#BESTYEAROFMYLIFE
I can't think a more honest youtube channel than yours richie, never a dull moment and always a story to tell. Well done on your successes I'm sure you'll have plenty more with that great attitude.
Living in paradise is not easy , it’s ok to visit and go back home , but your hard work is inspiring , thank you for keeping it real and honest
i have followed your site since the early days. I even met you in your coffee shop in 2021 a few months after it was setup. I love your videos cause of the honestly and enthusiasm. Thank you for showing the reality of expat life in Phuket, not just the dream or fantasy life. Keep running, keep fighting, keep smiling. Tthe story is in the journey. Once you succeed and your on your boat, villa and expensive car with a rolex, you will have succeeded and your videos will cease to be so attractive . The struggle for success is your story.
Another great video, who needs cars, watches etc. Sand between my toes and breakfast at maybells is all I crave. You guys are awesome. See you soon.
You’re living the Dream Richie! Maybelle’s Coffee Garden is totally beautiful! We went there for the first time in 2022 and again earlier this year! Will definitely be going there again when we get a chance to go back to Phuket 😊 Hope Maybelle & Maycie are doing well & thanks for posting this video:)
I love the beginning where you really took the leap of faith and went for your dream. I want to go live in Bali and am sitting on the edge of taking that leap. Being on my own it is scary. I don’t want to start a business, I’m financial enough to do it but scared of failing to fulfil my dream.
You were still single and had some cash
To be fair, I watched the early videos. He started in London doing a training video, moved to Thailand at the start of Covid to be with his gf, and met up with Maybelle on Phi Phi at the hotel she worked. And you can look at the video of how much he turned up with and spent. It wasn’t a lot.
@@DiscoDrew okay so like I said he was single and had some cash
Richie said in one of his earlier videos that he spent a lot of money when first coming to Thailand. @DiscoDrew
@@brianbarbarich1401 He's The Legend of Patong!
That's the most Top G quote you've ever said mate... "My Decision in the morning is decide which beach should I walk on to make a video"
Best thing you've said on a video 🤣 We're feeling the same, we wake up and have a tough decision on which lovely café to get our morning coffees.
Glad all seems to be going good mate. Hope Maybelle and Maisie are doing well too 👍
Thumbs up 👍 Richie! Being an entrepreneur is in our blood. I remember when I opened my business back in 1994-those 10-14 hour days were tough but exhilarating. Now, I’m fortunate enough to split my time between the US and Phuket, enjoying the best of both worlds.
I’m thrilled to you and Maybelle embark on your journey. The best is yet to come 😎
Ive followed you since your first videos on yt so watched you go from novice start up to an amazing business and lifestyle. Proud of you buddy!
Sadly it went down hill after meeting your wife.. 😂😂😂good luck..😊
onya richie. cant believe its been 4-5 years following yr journey . u helped me get through 2020. my shout when i get there.
helped me too at the time
Proud of you, brother. Keep up the good work.
Good luck from Hua Hin
I have been 16 year in Thailand and love it
I really do love your straightforward self-assesments and the ability to laugh about it even about the things that didn't work perfectly. Always nice to listen to your vids.
>WHY 2020 WAS THE BEST YEAR OF MY LIFE ! That's great. But why are you releasing this four year old video now?
Hey guys ! We were over in Phuket 2 weeks ago and dropped by the cafe ---- Unfortunately, we were too late and you were closed 😭😭Oh, well -- next time perhaps we can collab on a Thailand clip... We've got a few vlogs coming up... Great to hear how good things got for you in 2020 !!
Keep going - high season will be here before you know it - you will have 2 businesses going this high season so next low season you will have no issues. All the best.
Most men would say the birthday of their first child makes for the best year of your life.
Not me, the year my child was born was the worst year of my life filled with tragedy and disappointment.
I don't know any man who said the year their child was born was their best year cause most men's lives are the same monotonous trudge day after day with the odd moment of joy. 👍
@@asiatravels007 sad
Phuket is pretty pricey.Pattaya is half the price
Your success is your beautiful wife, Maybelle, beside you! You 2 make a great team! Keep cherishing each other.
