Your breakdown in your expenses is stupid and unrealistic. Christmas presents? Doctor's appointments? Coffee? 3000 baht? You've plucked figures out of the air. The OP wants a ballpark figure. He's retired. You're young. Where's the similarities. He doesn't have kids. Jesus man, you're way off the mark
And that's your freedom of choice, which is great. I haven't contradicted myself once, you perhaps have some comprehension issues. It's not you who's requesting feedback is it? So you don't have to consider every single comment. Jeremy started his post with the comment "by my standards" but you're reluctant to accept that. I suggest someone with the name True Blue is a fake profile who enjoys trolling.
If you only want to consider that $400 one, I guess that's your choice! Personally I'd be looking at all of them, but I'm not seeking feedback. I've lived here for 15 years, so I've got a pretty good idea of my living expenses
I don't think he recommended it. I think he was giving the lower-end perspective. What is possible. I couldn't do it, no way in the world, but my lifestyle is a little more lavish, but I'm sure many do. I think the OP was looking for feedback across the board so he'd get a good balanced "feel" of living costs
That's up to him to budget accordingly. As I said before many people rely on GoFundMe when they get sick. How do you know he has insurance in his BIG bike? I'm only speaking generally. If Thai people can live on meagre income, so can expats.
