I SOLD EVERYTHING, Quit My 9-5 And Moved To Thailand

- Follow me on my journey as I show you around where I now live in Pattaya, Thailand.
Back in early 2022 I lost had no money, car, job, I was 30 years old, living at home with my mum. I made the decision to lock myself away and embark on a self-development journey, which lead me to becoming an Online Fitness Coach. It has been a tough journey but things are going well enough for me to vacate to Thailand and live in Pattaya, while I study the language.
When I first thought of quitting the 9 to 5 and starting my own business online, I always had the vision of moving abroad. Working remotely in Thailand has always been a dream of mine, and now it's a reality.
If you're looking to start a business online, look at what skills you currently have and if you can turn that into value for others. Before you know it, you may be moving to Thailand to work online 😉
This is the first video of many I will be making so follow along with my journey and Subscribe! 🙏

Been visiting Pattaya for 24 years now the UK is totally finished you have made the right decision. good luck with your journey.
Thanks mate! Totally agree 👌
Spitting facts.
Yh I agree it's finished uk is horrible at the moment all my mates are leaving the UK at the moment
I agree! 100%
I’m not sure what you mean by the UK being totally finished honestly. Is it immigration? Cost of living? It often seems that when this phrase is throw out what it actually translates as is “I am not able to live in this place for various reasons, or dislike something about, so that means I will say that it’s “finished” instead of admitting that the issue is really with myself…sorry for being blunt, but that’s usually what I get out of it. I have lived in Thailand for years, but one thing I don't do is make comments on the state of my country failing as if that is the reason I don't live there. They also hold up Thailand as some beacon of freedom and everything the west isn't, when in reality there are some very real social problems here and in many many ways, a whole lot less freedoms than you get in your home countries...
Plenty of people from all over the world want to come to settle in my country from everywhere (they want to go to the the UK too.) with this noted, I think its hard to really say things like "the west is failing"...no, it's more that it doesn't fit our lifestyles, and that is fine, but it doesn't mean anything else other than that. I also think that moving to a country like Thailand and expecting to just work online or remotely is a bad plan long term. You should really look into investing, opening a business in the country, that way you pay taxes and set yourself up for potential permanent residency. Working online, while maybe providing good income, isn't really best for long term planning.
Congrats on making the move! I sold everything and moved to Thailand in my late 30's. 22 years later I'm still here. No regrets.
22 years is a long time, awesome!
What job do you do
@@tylerdurden-qx7lxselling Mai Thais
how were you able to stay so long? dont they have a 30 day travel time there?
Yeah, I'd get 30 days on entry with no visa and had to do border runs. Then I did 60-day multiple entry tourist visas which meant less frequent border runs, and finally I just did Thailand Elite. @@lenseofficial
I did the same thing, sold everything back in 2003, quit my job, and moved to Thailand. Now, 20 years later, and I am still happy in Thailand. I really like seeing young guys like yourself doing it too. Hopefully in 20 years, you will still be here.
must be alot money :D
Thanks mate 👍
If you don’t mind me asking…how much did money did you arrive with to supplement this ?
@@josephd4066 Back in 2003, when I was 29 years old, I sold my condo in San Francisco. The profit gave me just over $200k USD to move to Thailand. At that time the exchange rate was around 1 USD = 40 BHT, so about $8mil BHT at that time. I immediately paid cash for two things, a house and a car. My wife is Thai, we have been married for over 20 years and have 2 kids together. I met her in 2001 at Stanford University. Over the years we have owned multiple businesses and properties together. I am 49 now and she is 41 now. Still going strong, she has a UA-cam channel with over 120,000 subscribers and earns money that way. I work in consulting (100% online) and continue to earn money that way.
It was much cheaper back then, Thailand has become more expensive to.
