How I Live Like A King In Thailand for $1500/Month: Phuket Thailand Cost Of Living 

That’s my exact budget for when I move there next year. I can’t wait.

@@Combat_Medic You will have an amazing time, no matter what age you are. Even if you get caught up in the ladies, just don't go too far 😅

Haha I’m sure you have some crazy stories to tell!

@KarloDenis I lived in Bangkok while I was there - I had a central apartment where I could store my stuff and feel safe Yeah you could find cheaper but I wanted a central location I could use for traveling. I was going to Japan during the months I was there as well. $90 ticket from Bangkok. If you want to save money and don't mind being around partying and more tourist, Phuket or Pattaya would be great for 2 months. I loved all three.

Damn, I would love to hear your experiences! For one, how were your living accommodations?

Love to hear it! Thailand is a very beautiful place

ABSOLUTELY 💯 Well said 👏 Bravo 👏

Thanks brotha appreciate the support

@@Vejitasei all fantastic points! I’m going to make some future videos about making USD and living overseas

Yeah bro I was paying like $50/cut in LA 😂 so I feel you on that. I was worried they were going to fuck me up but they actually have some good barbers haha

ABSOLUTELY 💯 WELL SAID BRAVO GET YOUR PASSPORT AND GET OUT OF THE MATRIX ✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️

How black barbers charge black men, who barely have any hair, more money than a long-haired, mullet wearing white person is charged at their white shops, is beyond me!

The billion $ question lol

Late to this video. I'm Black and live in the USA. When I visit Thialand (Phuket, Chang Mai, Bangkok) I have never had a problem getting a good haircut. The same ubiquitous posters are on the wall, so point to what you want. Or just show them a picture on your phone and they will take care of you.

The last one. That's not going to happen, everyone pay for sex. Even if you have a girlfriend. 😂😂😂😊😊😊

​@@whattheysay2301not true at all my wife pays 30% of my cost of living While I made 2mil she made 1mil She lowers my cost of living Paid 60k cash for a new BMW Her money not mine. Helped me buy 2 condos in Tokyo.

If it’s your first time definitely stay in Patong. It’s where all the action is at

Patong is going to be busy very touristy and more expensive. Depends on if you want to party or relax and enjoy Thai food and culture. Definitely better beaches around the island in my opinion.

Damn that’s cheap haha. Townhouses and houses seem to be cheaper than apartments for whatever reason but that’s quite the steal. Pattaya isn’t my favorite but the affordability of Thailand never ceases to amaze me

@@Naijahoy You should always let a Thai handle the price negotiation. they shouldn't say that a foreigner should live in the house then it will be cheaper. now I live in Kalasin and I can live an incredible life for little money

Better than living in the states.

well I live in Osaka so i prefer Asian countries, but I just found the terming of "live like a king off 1500" funny bc like i said, kings don't live on a budget. Your reply is "better than the states" which does'nt have anything to do about what i said. When i think of king in thailand, i think of ocean villa and a yacht. What you described to be is backpacker or a guy living off a 3k monthly pension. Which just differ! @@mrtee3477

Education Visa- learning Thai

How long have you been here in Thailand?

Tinder and Thai Friendly are full of sex industry workers.

I don’t actually, but I should get ok that haha 😅

@@Naijahoy you should man. I plan to get in when I permanently in 2025. That needs to be accounted for in budget. Don’t get caught lacking and now your screwed.

For sure! They have some really amazing Amenities and high quality service as well

👋

Oh really? How much you paying?

Depends on where you are if you’re in Patong probably not haha. That’s where all the tourists go

@@Naijahoy okay man thanks👍

It’s a figure of speech… 🤣

“Living like a king” is a figure of speech which is meant to convey how far the US dollar can stretch in Thailand I’m sure no rational-minded person is actually expecting to live like a modern day king of Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Sweden etc on such a small budget And even $3000 would be nowhere near enough either- if you’re expecting a Palace, personal attendants, lambos etc. So now that we’re done playing the semantics game. We can get back to the point of the video being that the US dollar stretches very far in Thailand

@@Naijahoy first of all, I understand that saying you can live like a king is a figure of speech. I also understand you’re the one who chose that dumbass descriptor. So if someone calls you out on words you chose to use, perhaps you can choose your words more wisely in the future. Even if we take “live like a king” in the way you most likely meant it, which is basically “live like a rich person”, $1500 a month is still not anywhere enough! So either way, whether you meant it literally or figuratively, you’re wrong! And yes, I’ve been there! To live like a rich person, and I’m talking bare minimum, starting level rich, you need about $5000 a month in either the Philippines or Thailand. Any Instagram worthy, rich man looking condo is going to cost you about $2000 a month, in either country. That right there destroys your $1500 a month. I don’t think anyone would consider themselves living like a king, even figuratively speaking, without having a nice vehicle. That’s going to be about $500 a month. of course you’re going to have at least a maid, if not a maid and a driver or maid and a cook. You’re looking at another $600 a month. You’re going to join a nice gym with air-conditioning, that’s going to be $50 a month. You’re going to eat out, because what king doesn’t, you’re looking at about $400 a month minimum. Let’s be honest, one steak dinner at Wolfgang, right there in the Philippines, can run you $200. Obviously, you won’t do that every day, but you will do it at least once during that month, if you’re living like a king. Your queen is going to have needs. Presumably, you found someone very attractive, and you’re going to want to keep her looking that way. It will cost you at least $500 a month to maintain her. (nails, hair, make up, gym membership, clothes, tampons, lotion, food, etc.) And can we be really, really honest? You’re probably gonna have another little hidden sugar baby somewhere on the side. She’s going to take $200-$300 a month. I haven’t even gotten into utilities, Internet, travel to other islands or other countries, the necessary trips back to the USA. Once a year, insurances, your own personal grooming items, haircuts, massages, medical check ups, dental, etc. Heaven forbid if your girls family ever needs a little help here and there. And of course you need at least $200 set aside per month for whatever emergencies that might arise, and there will be emergencies. No, sir, no matter how you meant “live like a king”, $1500 a month ain’t going to cut it! Stop telling people this nonsense, because it causes some people, who may not have it all upstairs, to actually believe you, and make life-changing decisions that ultimately wreck them.

A little bit long winded but your not wrong. A lot of expenses were totally left out

@@davidfox7593 well, sometimes it takes more than a sentence to say what really needs to be said. This guy was being a smart ass, when he’s the one delivering incorrect information. I had to do some straightening.

I was thinking the exact same thing. Once you start dating that budget's gone. I guess he saves a lot of money staying at home touching himself everyday.

The fact that you commented this tells me that you’ve never been to Thailand and talked to the locals 🤦🏾‍♂️

Click on my link bro. I've lived and worked in Thailand for more than 30 years, I'm a naturalised Thai citizen. I've employed thousands of people here over the years. I've sat on the boards of Chambers of Commerce here. There's a whole Thailand out there that you have zero experience of.

100k? lmao Not evven in BKK

Laugh you may@@djchyloe . In BKK it is higher than that. Closer to 130k average.

@@noah_shepherd most of my friends and friends of theirs are getting 10k to 20k. 30-50k is on the really high end. 100k it’s not the average, but you can believe what you read on the net.

😂😂😂
