Um one of the you may want to ask. Um one of the you may want to ask. Um one of the questions was why didn't you mention questions was why didn't you mention questions was why didn't you mention Bali or Bali as a single man? Um, so, so Bali or Bali as a single man? Um, so, so Bali or Bali as a single man? Um, so, so Bali, as you may remember from about Bali, as you may remember from about Bali, as you may remember from about three years ago, was my one of my three years ago, was my one of my three years ago, was my one of my favorites and still is, frankly. favorites and still is, frankly. favorites and still is, frankly. >> Um, but Bali is a big island and I I >> Um, but Bali is a big island and I I >> Um, but Bali is a big island and I I limit limit limit where I think that I love in Bali, which where I think that I love in Bali, which where I think that I love in Bali, which is Ubud. It's up in the mountains and I is Ubud. It's up in the mountains and I is Ubud. It's up in the mountains and I love that place for two reasons. One is love that place for two reasons. One is love that place for two reasons. One is it's a little cooler, which is nice. And it's a little cooler, which is nice. And it's a little cooler, which is nice. And the other reason um, is because it's the other reason um, is because it's the other reason um, is because it's totally walkable in the center part of totally walkable in the center part of totally walkable in the center part of the city. They have these streets that the city. They have these streets that the city.

I left the US when I was 46 in the US. I left the US when I was 46 in the US. I left the US when I was 46 and during my working years I would get and during my working years I would get and during my working years I would get in my car and I would wake it's almost in my car and I would wake it's almost in my car and I would wake it's almost like I completely went blank about what like I completely went blank about what like I completely went blank about what was happening around me while I drove to was happening around me while I drove to was happening around me while I drove to work and then suddenly I was in the work and then suddenly I was in the work and then suddenly I was in the garage at my work and I would wake up garage at my work and I would wake up garage at my work and I would wake up and have to go get to get on the and have to go get to get on the and have to go get to get on the elevator or sometimes get all the way to elevator or sometimes get all the way to elevator or sometimes get all the way to my desk before I realized what was my desk before I realized what was my desk before I realized what was happening. And so sometimes in our life happening. And so sometimes in our life happening. And so sometimes in our life we get into these routines that we get into these routines that we get into these routines that everything's the same. It's always the everything's the same. It's always the everything's the same. It's always the same. And so we start thinking about a

  21. same. And so we start thinking about a same. And so we start thinking about a problem we have or we think about um problem we have or we think about um problem we have or we think about um something else whether it's something else whether it's something else whether it's relationships or budgets or whatever. relationships or budgets or whatever. relationships or budgets or whatever. And so we spend a lot of our time during And so we spend a lot of our time during And so we spend a lot of our time during the day in our mind [clears throat] the day in our mind [clears throat] the day in our mind [clears throat] thinking about things and we're not thinking about things and we're not thinking about things and we're not really aware of what's going on around really aware of what's going on around really aware of what's going on around us. And what I found out when I went us. And what I found out when I went us. And what I found out when I went overseas, partly why I call it Vagabon overseas, partly why I call it Vagabon overseas, partly why I call it Vagabon Awake, my channel, is it kind of wakes Awake, my channel, is it kind of wakes Awake, my channel, is it kind of wakes you up because nothing is is nothing is you up because nothing is is nothing is you up because nothing is is nothing is a repeat. Everything's new. Um, and a repeat. Everything's new. Um, and a repeat. Everything's new. Um, and certainly that lasts for the first year certainly that lasts for the first year certainly that lasts for the first year or two when you move overseas. Um, and or two when you move overseas. Um, and or two when you move overseas. Um, and it's kind of addictive honestly. I mean, it's kind of addictive honestly. I mean, it's kind of addictive honestly.

  22. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> Um, someone asked about the 25k visa in >> Um, someone asked about the 25k visa in >> Um, someone asked about the 25k visa in in Thailand. in Thailand. in Thailand. >> So So >> So So >> So So there's lots of agents to do various there's lots of agents to do various there's lots of agents to do various creative things, creative things, creative things, >> which I don't necessarily, in fact, I >> which I don't necessarily, in fact, I >> which I don't necessarily, in fact, I don't recommend you use creative agents don't recommend you use creative agents don't recommend you use creative agents for sort of things. I like to just I for sort of things. I like to just I for sort of things. I like to just I recommend using just straight up follow recommend using just straight up follow recommend using just straight up follow the rules when you get a visa. Um the rules when you get a visa. Um the rules when you get a visa. Um because if an agent's overly creative because if an agent's overly creative because if an agent's overly creative and and the government finds out about and and the government finds out about and and the government finds out about it, then they'll start looking closely it, then they'll start looking closely it, then they'll start looking closely at all the people who got a visa through at all the people who got a visa through at all the people who got a visa through that agent. So what I recommend doing is that agent. So what I recommend doing is that agent. So what I recommend doing is you either get the $2,000 a month you either get the $2,000 a month you either get the $2,000 a month pension visa pension visa pension visa >> and it's really 65,000 B if they show. >> and it's really 65,000 B if they show. >> and it's really 65,000 B if they show. So if you have a $2,000 a month pension So if you have a $2,000 a month pension So if you have a $2,000 a month pension >> or you have 2,000 you can put in a Thai >> or you have 2,000 you can put in a Thai >> or you have 2,000 you can put in a Thai bank, either not both, you can get a bank, either not both, you can get a bank, either not both, you can get a Thai visa. And of course, there's other Thai visa. And of course, there's other Thai visa. And of course, there's other paperwork and stuff you have to do, but paperwork and stuff you have to do, but paperwork and stuff you have to do, but it's the money part that most people it's the money part that most people it's the money part that most people stumble on. The other stuff's pretty stumble on. The other stuff's pretty stumble on. The other stuff's pretty easy to do. And the other thing is if easy to do. And the other thing is if easy to do. And the other thing is if you do the 25,000 US in a Thai bank, you you do the 25,000 US in a Thai bank, you you do the 25,000 US in a Thai bank, you don't have to prove that you have health don't have to prove that you have health don't have to prove that you have health insurance, which as people get older, insurance, which as people get older, insurance, which as people get older, it's harder to buy health insurance when it's harder to buy health insurance when it's harder to buy health insurance when you're overseas. Um, and so those are you're overseas. Um, and so those are you're overseas. Um, and so those are kind of your two options. Then someone kind of your two options. Then someone kind of your two options. Then someone asked, do you have to leave that 25,000 asked, do you have to leave that 25,000 asked, do you have to leave that 25,000 in the bank the whole year? Uh well th in the bank the whole year? Uh well th in the bank the whole year?

You have to put that renew your visa. You have to put that renew your visa. You have to put that money back in the bank. But personally, money back in the bank.
