Would depend on how much money you wanted to make for example 4 female pigs just chucking out little piggies and fattening them up if the profit is all yours could make you 15-20k baht a month averaged out over a year and that was just supplying the local village in the main, a medium sized sheep farm would easily be supported by hotels/restaurants in Pattaya/Bangkok if you could provide a regular supply, the main start up costs would obviously be importing X amount of animals and all the shite that would involve which is what makes it a non starter for most people, but i still reckon if someo

I thought the numbers sounded good at first too, but when i started doing it via the in laws i soon lost interest when the reality was somewhat different, still turned a profit and think the misses was getting 10,000 + baht a month on average for her cut when the pigs were sold, but as i said you'd have to do it on a massive scale to make a farang wage. I still reckon sheep farming would be worth a punt for someone who knows what they are doing as the price of lamb is extortionate in Thailand, although i am led to believe they do keep some sheep in the South of Thailand i've certainly nev

You'd have to do pigs on a large scale to make a liveable wage, from birth to selling them at 6-8 months old when you factor in food etc. i (the inlaws) were making roughly 2,000 baht a pig (would sell for 5-6000 baht), i found the most profitable way was having 4 sows and they would have litters of 6-10 piggys if i remember and they were fetching 1000-1500 baht at 6-8 weeks old and had only been feeding on mommys tits during that period so no food costs for them.

It's sport, only right that the underdog should come out on top now and again, bit harsh that they ended up shooting the bull though, case of a bad loser.

The guy is harmless, just a Pattaya personality who doesn't take himself seriously yet others seem to for some reason, and all the people calling for him to be banned would probably be the same people saying they miss his ramblings if he was, also a bit ironic that when he was banned/binned people copied and pasted his posts onto the main board, as others have said no one is forced to open and read a topic that is of no interest to them and also while never having used it myself i'm reliably informed that the 'ignore' function should be in most peoples capabilities and i'm pretty sure if someo

Solution - lie, or rather don't volunteer the truth.

Why choose Thailand if this is how you feel???

I came to the same conclusion after only 1 visit.

If you were the true socialist you claim to be, you would go and rent a chunk of land and grow your own stuff!!!!

You'll never see 65 again unless there are some major unforseen circumstances, doubt you'll even see 55 again, so a bit pointless having all your money stashed away if you're never going to spend it, get used to 45-50 being the new 'normal' rate. Although i'll probably end back up in Thailand and after best part of 10 years living there and now back in England for 18 months and enjoying it not sure at the moment if i actually fancy living in the developing world again for a long period of time, might have to start looking at various places in Europe as an alternative, Greece, Spain, Portugal o

Humiliating Pastry over and over again, Bigleg seems to have put some weight on looking at them photos!!!!! You staying in Thailand now and given up moaning about the exchange rate then?????

I was given a weeks holiday in terms of posting rights, but all good thanks, didn't see your ugly mug in the photos, still a bit camera shy???

Did someone plug CampariO into the mains or he just forget to brush his hair??

No straight man would come out with a denial speech like that.

If anyone is relying on a state pension for their retirement funds they are in serious trouble, what does a £100 a week do for you or what ever it is?????
