny - thanks for the background!
I hear you on the pet situation. Pets are a commitment and an obligation. They do limit your options. Both of my cats are 13 or 14 (rescue cats, so not exactly sure - LOL). I think they are trying hard to outlive me!
Hopefully, though, I'll figure out a way to make another trip to Thailand next year - before I get too old and feeble - LOL.
Take care mate. ;-)
Oh yeah. Not exactly my choice - Sandy made sure that I was going to pay for my sins - LOL.
But, that said, and being alone, they do provide me with great companionship.
Your a man of my own heart, would have been cool to run into you when I was living in Hua Hin 2014 to 17.
Hats off to you jonny 🎩🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🍻
@@jonnyasia all is good pal. I will return to Thailand in November 🇹🇭✌
That was cool.
Thanks for answering my question, Jonny! Keep up the great videos!
Your right about that. Why keep working yourself into the ground. I am much older but love working with my Daughter and son. So, I will be going to Thailand when it opens for a month or so and relaxxxxxxxxx. Good video.
I think YOU did the right thing......I had worked from age 15 and had to take early retirement do to SPINE disease that hit me at 46 but didn’t quit until 52....I had over 30 yrs in BANKING and hated to leave...So in 2017 my Husband didn’t what his marriage anymore after 28 yrs......What I tell people do not wait do the things now because you never know.....So now I am a OLD woman who cannot travel and alone....Life can give you SHIT but it’s what ya do with it.....I have enjoyed your videos and seeing there is another world.....
Hang in there Dee, I hope you’re ok ❤️
Easier to move about when you’re alone. Great on you mate. #staysafe
Good on you mate 👍
Just play it save life full of surprises,spirit for those people they think 🤔 they had it all , just like doing Time kills .
I totally agree with you about work jonny, I started work at 15 years of age just retired 50 years working, and now my body is pretty much FUCK up( sorry about the language ) hopefully one day I tell you the rest of it all. So I agree with what you say if you can do it . Thanks for being so honest it's not that easy , top class vlog
Personally I would be wary of buying a property in Thailand. You have to remember that the country is still ruled by a military dictatorship, rules and regulations can and do change at the drop of a hat and the changes will always favour Thai nationals over foreigners. At least with having your investments in your home country you know it’s secure (barring a potential property or stock market crash). Besides one of the great things about Thailand is how super cheap rent is.
Ive seen a few of ya videos but they didnt make me Subscribe, after watching this Q&A and seeing a bit of wats behind the scenes of Jonny ill add a sub for you...From a fellow Australian with ties to Thailand......
