Just curious as to where current expats would move to if Thailand was too pricey to keep the current lifestyle they are used to. Or would you stay in Thailand at a lower level of living? I have many years before I can retire, but at one point Thailand was looking like a cheaper place than my current home country, now, not so sure, when factoring in medical etc.
This was brought on by something i read saying the pound is now about 45baht, down from 60baht a few years ago. I was also talking to a few Aussies on my trip to Thailand 2 years ago, who were bitching about how much prices had increased from 2009, these guys have been coming to Thailand since about 2000, but where now thinking of new places to holiday. For what its worth, they usually did 3, 2-3 week trips to Phuket every year. Maybe it is just Phuket that has seen these giant price increases, I dont know.
So where would your other country be, that would allow you to keep the same cost of living/lifestyle you are used to now?
