Okay folks. Doing a bunch of mental maths. Been in the prep stage for business for lady for a while. I'd like a sense of how much I am looking at spending if I want to do it as my business. Looking at the non business specific added costs as I assume these are the same for a shop or restaurant or whatever.

My question is: I am going to travel. Do not know how long where to and how. Could you please give me an estimate of the costs?

I don't think that is a fair mockery. The startup cost of a donut shop and a video arcade are totally different. The fees that a farang must pay to open either of them are likely the same.