Great story. Glad it's going well for you. Restarting and moving across the globe at any age is a huge leap. The conditions in the USA are a main factor in what drove me to leave and restart my life in Thailand at 57,
Thanks mate! Amazing that you made the leap too 👍
Hopefully I can do the same at 57 when my youngest is done with college. 5 more years.
Failure in home country won’t translate to success in another country.
@@Mike11219USA Not sure what is considered a failure, but in the Us i would have to work until 62 at a minimum, whereas my savings and investments will go a lot farther in the Philippines, allowing me to move my retirement up 5 years.
@@Mike11219USAsame habits will have same results 😁
Making that big move at 30...bravo! Happy to hear it's working for you. I'm 8 years today breaking away from the USA and living in the Philippines. The only regret is that I didn't do it sooner, so making it work at 30 gives you many more years of adventure and enjoyment ahead. Best of luck. If we happen to see you in Pattaya, will def say hello! Good luck on your channel. Your presentation and flow tells me you are going to do great.
8 years and going strong it looks like, love that for you mate 👍 hopefully see you around sometime
What city in phillipines do u recommend
It is mainly based on the lifestyle you want to live, but Iloilo is a great up and coming city and where i have lived for the past 5 years. I also like areas of Cebu although there you have large city issues. Some guys like the beach areas which tend to be in smaller less developed towns as well.@@uk_bigboss1705
I did the complete opposite of what you did. I came here and started researching how to make money online when I arrived. No preparation, no prior skills. But it worked out :)
What did you find
@@ZGrubsweb cam girls .... Andrew Tate Style
But without savings, initially the only viable option is to teach English and get your visa situated through an institution right? Until you can manage to make an income remotely later as you build it up. I imagine that takes months to years to develop.
i'm native thai here. i wish you being happy here. life is a life no matter what anyone got through, just don't care what other think, forget the past and move on and think positive. i used to get through big financial few years ago and a lot of surrounded ppl left me in a dust. glad i made it, and i chose the life for now that comforting my mind and move on ,and being careful in a lot of aspects in life. wish you luck
Ahhh mate; this video resonates with me. I’m mid 30s, got sick of life back in the UK, quit my job decided to take a long holiday, with the intention of returning home to the old routine just with a more bearable job (employee mindset!) … now I’m thinking, how the heck can I stay so started watching videos like yours!
Awesome to hear Dave, coming back to the UK is depressive! Everyone stuck in their ways, negative attitudes, rising prices. Run if you get the chance! 😅
You can't stay, you can't work in Thailand and you can't get a visa unless you're rich. Videos like these are useless and misleading
@@HH-uj8pihow about marring a Thai girl😂
"just trying to live a better life" - i completely with you.
I was just awarded 100% dissability. $3,621.95/month should be plenty in Thailand. It was affective sept.2023. Im already online-hunting for my pattaya condo.
Check out my pattaya condo video, it's a great place where I'm at! Also that amount of money per month is more than affordable to live here, best of luck mate 👍
That's rich over here in SE Asia. You'll have an amazing time and live more comfortable with your disability than elsewhere in the West!
I also need a disability
Scab, hope you feel bad

I’m a Canadian turning 34. I just sold everything I own and quit my job at a coal mine to live in Vietnam. Can’t wait to work on myself and start fresh. This video made me feel a little more confident that I’m not making a bad decision so thanks haha 👊🏻
so how are you going to make money? Are you going to live what the western society gave you - all the priviledge? Or do you plan to get work in Vietnam, master the language and have salary typical for Vietnamese?
@@WojciechowskaAnna I have some money from selling my home to live on and plan to develop skills so I can work remotely just like the creator of the video.
@@WojciechowskaAnna and yes I will take advantage of my “western privilege”. Should I not?
@@vibrevtonez2421 for Vietameese employer? With Vietnamese salary?Do you feel gratitude towards your sciety for having this opportunity? Do Vietameese in your country have same start? Correct me if I understood you right - you want to earn money on level similar to Canadian, but pay for service in Vietnam at level of Vietamese? or maybe you will pay them more?