Hope you succeed as you have put your heart and sole in to living the dream in Thailand ❤
หาดทรายชายทะเลด้านหลังคุณน่ะ มันสวยจริงๆค่ะ💕แชร์ไห้แล้วนะคะ🙏
Awesome to hear someone with a positive spin on life mate! Keep enjoying it to the full mate!
Hey Richie
What a great vlog.. feeling inspired to start a new week… your vlogs from 2020 were really great especially when you showed the breakdown of your savings etc. just wondered how that would compare to todays rates would it be enough to start a business for someone making the move in 2024?
Keep up the good work you are doing great things
Karon/Kata aka Moscow. Place has been overcrowded for some time now. Davao I hear you calling
Hi Maybelle & Richie,
We are following you for 4 years already from France. Thank you for your sharing, it's a pleasure to follow honest people that not show only the best part of their life!
We are a 29 and 34 years old French-Thai couple with a 4 years old son, we are working as chefs here in South West coast of France and we are planning to move to Thailand ASAP and open our business restaurant. My question is: how much money do you recommend to come with to open a restaurant around Phuket (without talking about lifestyle on the side) ?
Thank you for all your content, hope to meet you soon when we will go back to Thailand after summer! Cheers !
Like your positive thinking and energy.....
That's moving us on ... and make as happy.👍🙏
Spectacular Video Richie. Your story is the template for what it takes to succeed no matter what the course of action and path one is on. I have a brother in Hawaii in a similar roll as you. Everyone said he would hit the wall of island life after 5 or 6 years, well it has been nearly 12 now and he has a good stable business going, some acreage of land with Dragon Fruit growing and dozens of clients in his vacation rental business. My daughter in Florida building her performance marketing firm with a few dozen high level clients and businesses. She too packed up, left New England and let go of a bad marriage and started over and now working with top level people and raising her kids to be independent and focused . Very glad to have met you and Maybelle back in 2022 at Paddy's victory party. I knew then you two would be people to watch and learn from. Keep going!
I absolutely agree Richie. New life abroad and new adventures would be ideal. For me, not having a new born or any baby is my life goal, so congrats on a great start. And maybe a so-so current situation.
Mate, you are having a go. You are providing for your family. No criticism from me, only praise.
You can do it Richie, remember you renovated last year , it also took some of your savings.. in a couple of years you will be sitting pretty.. have faith. . . Stay strong and happy 🤗🤗🤗😍
Good for you and Maybelle. I have a small business with my in Japan and we started in 2020 as well. I understand how hard it can be. Starting a business in a foreign country is hard, but it’s a better life than the mainstream jobs that are accessible to expats. Keep working and it will fall in place.
I like that idea of the garden…start that dream now, as it takes a while to grow the landscape, do it!
Your living it and loving it mate...even if it's good or bad...salute you mate...you've got business acumen and the right attitude..work hard play hard...looking forward to dropping in..👌👍
Just come bak in 6 months when things are good mate ..but you sound desperate Ritchie it's a sad story but just keep the faith.. all the best to you and family ❤
Nice one Ritchie mate , I absolutely love your mental approach to everything you do , your bang on about how you need to rise too the challenges..you've done bloody marvellous mate in 4 years , long may it continue fella ....take care my friend, lee over in a cold and windy 🇬🇧
Hater’s will hate 💯 keep doing what u doing bro ! Love watching your videos 😉👍
Thanks for clearing that up ... too many people in here, thinking about living the dream, which is totally nonsense ... it is hard working, it is struggeling, it is a lot of thinking and improving, till it hopefully leads to a life, which has that wanted quality ... and Richie, if you are informed, tell us about the real estate prices on Phuket 👍 ... thx and all the best !
Keep living the dream Richie and maybelle keep sending the positive vibes to the uk see you at maybelles in November 😊😊
every day and every year is my best in my life , I woke up every morning , some people don't woke up !!!
Great video buddy
Me too I paid off my mortgage on my rental properties and set my self up for retirement in Thailand by next year at 38yo. Me now loves me from 2020
youve become accomplished Richie, well done mate!
