Thread: Farming Good or Bad Idea?

^^ It's nice to see someone put his hands up and confirm farming isn't as good as some make it out to be.

Why not set up a business to do what you do in UK. There is a lot of Offshore Oil work in Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore. Even a Machine/Welding Shop would likely be more successful than farming. There are few decent welders or machine shops anywhere in Thailand. A cousin of my Thai GF has a huge House Reno business c/w ferangs, because he is reliable and can do nearly anything house construction-wise. The local Backyard Mechanic does a rip roaring business ... mainly because he is the kind of intuitive mechanic that can fix/repair anything that moves. These entrepreneurs make a lot of cash money, because they can get the job done quickly.

Nice to meet you