Good luck man, your doing the right thing
As a 40 yo Korean American fella who sold everything like you and moved to Bangkok, Thailand. It's my first week (but not the first time in Thailand) and I LOVE IT! and also thought to myself, Why didn't I do this earlier?? But let me tell you something. It's NEVER TOO LATE. I still manage to work remotely and make the money in US. Love it mate!
Im dutch but i get your point about leaving uk. I had a thai gf in the past. Love the country to, but i went back home. I have my own company here, but thinking about leaving in the future. Things seem to go downhill only. Inflation is high, house prices insane, and work does not really pay off here, high taxes etc... + radical feminism... Western woman are nuts.
We moeten gaan Bart :) Nederland gaat hard achteruit
@@suchasin het gaat heel hard nu ja
Ja de vrouwen hier worden langzaam gekker en gekker
The femin-nazi woman are everywhere :O I thought it was just the uk that had it bad lol
Western woman are the devil 😂
Super inspiring story! Currently 23 years old living in the US working a corporate job. Blessed to have a decent job but so bored in the US ready for a change. Working hard on creating online income so I can have that location freedom.
I'm 29 right now. Was prioritizing work over my social life and my mental state.
Recently began travelling and socializing again.
Went to Japan, fell inlove with the vibe/people over there. I might go to Thailand in April myself, see how it is.
I currently live in The Netherlands, but I don't like it here at all no more. Might start looking into my future elsewhere on short term.
I feel like the problem of prioritizing work will always come into play whenever you plan to settle down anywhere. I think it's just a part of life that you can't really just enjoy life without putting in the work somewhere. It's why I usually work my ass off for 2 years then go on a 3 month break
@@Steve-nk6vl Thing is, I never really bothered to do anything but work, for the past 6 years.
I also started to dislike The Netherlands in general, it has been changing in a rapid motion and affected the overal mood and interaction with people here.
Now-a-days, everyone is hostile af. Way too much crime happening on the daily. People becoming so self-absorded that even greeting someone makes you feel like you're being frowned upon, cause it's barely common.
Everyone looks depressed and grumpy.
Im 26, went to uni, have a pretty good job with good prospects and have a decent amount of savings. But I am just generally so unhappy with my life. I need something like this.
At 47, I'm getting my first chance to do this type of move and transition. Many people don't realize the changes they can make until retirement age, which is at least mid 60s in the US. Now, to figure out how to get rid of years of stuff I've collected over the years!
this is YOUR life now! nobody can tell you what to do. excited to see more content
Just got back to the UK from 2.5 months in Thailand....And I can't wait to get back, you definitely made the right decision.
I came to Thailand when I was 28, now I'm 43 and still in Thailand 🙂
Wow good for you! I can see why, this country is hard to get away from 😅
Are you from Laos a d came to work in Thailand? 😁
Youre giving me hope mate. I am currently stuck at a corporate job with no exciting plans or a future. Ive been thinking of this move for a while now. Just gotta find the niche to provide so I can work remotely or online.
You can do it mate. Knuckle down, focus on yourself, and the ideas will soon start flowing. Don't be afraid of taking risks, no one successful out there got to their position without taking risks 👌
You're going to need to save 5 million Thai baht for a 20 year visa
@@HH-uj8piIf you’d work for a company there, do you still need this atrocity of an amount to live there?
Same here im 32, in the midst of a career change. In the sports coaching line for the past 12 years. But am pivoting to becoming a web developer.
Florida is killing me. my base bills are over $3500 USD a month, and I live in a 1500 sq ft home (it is new, but still). I make money, but a divorced ruined my finances 10 years ago and almost every other country looks better to me these days. 100k a year, and people still live paycheck to paycheck. There has to be more to life.
You've hit the nail on the head mate. Wages are high but cost of living is forcing people to live paycheck to paycheck. The west has fallen downhill so much over the past 10 years 😣
@@TravelGlitchtrue!!
