What happens when you decide to sell everything you own and move to Thailand, then wake up years and years later, to realize Thailand has lost it’s charm and you want to go home?
Having no where to go home to, maybe on a fixed income or no income, that will not allow you to return home?
Any location in the world can change drastically over 20+ years and Thailand is no exception.
It is easy to see how some people would long to return home.
Thailand is a super spot for a holiday.
However, when you live here for years, it can get boring the same as any other location.
You can really start to over think that maybe life in your own country would be better.
Married life is married life in any country.
The same routine year in and year out.
Sooner or later you have seen and done it all.
Maybe you are missing the comradery, family, or other things you have missed over the years?
Whatever it is, many expats have financially trapped themselves in Thailand.
For a high percentage, they will never be going back.
Expats have to understand how just wanting to move to Thailand right now, but how will they feel in 20 years? Can they make Thailand a forever home?
Can they survive financially with no stress or worries?
There are lots of benefits to moving to Thailand. However, many of those are short term and once you settle in for a few years, the shine wears off.
Before you move, be prepared to ask yourself if you can live in Thailand and be happy the rest of your life?
