If THB800k or THB65k per month is an issue I suggest you would struggle to find a decent quality of life here…

The Police in Phuket now have surveillance cameras in some of their police cars that detect overstayers in real time - not scaremongering, true fact. Do as Tod recommends

I’m no expert but I understand you can maintain your own home, but not setup a commercial business

Back to the actual question…

As a Thailand resident you can open an account with Saxo Bank in Singapore, who offer a wide selection of equities, ETFs, bonds, money market funds, managed funds etc from most countries you would be interested. Multiple currencies available. If you have any issues opening an account ping me and I have a contact there.

In comparison the Thai banks seem to offer retail products with horrendous hidden sales commissions, very Thailand oriented investments and of course a VIP card that gets you a special parking space at Central 😂😂

I suggest most people here know where Bangkok is, without the need to add “Thailand” 😉

Best advice I can give is to prepare to lose all your deposit. Anything better than that will be an unexpected surprise

I did that trip once. Tiny 2 carriage train, that was late departing and took nearly 7 hours to arrive. I caught the bus back to Bangkok

…or you could just choose to be happy about your newfound fame and look for the positives 🙂
