Hello,

Greetings! Just want to inform all the readers that currently it's rainy season in Bangkok and we're heading to the wettest month of the year! When sanuking don't forget to bring your umbrellas and condoms. I've been told that if you're sick with cold/flu go to Thai Pharmacy and ask for Tiffy pills, it works and cheap!

[norice]

Indianmagicoil,

Have you or your girlfriends tried Tiffy Pills?

[indianmagicoil]

Hello Bro Norice! No I never tried nor any of my GFs. "Tiffy" pills sounds like some type of party drug!

[norice]

indianmagicoil,
No it's for cold and flu.

When I was there last friday night, the rain came about 8pm plus and didnt stop until 5am next morning. It was the same on Sat night too. Actually wanted to go RCA first before Hollywood. In the end skipped RCA and went directly to Hollywood. I caught the flu only when I touched down Singapore on Tuesday morning and was down for few days. Luckily did not fall ill when I was in BKK.
Thought could be the poor air circulation inside the Jetstar flight. Still prefer Tiger Airways.

Chanyboy,

WOW, great to hear from you, how's life? Too bad you can't go to Angeles City with me due to your current circumstances, I really missed partying with you and rest of the gang!

But life goes on so if you have change to visit BKK, just e-mail me and we can take a side trip to AC! Take care and save your money for early retirement!

Jackboy,

Your body's immune system was compromised due to excitement, lack of sleep and smoking! Also too much fooling around with girls, next time pace yourself! Ha ha ha ha ha

[Jackboy]

And also too much booze, Shabushi, MK, Aka, green curry, red curry chicken, bbq street stuff etc.

Like I said earlier, "if you want to retire and enjoy your stay in Bangkok, you must have enough money to cover your expenditure!" My monthly budget is approximately 2,000 - 2,500 US Dollars! I hope that's enough to cover rent, utilities, cable/internet, travel, food, medical/dental, spa/massage and night life!

I already made an Excel budget spreadsheet so I can monitor my daily, weekly and monthly expenses. After first quarter, I'll brief everyone, what's my actual expenses. My goal is to boom boom only 2 - 3 times a week!

Bro Norice, Good thread and good info on Bangkok living.
Did explore living in Bangkok before since cost of living is lower or about same as KL.
But decided against it cos extracurricular/ cheong/entertainment expenses will easily more than double the monthly budget I mean in Bangkok so many types and places to cheong so how to not cheong, hehe.

Yes yes, was shocked by the high fees. If it is only 150b that is OK but
if you take into account the fees for your own bank also, total fees is about 500 b.
Next time you do a with a withdrawal do balance enquiry. Then make the withdrawal and then check your balance enquiry again and you will find it is about 500b less. On a typical 4 to 6 days trip, will have to withdraw probably 3 to 4 times and that is 1500 to 2000 b enough for an ST. But still find it is more convenient than carrying foreign currency into Thailand
Just curious but what do you bros mostly do? Carry foreign cash in and then exchange at money changer or TT to tirak's acc and then get from her (which usually also includes some big commission fee for her ) ?

Always bring cash, and regulate. Avoid cashless means, which only mean spend more and pay more for the convenience. Also no sudden shock at the end of the month (payment time). best no tracks.

Air ticket paid, hotel pay on arrival, spend till no cash, vegetate in hotel and wait to go home.

TT to teerak's account? got to be mad!

I am giving myself another 2-3 yrs. If cant find a partner in SG or Malaysia. Can start to think to move to Bangkok or even Bali.

My last last hope... can try Bangkok girl for life parnter.

Can any bro tell me what "555+" mean. saw in few post and keep scratching my head.

O. i could be in BKK coming National day long weekend.

Just want to remind anyone who is looking for a partner in a foreign country, watch out for your money, for example when buying a property, buy a condo, as it can be own by foreigners, do not open joint a/c, but instead give her money every month, this is to protect your retirement fund and also, when you smell something fishy, you can cut her off straight. Why am I saying this? My brother lost a fortune as he bought properties in his Philippino's wife and now the marriage got sour, and many farang lost their entire retirement funds, as they buy houses, cars under wife's name, and also bank a/c, always remember that justice is not on your side in a foreign country.
