Is a 120k nest egg and 17800/year pension sufficient for retiring in Thailand as a UK citizen and working as a diving instructor?

Pat ******

Thats what i am thinking … i recommend to buy… if you plan to stay here long time then better buy and after 2 years aproxm you will be even .. and then you own the bike .. if you stay for 2 weeks or 2 months then mabey better to rent .
