Retirement Visa and to make it uncomplicated secure the advice of a Visa agent. It'll all get taken care of in under a day without stress and time wasted.
That's understandable; children are their retirement plan. My point is aimed at us frangs who find a nice girl to learn there's 1, 2, 3 kids at home or at her parents. If you want instant family, fine, but realize you'll always be far down the priority list and looked at as even more of an ATM.
Happily, maturity is well regarded in men. I'm more worldly now than at half my age for sure. Lol...too well fed, but I'm working on that and will be in good shape before 2026.
I do consider myself lucky and appreciate that I have the opportunity. But also preparation is important. I was keen on Thailand over 20 years ago. I only recently made the move once I had everything aligned financially, logistically, and my remote work side hustle. I wouldn't be here, nor should anyone else, if one must count every bhat all the time.
I'm retired and I live in the middle of Bangkok; every morning I look out at the skyline and feel so very lucky. I love every minute of the city. My social life is far more exciting than in the West, which is why I'm here. Moving to a more rural area and settling down sounds like a way to end life early! No thanks. Now which skybar should I visit tonight? 🍷🙋♀️
