All,
I really appreciate the input. Yeah, it's a very tough decision.
Cybernator .. to answer your questions ....
1. I am familiar with the visa requirements
2. The income will be fixed around $4k/month after taxes, not adjusted for inflation. However, in 10 years I'll have a pretty hefty 401k/pension that I can tap as well.
3. Not sure on this one ... was thinking of taking a 6 month leave of absence from work to make sure it is what I wanted. But if they won't give the LOA, I'm ready to quit.
4. Location - definitely Phuket/Patong area
5. I could pretty easily go back to my work anytime or work several months out of the year if needed.
So Tanman ... on that budget do you feel you're getting all the partying in you want ... or do you feel like your limited. Is it better being in Thailand full time and sticking to a budget than visiting 2 or 3 times a year and not really having a budget?
Once again, thanks for the advice.
