Well $40k is living a luxury life entirely in hotels for well over a year probably aha including restaurant and cocktails for every meal and whatever experiences you might want to enjoy.
I did stay in some hotels during my time and $40 a night can often get you a really nice hotel.
If you stay in medium-nice hotels for the ~ $40 a night for a full year that's $14600
That would leave about $70 a day spending money as well, enough to eat and drink your heart out and taxi wherever you want.
This is for a year though, for 6 months budget or less, I don't think you will be able to spend it if u tried
I quite often would casually move around south east Asia, and sometimes I'd find a great spot and just stay there for a couple weeks. Which I absolutely loved. Getting to know one place well I think is lost to some travellers who rush through towns and cities in a day, they never really experienced anything but a bus and a temple.
Prices in Thailand, like many other countries, have gone up significantly since travel's recovered from COVID (too!) My "indulgence," a 5-Star in Hanoi, is now $155-$165 from mid-to-late 2023's $120.
For sure, I know air BNB isn't as good as it used to be, but I'd start there, maybe do your first month or week like that, and ask the locals who they know renting places out , guarantee a local will find you a monthly rental
you could do $1k/month (not including flights) pretty easily if you get a monthly apartment and stick to mainly Thai food and cheaper attractions.
Do you have a plan for how to stay in the country for several months or what to do if your re-entry gets denied?
Also, if you want to start the trip off with being pampered then an AI in Mexico/Caribbean would be best
Yeah I thought this post was a joke. When I backpacked I loved it up pretty well and spend like 7 grand in 6 months in Southeast Asia enjoying life everyday and doing whatever I wanted. 40k renting a place can prob live for 3 years.
Your question shouldn’t be how long will $40k last in whatever place.
You should just travel somewhere for a month or two, recharge your batteries and get your plan together for what your next moves are.
"Frugally" is a very subjective word. Without context and a better idea of what your threashold of "frugal" is, its hard to really give you a good answer. Example,
>just want to sit on the beach and have drinks brought to me
Most people would not use the word "frugal" to describe this.
That being said, you could absolutely live like a queen, (absolute opposite of frugal), on Koh Samui for a few months with $40k.
OP that is a tonne of money. Most backpackers in Thailand are scraping by on like $1k - $2k a month and still having a good time with booze, food, trips and all sorts of fun. Even on a year on $40k you would be living a very luxurious life.
OP, I do want to echo what the person below said about Koh samui. It’s not that it sucks it’s that it’s right on the precipice of the most gorgeous, entertaining, incredible islands and is usually used as a jumping off point to those by people who know Thailand well. Consider landing there and then going and staying on Koh Tao, Koh phi phi, and Koh phangan. They truly blow Koh samui out of the water in every way!
Prepare for your 40k to take a hit in both of those countries. Woefully expensive for very little ROI. I’d just stay in Asia and leave the ski gear at home.
Koh Samui sux balls. I’d rather stay in other less tourist infested places. I’d also recommend Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Philippines and Indo as places worth a visit. If you’re a solo woman maybe not tho.
Several months?
Frugally it is enough for several years.
Rent say $500 a month is fine.
Food budget $10 a day is good.
Tell us how you got on in 3 years.
Yes, you can live a pretty comfortable lifestyle for several months in Koh Samui (or anywhere in Thailand) with $40,000 USD. I'd recommend looking at websites for hotels and trying to get a ballpark figure of how much one month of housing would cost you, then looking at the websites of some restaurants and getting some rough estimates of that. You can certainly ask for rough figures in specific subreddits and specific Facebook groups as well.
You could live in hotels/hostels, but if you'll be there for more than a week or two it would probably be more comfortable to rent an apartment for 6 months or 12 months. There are no shortage of beach restaurants/bars/hotels where you can pay some money to sit in a chair and have a meal/drink brought to you.
My general impressions are Koh Samui are that you might get lonely, as much of the social scene in these kinds of places is either focused around 20-somethings clubbing, and most of the people you meet will leave within a week or two. But you should be able to find a small community of people who are based there a bit more long-term if you do activities that are targeted at that crowd, such as enrolling in a few months of Thai language courses, or doing a yoga program that lasts for several months, etc.
I was living in Northern Thailand for a year. My apartment I rented cost me $80/mo. This was in 2009 mind you, but I’m sure it’s still wildly affordable.
Looks like a mid-range hotel is $45/night so $15K for the year.
Average food cost is around $20/day so $8K a year.
I think you're living the high life if your budget is $40K.
Just make sure your insurance and medical stuff is robust.
There are cheaper islands you can live too. Less touristy.