I’m just looking for my next travel to Thailand. Maybe to Karon. Can you recommend to some where to stay? We want to stay for “1”week
Sorry fore my English I’m from Sweden 😁
Restaurant Life is very hard…as my husband had 3 Mexican restaurants and I hated it…tooooo much work! He got into the mortgage business and never looked back and it’s now been over 30+ years!
Just wanted to put this up on your channel rich,
I’ve been watching your vids for last few years,now,
And I always said if I ever got the chance to ever pop into maybelles coffee garden that I would,
And today was that day mate, 😜🇹🇭☀️
honestly mate lovely food and lovely service and all round top gaff 👌🏻
My oldest boy of 19 years old said the chicken Katsu curry you served up was the best meal he has had in Thailand 🇹🇭
And trust me being here for just over 2 weeks we have had a few already 🤣 🍽️ 😮💨
Thanks again we all loved it,
You have enjoyed health, that is the most important thing,dont take it for granted.
You’ve done well Richie.
First.
Everyday is the first day of the rest of your life. The only thing to regret is not trying.
Always stay optimistic Richie you guys are doing great. See you soon 👍🏻🙏
Some nice positive vibes, right there, 🙏
It’s a brave step needs a lot of planning & luck.
Hello Richie & Maybelle! Alway appreciate your open, honest and unassuming narrative style. Am truly happy for you realizing your dreams and successes. You have a wonderful life with Maybelle and the baby. Made my comments before you used the same words! Truthfulness is one of my strong points, as I always speak my mind. It's prudent to have multiple revenue streams and options from a security perspective. It's all about opportunity and timing. Demand and supply always dictate pricing. A successful serious business is about profit and working hard, not a hobby in breaking even and leisure time. No need to explain or justify yourself to anyone! My family and I have been restauranteurs for decades in Southern California (Ventura location 1931-1995; Thousand Oaks location 1970-2002); recognize your effort and determination to succeed. It is one of the hardest industries in which to do well. It's a good fit for you with your personality. Do not let pessimism or pessimists into your "world". they always suck all the oxygen out of the room. As always, be safe, happy & healthy! P.S. Always in your corner, my Brother!
Keep laughing mate, you’re killing it 👍
Keep going, it will work out, a successful person is just someone that tried one more time
Another great video Richie. Arriving in Kata next week. What's the best day to visit MCG again to have another chat over a beer and food?
Your on the right track Richie 👍👍
It's all about scottich pride!
Good on ya mate👍
you are one happy happy man, congratz 🙂
This is life mate! You do it right! What’s the point of Waiting to be retired and hating life every day because of our job.. being a sheep is boring. Real people like you! Get up, make a new life, make things happen, don’t wait until it s too like! You do it right! Follow you from the beginning 😊 also before my ex applied for job at your coffee, though she didn’t get the job😀
Im not renting mine out to no Ruskis
Keep pushing Richie
❤❤❤❤
You are making it work, adapting and moving forward. Good on you two (3) although Maisey's input has been minimal if any. Freeloading up until this point.😃
What about your return of invest? Low and high seasons are another subject. Good luck.
In the west starting a small business most fail in the first 5 years, if your still going after 5 years then your on the way.
Jelous trolls will allways talk shit
Richie, would love to see a more guided tour of Kata and Karon and some recommendations of hotel and restaurants
There is just something about how you talk…whether this was just taped or taped 4 years ago, you still can laugh about it all!
I spent one year in patong absolutely loved it then a went to Cambodia loved that as well then I came back to Australia which turned out to be a great thing for me . I have my family near by I'm part of my grandchildrens lives now i travel twice a year Thailand and Bali . I will pop in and see you in September I will spend up big haa my mate has a bar in Pattaya I'll visit him then I'll be in patong . Let me know if there is something for the bub I could bring with me .
there are talkers and doers ....that's it
Best year of life= becoming a dad?
You have changed so much after becoming a dad. You were much better as a vlogger before. You seem to be bitter.
well done
You can enjoy Thailand more if have money in the bank,not trying to scrape a living talking about it…you owe it to your wife,plenty jobs back home,make the sacrifice…too young trying to get decent living….what about your visa,that’s not cheap…..
I love to stay single. You're the type of person I would invest in because you got good ideas and you show it can work with hard work carry on building
