  • Will Pattaya Kill You? A lite hearted look at Pattaya. will it Kill You.
    Is Pattaya a dangerous place, What draws people there.
    What is the draw card. Is it that it's the biggest red light district in the world. Or is there more to this crazy magical city than just adult entertainment.

    I stuck around for a few months as a subscriber, but I'm unsubscribing.
    I just don't like the constant e-begging. Good folk shouldn't be parted with their money, because some expat' has made - and continues to make - bad life decisions. If you want to p*555 your money up the wall, you do you... just don't rely on the good-nature of random people on the internet, who you don't know (and who don't know you), to be there to support you financially.
    I wish you the best with the court case - but we all know that the Thai 'justice' system is heavily skewed towards Thai nationals, and you're fighting an uphill battle. To pan-handle money from You Tube to fight that (or the fallout from it) isn't ethnical.
    Over, and out.

    I have been watching this guy’s vlogs for some time. He has the hide to be negative about Pattaya. Alcohol is part of the scene, he’s negative about the sex industry, says it’s dangerous to ride motorbikes, but he does; he also asks if anyone should really live in Pattaya or even Thailand. He sold everything in Australia and went to Phuket and had a great time. Had a girl for a while. Argh, was she a sex worker? Dunno? Moved to Jomtien. Vlogging, that’s good. But, wearing thongs in a Go-Go fell down and broke his ankle; probably had a few beers on board. But wait, it gets worse. Hires a prostitute from Thai Friendly to help him with hospital. A few weeks after meeting they start the horizontal aerobics. Decided to spend a lot of money to buy & renovate a bar. Put everything 100% in the name of this Prozzie. She stopped the sex, and apparently gained physical possession of the bar. Claims he will win a court case against this Thai woman and will get his money or the bar back - unlikely. In the meantime, he is relying on YouTubing for a very small income, as well as donations. All through this video this guy tried to act like the “worldly” man who knows about life in Pattaya. However, he was nothing but negative. From the traffic, to the bars, bagging one restaurant chain (Cheap Charlies), complaining about dengue fever and mosquitoes, rubbishing the people of Pattaya but saying how cool he is because he has had a few drinks in some well-known bars, even though he was bagging the bar scene. Talking about or rubbishing Walking Street when he has not been there at night. Basically, he said Pattaya was a crap or horrible place, even alluding it to being a dangerous place, while looking down his nose at the people who visit or live in Pattaya.

      He's got to crap on Pattaya. He was unable to make a go of it, so probably resents all the people going about their lives there who aren't broke. He's trying to knock life in Pattaya because he knows he's going to be forced home. This way he can say he didn't want to be there, anyways.

      Its not surprising when the guy blew all his money in a bar & can't even speak a word of Thai nor wants to. When the chips run dry they blame everyone but themselves for being stupid. Having dealt in the Thai law biz his only claim is the chattels & only if he has them in his name? noone does? Well, using a Thai girl; her name, paying cash no receipts etc he's history getting anything back. The case is too long as its a simple shut & dry. His Thai lawyer will work with the girl as well as thats how they work "as he is paid on results" & if he gets a Court judgement which will cost him to appear a judgement means jack if the other party has no baht??? & so the case keeps on rolling along to nowhere.....thats how the system works. Until you live in all Thailand not just Pattaya you have no comprehension of just how hard it can be when you think its as easy as "I own a Bar"?????

    The best way to enjoy Pattaya is don't get too involved with a Thai bar girl, or girl selling herself online. I been going to Pattaya for 30 years and always had fun. If you ask for trouble you get trouble. Never buy a business with a Thai girlfriend, use a lawyer. As a foreigner you cannot own anything or buy anything in Thailand. Apart from a condo. Ask other foreign business owners first for advice and help. If you rush to buy a bar, you most likely fail and loose or sell it quickly!

    To be brutally honest mate, I’d say that Pattaya/Jomtien is killing you. Be real about your drinking, exercise regime and food you’re eating. I know you broke that ankle, but you are getting visibly larger and would hate to see you leave this place early because of a few bad decisions. Look after yourself and most importantly be real with yourself. Stay safe and healthy.

      @@michaelthegreat44He is almost 60. He should be on retirement track now. He doesn't need "drive". He needs a source of passive income. I agree a more healthy lifestyle would benefit him. However, he clearly is not day drunk (like a lot of Pattaya tourists are) and he says he has been walking substantially each day... so baby steps.... He may be obese but so is 50% of the American population... and the Mexicans unfortunately, have an even greater problem with obesity and an explosion of diabetic complications... Eating and drinking too much is definitely not unique to Thialand.

    Mate, you should mark this video as a turning point in your life. Cut alcohol down to 1x per week. Stop eating street food because it’s full of sugar. Do an audit of your life and think if Pattaya is really the place for you? Maybe it’s time to move on. You get a lot of hate in the commments and I don’t think you deserve it. Although I do think you need to look at your next steps. Head up, stay strong, you got this.

      I think he gets a lot of hate. A lot of it warranted. But the tone and the words used just look like attacks. If he actually saw the message being shown through the hate, he might recognise what a muppet he is being. But, alas, I think he is just a little handicapped..