1500 SQ foot... I life in a 1 room apartment 😂 28 square meters 😂😂😂
You got a like and a sub from me! I'm on a similar journey now and, if you think it's scary at 30, try it in your upper 40s! I'm reevaluating a lot of what I thought I wanted and needed out of life and dropping the things I don't truly need and focusing a lot of time on weeding through the things I wanted to cut the chaff and get to the truly important bits. Keep it up, and pursue your happiness.
Exactly the video I needed. I’m off to Thailand in May next year for a month travel trip, flights booked. But I’d love to move to Thailand and that’s still the primary goal. Thanks for the video
Uk is done , finished. Im moving to Thailand summer next year brother
My amazing Ukrainian girlfriend and I are looking into establishing roots in Montenegro, Croatia or Cyprus. Living here in the US just ain’t cutting it for us anymore, this vid is very inspiring. Cheers! 😎
Croatia and Montenegro are beautiful. In fact Croatia has to be one of the most beautiful countries in Europe, in my honest opinion. Good luck friend
I've just got back from Croatia, definitely beautiful, but how expensive is it!!
I left the uk over two years ago - gave up and sold everything. Been living in Phuket since.
Currently in the process of the same thing. Liquidating all of my belongings and on a plane to Pattaya in February!!!!! See you in Pattaya!
Rajasthan, India. I live on $120 a month.
I moved here in February. Gave up on the uk 🇬🇧 stupid prices & fed up of working like a hamster 🐹 on a wheel for nothing , paying bills only , not having a life .. happy so far. A bold move yes , but as the cliche saying goes ‘ life is too short ‘. All my family are deceased.
You're right John, life's too short, you got to do what makes you happy in the moment 👍 hope things are working out for you here mate
@@TravelGlitch thank you. So far all is good 👍
Moved from London to Spain in 2019, best thing I ever done
I’ve been wanting to do the same thing but idk what I’m good with or skills I have that could help others. I just bartend for work, workout sometime, and enjoy video games.
Just graduated and got a tefl, applying to teaching english in thailand, trying to move over ASAP. im 26, sick of trying to date in the uk, 100% i will have better chances of settling with a good woman in thailand
Great that you made your decision while still being young. I'm thinking about moving to Thailand but I'm 60 and wish I'd thought of it sooner. I have dual citizenship for Canada and the US but the cost of living is high in both of those countries. Didn't realize you had a passion for fitness. I started bodybuilding at 19 and so have been at it for over 41 years myself. Keep up the good work.
Amazing, well done buddy. I lived there for 6 months back in 2007, its paradise. Thanks for the inspiration. Some day hopefully!!!!!
Great story . I'm in the process of doing similar selling everything and moving to Thailand full time . I have a 2 month trip boked for DEC/JAN then its back to the UK to cross the dots on everything before the move next summer .
This video inspired me I’m 37 living in the UK, I’ve lived the same sort of life as you been to Thailand loads of times, Cambodia and Goa India and eventually run out of cash and have to come back to the UK. The Western world is screwed now inflation is sky high, the weather is terrible and people are miserable and we will have to work til we drop so good to you for escaping the rat race. I’ll be back out in Thailand soon gonna start doing freelance work and hopefully don’t have to go home.
I love this story! Well done mate!
Hey Bro, just subbed. Looking forward to your content. I have fallen in love with Thailand. 3 trips in 18 months. My first being Phuket Sandbox January 2022 the moment our boarders opened - Back again for my 40th in August 2022 - and 3rd trip June/July this year. Since coming back I know now I don’t want another “Holiday” in Thailand…. I want to move there! I have gone down the rabbit hole of looking for work online, also approached my employer about doing my call centre job over there. All to no avail. I will keep looking, and doing as you suggest of working on myself! Looking forward to your content moving forward! Cheers!
