FAQ

1. Why I use the word “expat”
In Thailand, foreigners are stamped “Non-Immigrant” in their passport. That means you must check in every 90 days, can’t work in jobs reserved for Thais, can’t own land, and can be deported (and banned for 5–10 years) if caught working without a permit. So while I’d love to call myself an immigrant, legally we’re not — hence the word expat.

2. What I do for a living
I run a health foods company here in Thailand and have a work permit that covers all YouTube activities. I’ve paid tax in Thailand for over 10 years — through my own companies (an English school and a jazz lounge), as well as during my career in the 5-star hotel industry (Anantara). And yes — I speak Thai.

3. Can foreigners own land in Thailand?
No. But a superficies agreement allows you to control the land for 30+ years, and houses here are relatively affordable (1–2 million THB). If you have children, owning a home is essential for their security. Still, it’s smart to keep around 80% of your net worth in high-performance assets (like BTC) outside Thailand.

4. About my wife
We’ve been together 12 years of my 15+ years in Thailand. She’s a finance graduate, hardworking, traditional, and loyal — she earned more and owned more property than me when we met, and she’s stood by me through both success and struggle.

5. Patreon & Memberships
All Patreon and channel membership income goes directly to supporting our Thai extended family — for food, school supplies, and household needs.

Thailand is one of the world’s most popular travel destinations—a place where modernity coexists with deep tradition; where beaches, skyscrapers and global cuisine define a postcard image. But beneath the surface, Thailand is confronting a long‑brewing economic crisis marked by slow growth, political instability, soaring inequality, demographic decline and a shrinking workforce.

Over the past decade, Thailand’s economy has slipped behind its Southeast Asian peers, struggling with weak GDP growth, declining foreign investment and an overreliance on tourism and low‑value manufacturing. While neighbors like Vietnam, Malaysia and Indonesia power ahead with new industries and rising exports, Thailand is battling what many economists see as a perfect storm of structural challenges. In this Bloomberg Originals Weekly Documentary, we break down what went wrong—and what it will take to fix it.

3:10 The 1997 Asia Crisis

FAQ

1. Why I use the word “expat”
In Thailand, foreigners are stamped “Non-Immigrant” in their passport. That means you must check in every 90 days, can’t work in jobs reserved for Thais, can’t own land, and can be deported (and banned for 5–10 years) if caught working without a permit. So while I’d love to call myself an immigrant, legally we’re not — hence the word expat.

2. What I do for a living
I run a health foods company here in Thailand and have a work permit that covers all YouTube activities. I’ve paid tax in Thailand for over 10 years — through my own companies (an English school and a jazz lounge), as well as during my career in the 5-star hotel industry (Anantara). And yes — I speak Thai.

3. Can foreigners own land in Thailand?
No. But a superficies agreement allows you to control the land for 30+ years, and houses here are relatively affordable (1–2 million THB). If you have children, owning a home is essential for their security. Still, it’s smart to keep around 80% of your net worth in high-performance assets (like BTC) outside Thailand.

4. About my wife
We’ve been together 12 years of my 15+ years in Thailand. She’s a finance graduate, hardworking, traditional, and loyal — she earned more and owned more property than me when we met, and she’s stood by me through both success and struggle.

5. Patreon & Memberships
All Patreon and channel membership income goes directly to supporting our Thai extended family — for food, school supplies, and household needs.
