Don't Move to Thailand in 2026... Watch This First

Thinking about moving to Thailand in 2026? Stop. The game has changed.

Thailand isn't the same country it was five years ago. The rules have tightened, the "cheap" lifestyle is a myth for most, and the days of winging it on a tourist visa are fading fast. If you are planning to quit your job, sell your stuff, and move to Bangkok or Pattaya thinking it will solve all your problems—you are walking into a trap.

In this video, I’m giving you the hard truth about what it actually takes to survive (and thrive) here in 2026. No sugar-coating, no "paradise" fluff. Just the reality of visas, money, dating, and the mindset you need to make it work.

In this video, we cover:

The Visa Crackdown: Why immigration is asking more questions and why the "border run" lifestyle is dying.

The "Cheap" Myth: The real cost of living when you factor in rent creep, dating, and convenience addiction.

The Dating Trap: Why getting attention isn't the same as finding a partner, and how loneliness drives expensive mistakes.

The Expat Reality: Why Thailand amplifies your problems instead of fixing them.
