What is a reasonable monthly budget for a single retiree living in Bangkok on an LTR visa?

Todd *********

@Griff ******

all true. But what are you saving it in the Scwab account for? Maybe something significant. But i saved for a fun retirement. And Thailand gets fantastic luxury for a great price. You can't find that in many countries. May as well enjoy

What are the tax implications for a US employee working remotely in Thailand on a DTV visa for less than 180 days?

Todd *********

@Tiffany *********

yes, and if you become tax resident of Thailand (stay 180 days) then defer to the Thailand - IRS tax treaty for any tax liability here for you personally. If under 180 days - no issue. But i was referring to your company's tax liability IF they have employees in Thailand (or anywhere). Uncle Sam always wants his share

@Jenny *****

it actually would have tax liability in country of origin if employees located in Thailand. That’s the challenge she is facing. And what the accountants are likely telling her

You are on LTR and want to keep it under $2k?!? Why?

Overall, that’s insanely cheap. In BKK, one can literally live for any amount they wish. $1k USD month is possible. But meager.

$5k USD would afford a pretty decent lifestyle. And $10k USD a pretty luxurious lifestyle.

@Jim ******

yes. Very small money. But why throw it in the garbage? Not exactly how most people become successful.

Unless you love standing in line at the bank and immigration every year 🤷‍♂️

I think most people do that. Just leave the 800k untouched. Very easy for immigration to see and understand