Keep looking mate! Once you end up living here you'll never look back. All the best mate 👍
Kudos to you! TH is probably one of the best places in SEA and so many options to choose from.
Just came across your content, it's very good, I wish you all the best on your journey, I've been thinking about traveling to Thailand and your tips have been extremely useful and has given me the confidence to go there one day, cheers
Great Video, mate! Very inspiring. Subbed
That’s a very bold move, and I support your dream. Welcome to Thailand! 😊
Moved to Bangkok 1 year ago after leaving Melbourne where i lived for 7 years. such a great decision
Sometimes you just have to take a chance and go for it! Nothing ventured, nothing gained as they say. Well done mate, Thailand is whatever you make it as long as you adapt and go with the flow.Cheers mate! all the best!
Love that! Thanks man 🙏
Great job...this it motivating to start mine back up and make the move.
Glad I could be of some inspiration, do it! 👍
Unless things change drastically, it’s downhill for Europe from here on.. at least Thailand celebrates all the good qualities of the human condition...whereas for most of the west it seems to be the opposite.. good luck with your new adventure.👍
Australia is so expensive mate
Next year I will have enough to star a new life in Thailand
Wish you the best of luck and hopefully see you around 👍
Come to Europe 😂
BRO, Im coming to Pattaya in a few days for vacations! IF you want, let meet and have some fun together! Would be happy to hear from u
Suggested content 🙌🏻
Flawless execution Ryan. Love it!
Thanks Sammy! See you soon 🙏
did the same mate.......beats living like a ghost back home in ireland......feel alive again now in thailand
Thailand looks intriguing, I actually do have the job to do this..work 3 months and take a few months off...going to Thailand!
Love your energy! Good luck mate! Keep the eye on the prize and the future is bright for you!
How have you managed to make money in thailand as im wanting to move myself
Haha too funny bro. Im a bald/fit/tatted 30y/o as well. I traveled for two years through asia back in my early 20s. I'd kill to be there full time. I'm from Canada and things are definitely looking grim for our generation and younger!
I got lucky and bought a house before everything went insane. If I sold everything I'd probably have around 200k. I also have a job where im at 100k CAD a year with lots of perks.
I could get by in Thailand for some years off just savings but I wouldn't want to potentially have to return one day with nothing and start from scratch. The ideal situation for me would be to somehow set up a passive income before leaving so I can enjoy my time over there and not worry about work. I'm not a high maintenance person so it wouldn't need to be anything too crazy! Not much of a computer guy so the task of doing everything online seems quite large.
Enjoy your time brother. Power move !
Awesome stuff man, yeah if you got that passive income set up, maybe buy a house and rent it out, that'd be perfect to maintain here! All the best man 👍
Yeah mate it's fucked everywhere here in Aussie paying min 1x on most things👊🏼 wages up 0.8% across the board
Thank u for your story! I'm dreaming al long time about moving to Thailand
defo be giving the books a read, loved the video look forward to seeing more, smashing it!
Gosh 30 is young! That not too okd to study! I am 45 and thats feeling a bit old, maybe. Your video is of excellent quality considering you're new to UA-cam. My first 100 or so videos were terrible! Well done! And well done on being brave.
Thank you 😁 I guess 30 isn't that old, just being surrounded by 18-20 year old studying would make me feel old 😅
Great story and all the best mate! Keep up the great work and keen for upcoming vlogs.
Well done mate! Takes guts to re-invent yourself but 30 is the time to do it. Go for the dreams!!
Liked, subbed and looking forward for more amazing content
Thanks for the kind words mate 👍
I partied 20 years until 38, then I rebuild my life, now I am 47 and I will once again leave everything behind and build a new life in Bangkok, rather start to build it there and see where it leads me.
I don't care anymore.
Safety is just a feeling, everything in life comes with risks and nothing is sure, just that I am going to die one day. I am not going to spend the rest of my life waiting for that day and when it comes, I will be excited to see the train running in front of my eyes, with all those memories of a life that everybody else just dreams about. I will have met so many interesting people, learned new languages, seen the world and spend my time finding something like a meaning in all of this.
