Might be worth a read for some of you considering living in Thailand full time.................make what you will of the article............. http://www.retire-asia.com/thai-advice.shtml Farang Living in Thailand – some advice for newcomers to the "Land of Smiles (and Guile)" The writer's opinions, posted anonymously on a news group recently, may seem overly cynical and negative. However there is a lot of truth which can be verified by discussions with ex-pats or 'farang/falang' (referred to by Thai Immigration as aliens) who live or have lived in Thailand for extended periods. Ho

Been there, done that, no desire to do it again. Horses for courses, but after 6 years of living in Pattaya it is not somewhere i will live again, too much of a village mentality for me, and the bitchiness and backstabbing and general bullshit that goes on between farangs is unlike anywhere i have ever come across in the world, will be Bangkok for me, a place that ain't everyones cup of tea, but a city i love and where i had the best 3 1/2 years of my life and somewhere you can choose to be annonymous if you so desire. Take the availability of cheap women out of Pattaya and it doesn't real

having watched Nick Griffin interviewed on the BBC after the court case where they have been ordered to change their constitution to which he has agreed to, every single point he made when questioned, i agreed 100% with in relation to who is standing up for the indiginous Brits and is it not the leaders of all the mainstream parties who have sold us out.

It all depends on your lifestyle, if you live in Pattaya and want to be a barfly and monger all the time, you are looking at needing in the region of 80-100k baht a month to sustain it, however if you realise there is more to life than bars, and having a ho everynight ain't your thing, you will struggle to spend 30-40k baht a month and can still have a great life. Thailand caters for every lifestyle and for every budget, as always one mans paradise is another mans hell, some love Pattaya, some hate it and never set foot in the place, some love village life probably struggling to spend 15-20k b
