Same apply when buying a condo in Thailand with money remit from overseas and a letter from the your Thai bank manager.
Personally, I would rather go on a regular trip than staying or retired in Thailand. Still cheaper & convenience and less headache of visa run.
Agreed, a regular short trip is good. Unless want to have thai wife and settle down there

It all depends on what kind of lifestyle u could be pursuing here in bkk.
For 34,000 baht a month, u will really need to budget on housing/lifestyle etc. U will also need to extend your stay via visa options like tourist/visa runs etc. Not that u have plenty of options unless u have some savings in your bank which u can have more options available.
U will probably have to rent a studio bedroom and be living among the common Thais. Could u speak thai as well? What will u be doing most of the time when u are in bkk ? U might have to ask yourself these questions.
no. I can't speak Thai. I can pick it up via android apps but I don't understand as in I can speak but can't have a conversation.
1k USD is enough to stay in BKK. I am a living example. Those who mentioned cannot, guess either they have not actually stay in Bkk and only hear, say from others or they living in luxury, every meal 500thb, staying in high end condo and with driver moving around. As for Visa, there are options u can explore.
A price indication,
1) Condo 10-15k
2) Food 5-10k
3) Internet and cable 2k
4) Mobile 500thb
5) Elec and water 2.5k
6) Misc 5k
thank you very much. I'm 39. I'm going there alone and see if I can lead a better life than Singapore.
Thailand is a country which in my humble opinion that as long as u have $$, u will be able to overcome most of the obstacles/problems faced.
Firstly, most of the visas like spouse visa/retirement visa/elite visas' have a basic requirement. $$! As long as u have the necessary basic requirement 400k/800k/500k respectively, u will be able to enjoy unlimited stay based on the current immigration regulations. For as little as $11 per day, u could get a hassle free 5 years elite visa with multiple entries.
For those who might want to try out short term living in Thailand, there's tourist visa/student visa/visa run subjected to 2 times a year/extension after 30days to choose from. As long as u meet the requirement for the visa, u can extend your stay in Thailand. Unlike in SG. U are subjected to scrutiny by our stringent immigration officers. Based on your frequencies/length of stay in SG.
I think most but not all are initially attracted to the nightlife of Bangkok which is why many really want to shift their base to Bangkok. No doubt there are also some who prefer the outside city kind of lifestyle in Chiangmai etc.
Condos/apartments on the outskirts and further out of Bangkok are definitely cheaper and bigger in terms of sqm. Unless u do not need to travel daily into the city, u can opt for that. Condos are sprouting everywhere nowadays. U can probably buy 2-3 condos at outskirts at the price of 1 in the heart of Bangkok.
outskirts? can give an example? I do day game and was hoping I can pull normal girls to get laid.

You seem to be coloured in your perspective (with your self admission) of thai ladies. For the nocturnal ladies, it's only their livelihood or cari makan.

It is always good to stay humble as a foreigner in thailand even though one has a load of cash.
Keep some cash away from your thailand GFs and maybe future wife safely in our home country.
You dont really know what can happen once you get their KC trap.
Enjoy your long trip in Thailand.
Looks like we are same age buddy.
Off topic,
I will be heading to Chonburi and Rayong this week.
Any good lobangs to suggest in these 2 places (excluding Pattaya)

Ya, he should hang out with normal girls, those bar girls or FL will only talk about $
Sometime you should also try to pick up girls from salon or make up shops, if correct moves apply you could have a kinky night
