I know a guy who retired there on $1,500 a month. As long as you don't need much medical attention it's enough. Of course, if you're out every night drinking and chasing women you'll need a lot more.

decent apartments are available in bangkok, chaing mai, pattaya for around 300/400 american per month; you can get cheaper, as low as 100 american but you may not be happy with the facility; at 400, you will get @800sq ft (furnished if you want) with all the amenities; concerning food-if you eat at thai restaurants-12/day wil;l do; starbucks, mcdonalds,etc are generally the same price as us; as far as entertainment/tours-hard to say as i don't know your taste-so in conclusion-800 to 1000 per month would allow you to live very well in thailand. Enjoy! i have been all over thailand several times, my wife is thai and we always enjoy going there.

Thai baht is strengthening quite rapidly: of course in much of the same direction with the rest of the Asian currencies. First, you must define the level of comfortable living in Thailand would be. To live just above the poverty line, 300-400 dollars will do. A decent living with family, 1500 is ok. If you make 5000 dollars a month you can effort to take roots here with nice condo and a car, sending kids to school. With 10000 a month over, well you can go crusing on luxury ships three times a year. Your kids to private international school, and later probably a boarding school in the UK or Switzerland and may be Oxford or Cambridge degree. Thailand and Bangkok would be heaven with Ferrari or Lamborghini with your own boat a villa near the beach, a resort house by the open national park at Khao Yai with live animals on the free, and flying lesson or even small jet plane with ten million dollars a year over. I'd like to think the last one is comfortable.

My rental house is just 130$ per month My expenditure for food & meal just 200$ per month For transportation about 100$ per month All above my calculation is base on my life and work style. I could not estimate for you. But my uncle who just heading back from us to staying in Thailand after his retirement, he said the expense for Thailand is just 15-20% of what he spent in us. Sound so good right? Cheap life cost

Well, alot depends on the where and what questions - where do you want to live? I live in Central Thailand and you can rent a real decent 2-3 bdrm Western Style house for $150 a month - I own but my expenses for a/c and water are abt $30 a month - food can be a bargain especially if you stick w/Thai food - and I am talking $1 a meal and less - of ocurse, it goes up from there... - then it is down to life style - just as any place else; having a few beers costs more than a glass of water... good luck - but you can count on it being cheaper for the basics by a good bit... nad more fun too...
