InMyShadow Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 i know a girl (just someone i know and not a working girl) she pays 3,500 and the rooms a decent size. the buildings very clean and secure but shared bathrooms but everyones very clean there. no aircon though but actually it's a perfectly nice place really. just can't play music or anything really as they have those windows that are in the corridor. but if you need cheap, it's availableSounds like a gig for a couple of back packers . Who may want 6 months and not share with 8 other people A grown western adult , shared bathroom and no air in humid stinking hot BKK? How could you know everyone is clean? Have you seen how thais trash thailand.. Doubt they will be wiping after themselvesGreat for thais but pointless in the context of this thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khun Jean Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Ranks 62nd among the cheapest places from the 80 places 'studied'. The title should be ' Bangkok among the 20 most expensive places' from the 80 cheapest places 'studied'. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been bursting for 20 years according to the bar stool analysts. Every building is 90 % empty and only sell at 50% loss untill people just give them away. Most building are leaning over or falling down and bangkok will be under the sea next year.. Bahahahaha Truth is most expats here are totall losers pissed there money away over a life time. Not all but most. 8k fan room.. So sad The only losers are those that could have bought 15 years ago and now have NO CHANCE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that would be 10 mins on a Mototaxi. You can't even get that deal in Pattaya unless your on the wrong side of Sukhumvit..the far side of the dark side People are so gullible! Since you seem to have an attitude, so will I. No one as sure as the ignorant. Not old, not moldy. 7 minute walk up to main road. A couple of shots from before we moved in. It's 7 floors, pool in courtyard. Quiet soi, lots of trees in neighborhood. People are so cock sure of things they have no knowledge... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khun Jean Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 People who don't know don't know that they don't know. A problem that can not be fixed, even with proof.

chubby Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 no point argu'ing too bad TV doesn't post URLs for references, sigh https://www.nestpick.com/furnished-apartments-rent-index/ Mark Twain poignantly remarked that "statistics" are the worse type of lies ; lately people can't even agree what "news" is anymore, much less valid science and it's interpretation, I blame media consolidation and the evangelicals ?

Wake Up Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Luckily my job paid my expense to travel and work in USA, Europe and Asia. If anyone thinks Bangkok is an expensive city to live in then I feel for them. Yes other Thailand cities are cheaper but I cannot tell you one big city outside of India that is cheaper. I know some may exist but the point is from a world viewpoint Bangkok is a bargain for rent, entertainment, insurance, paid medical care, utilities and food if you eat Asian food and fruits and vegetables.

BKK ranked a lowly 62nd out of 80 in-demand cities in terms of initial costs. So there are 61 other cities cheaper to move to. At least that's the way I read this feature. But one can never be sure about anything in Bangkok newspaper reports. It's the opposite. It is a listing from the most expensive down to the cheapest. The cheapest is Cairo, #80. So Bangkok is the 19th cheapest out of the 80 cities listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