It doesn't matter how old you are. It's just your head that makes it harder everyday to change something. Everything else is just bullshit that other people made up about what a "successful" life is supposed to look like.
It's just you making a decision and that's it.
Great insightful vid ... glad you succeeded in achieving your goals - Takes a good amount of courage and dedication to do what u did - Continued success
Crazy I came across this video! I'm doing the same thing. Gonna be headed out next June. Have full military pay I'm only 38. I'm done with the US. My base will be thailand (phuket or bangkok) from there travel to different places. It's time for a new chapter. Good luck man
Good luck to you when you arrive too mate! Maybe see you around 👍
Nice Video easy to watch. I wish you the best success and hope all your dreams come true in Pattaya it's a lovely place! Don't drink too much! 555
I read the same book aged 40 and it really put things into perspective.
Im in the exact same situation as you before you moved to Thailand. And I'd also would like to do an online business and work remotely. The thing is I dont have any skills. What should I do?
I mean I can play the E Guitar decent but not perfectly, and I am good at drawing. Would you recommend dropshipping? Ive no idea how to get into it
Nice video mate. I am Italian, but based in the UK. Remote job, but now the company has asked to go back in the office once a week. And as a Facebook ad campaign manager, this annoy me. As I can work from anywhere. The prices in here are super high now. So I am looking to move abroad in 2024.
How did you get around the required work permit because you absolutely need one
Visited Thailand before ,was glad to return to Ireland
Hey man, congratulations and nice video! I'm at exactly the same point in my life, and pretty scared to sell all my belongings this December when I return to clear out my rental flat in Berlin since there's the same BS happening in Germany, with a massive housing shortage and no way I'll find another cheap flat like that ever again. BUT - there's really no perspective in Europe anymore, and the quality of life in SE Asia is just too good, rooftop pools and all. Am still scared about whether I'll be able to make enough money remotely, but surely things will fall into place. Good luck to you man, keep it up!
Thanks for the comment mate and best of luck on your travels if you bite the bullet and make the move! It may be scary but no success story ever happened without a little risk 👍
Hey mate. Awesome guy, good voice, presentation, video editing , and music. This channel has a great potential to success. Concentrate on the topics. Most older successful expats' channels in Thailand have as a maximum of 80K to 100K subscribers. Wish you all the success 👍😊 to overpass that number.
Thanks mate appreciate the kind words! Will definitely try to think outside the box with some unique topics 👍
Wow. I like your story. It is honest, straight forward and inspiration. Part of it does inspire me about something I should do.
Living in Pattaya is amazing. The city is so vibrant and lot of fun as well as so much business opportunity.
Wish you all the best living in Thailand mate. 👍
Thank you mate! You're right, Pattaya is a beautiful city 👍
certainly a way better life outside of club chemistry! Good on you Ryan, keep smashing it.
Don't remind me of club chem 😂
I'm 30 now, and just barely making it. Rent is too high, car payment is killing me. I don't know what to do :(
Move to Thailand apparently 😅🤡
Have a blessed life brother ❤
Great inspiring video, well made and you're really likeable and relatable. Hope it works out for you, I see great things ahead brother 👍🏻
Great content mate. Well done on your success 💪
Trying my hardest to find a job online so i can live in Thailand but every company in the west needs you to be based in your home country
Daunting massively but you pulled it off big props. You must have gotten really good at dealing with things that others struggle with and get overwhelmed with. But well done.

It also takes courage.Irrespective, everyone needs an objective that is achievable and then a realistic plan to get to that objective.You are a winner if you finally achieve it without losing sight of the journey and experiencing some satisfaction along the way, even if it takes 20 plus years. Instant gratification and believing in the "Instagram life" won't get people there.
Well done mate keep going, live your best life 👍🏽
Well done sir. I wish u a happy life , that u will 100% have there 😍
Great motivational video and loved hearing your story. I currently live in someone's basement just so I could pay off my debt, which I have and saving up right now. And you're so right, we all tend to live to show off our lifestyles to others, which nobody really cares about. So good you took that year to work on yourself.
By the way, Have you read the book Profit First? Awesome book that will help you manage your money. Also, Crush it by Gary Vaynerchuk.
Thanks mate! I've heard of those books, I'll keep a look out see if I can grab them 👀
What visa are you on bro?
Yeah you moved there but how do you generate an income?
I probably couldn’t survive in England now. Financially I’m better off in America…. But I’m definitely seeing Thailand as an option down the line
So you are in USA illegally?
@@user-wm2tw No.
Come to Germany 😂😂😂
Lots of illegals from UK are in US and Canada. Taking up jobs. That’s why I asked.
@@user-wm2tw anyone working abroad illegally runs the risk of being deported. Not a life I want waiting for a knock on the door. You can’t make any life plans like that. But I guess people get desperate for survival. This is a reality of life.
If you had enough money. Thailand is heaven on earth. 🎉
I did the same, moved from Sweden to Koh Phayam Thailand 12 years ago... Build a house and and 3 small buisnesses... No cars, no phones or internet was working, pure paradise... btw Pattaya and Phuket are my two least popular places in all Thailand ;) but i am not into the prostitution thing so...
Subbed! Thanks for the video mate, getting inspired!
Congrats on working on yourself and finding yourself in Thailand. Man I've had a job since I was 17 and I'm 41 now. Have grinded it out at the same company making 6 figures for the past 10+ years but was never really happy. I went to Thailand for a few days because my little brother was on a asia singing tour with his band and absolutely fell in love with everything in Thailand. These types of videos plus my trip made me really want to leave everything behind and just live simpler for sure. Easy sub and excited to see your journey and maybe be in Thailand in the near future. If you could talk about how to stay there long term that would be good content. Like how to buy a condo, renting, how to extend your visa if you are not retired, etc. I would also love to know how the gyms are there too. I work out quite often as well and definitely would pay a premium for a nice gym. Maybe you can be the Jessie James West of Thailand hahaha. Anyways glad I came across your channel!
The Jesse James West of Thailand sounds like a plan! Don't think I could match his energy though 😂 thanks for the kind words mate, glad you're strapped in for the journey!
i support your story from now. enjoy your time
I did it at 46
Best decision I ever made
You made a good video, thanks! And enjoy your time in Thailand!
Thank you 🙏
I know you from GG's stream. Man I miss those cooking streams those were hilarious. I also tuned in when you streamed on Twitch as well on MushyP. Never thought you would pop up in my UA-cam recommended after so long. Good to see you are doing well. Hope I can also do this in the future. Best of luck 💯💯
Time flies! Mad that I pop up on recommended, love that 👍
Can anyone explain why the UK is so bad?
Even if he was on minimum wage and working 40 hours a week, he'd be on 1,800 a month. Now take 400 for tax and insurance. How is can you spend over 1k a month if you live at your parents home?
Living with your parents at home is not nice at 30 years old, for me anyway. I want independence, to move out, which if I did would suck like 70% of those earnings straight on rent, no chance for any savings. Thailand offers me independence due to the lower living costs, and a better way of life, so I thought why not 👍
Yeah, I dont blame you. I dont think UK is that bad but for you Thailand was 100% the better option@@TravelGlitch
I didn't even sell my stuff. I came here like one of those immigrant stories, with xxx baht to my name, and the clothes on my back. Then as if it was destined to be, things worked themselves out. Came here in my early 30s, still here in my later 30s. Everything I have is here in TH. Business, wife, condo, house... mom who immigrated here for retirement, and a old life left behind, we gave away most of the stuff we owned, to make sure we didn't have to stay there any longer than we needed.