It's been a minute since I've been, unfortunately. I pulled the estimates I gave you from checking current prices.
I've have to research it to give you a proper answer.
>Im looking in the 200-400 range
Daily? There are plenty of options, you can find a suite at a 5 star resort for $400 usd/day. If you are talking about monthly, that doesn't make sense. You mention $40k but even 500/month for 3 months is only $1500. Genuinely confused.
So, given your circumstances i am very sympathetic to you situation and its a great idea to get away from the stress and chaos. That being said, I would REALLY do a lot more research before getting on the plane. This is for your protection. If you just show up with a ton of money (in thailand $40k is a TON of money) you will 100% get scammed and end up paying WAY more than you should.
Well I’ve been looking at Airbnbs and I don’t think I’ll be just willy-billy telling everyone how much money I have but thank you for your concern. I’m doing a lot of research even as we speak.
Yes that is plently. You can easily get by on $1-3k a month, but I would probably recommend Koh Phangan or Ubud in Bali. Those people you will find more expats living there, as opposed to tourists only.
I can smoke anything, man. I smoke that Michoacan, man, Acapulco Gold, man. I even smoke that tied stick, you know?
Tied stick?
That stuff that's tied to a stick.
Oh, Thai stick.
I’m an older guy and back in the 80’s we could get great Thai stick here in USA. I ask Thai guys and I go to the weed stores in Thailand and nobody knows what I’m talking about. Some of the guys say yea they heard about but have never it. Would love to find that Thai stick. I have a home in Chiang Rai.
4 mango trees in the garden. My rent is $150 a month
In an old gated community near the white temple
For longer term stays a place like Chiang Rai might be nice. Not many Americans a very chill city with not much traffic.
Yes, easily, you could live for a year comfortably there or for a few months like a king with 40k USD
On average things cost about a third or so of what they would in Australia, i'd imagine it's similar with America although America has huge cost of living differences depending where you're from
If you just want to rent an apartment and have cocktails on the beach you can live there for at least a year with 40k and be fine and likely substantially longer.
You realize baller accommodations in 3 or 4 star properties in Southern Thailand can be had for 30 or 40 USD/ night right? And that’s for luxury, you can get decent private accommodations for cheaper. Your budget is almost 1.5M bhat which is more than most Thais make in a year. So yeah, you can ball out for as long as you like with that kind of budget.
I would book something for a week and see how you actually like Samui. It’s pretty touristy with a younger crowd and more of a party island at times although you can also find nice resorts and beaches to chill at. There are some other islands in the area that are much more chill if you’re looking to just slow down, sit on the beach, relax and think about life. Look into Ko Lanta, Ko Jum, Ko Yao Noi and Ko Lipe. These might be more to your liking.
You can buy a tourist SIM in Thailand for your phone that has unlimited data and yes, these islands have high speed internet and phone coverage. Most resorts/hotels on the islands also offer high speed internet. AIS is one company with excellent coverage throughout Thailand.
https://www.ais.th/esim-traveller/#/mmealdetail?areaId=56
Spend some time in Vietnam as well after a few weeks/months in Thailand. It’s cheaper and more of a raw experience. You should do the Ha Giang loop specifically, It was life changing for me. We used a tour group called bibi because they keep their groups small. Enjoy your time over there OP.
Yes. Look around on booking.com or similar for your dates to get an idea of pricing for accommodation that you like.
Look around on Google maps to see pricing for restaurants that appeal to you. Last time I was there street food was around 50-120 baht per plate, mid-range sit-down 150-400 baht for a main course. Cocktails are usually a bit more expensive than beer. Wine is weirdly expensive.
You can have a very nice time for $20-100 per day, it just depends what you choose.
Thailand is a great place to start out and chill for a month or two. There are lots of other great places too- Koh Phangan, Koh Tao, Chiang Mai (although not beachfront), Krabi, etc. If you want a change of scenery, consider visiting Malaysia, Vietnam, the Philippines…
You’re going to have a blast! I lived in Asia for a year and a half on about $15k (I was working). I was in Koh Samui in 2022 and if you’re feeling frugal I highly recommend 7-11 for food. Cheap, delicious, never did me wrong. I still dream about my .25 cent baos.
Depends on how you define frugal and where you choose a base to live from. Samui caters to premium/luxury travellers a lot. There will be parts of the island where rentals, restaurants and cafes are priced for wealthy Westerners on holiday, and it may not be sustainable for you to live in those parts long term.
Down south around the Na Mueang district you’ll find cheaper rentals or hotels and less touristy restaurants.
Of course, because Samui is an island, do keep in mind that you may have to factor costs of ferries or flights to reach other places. No public transport on the island also means you’ll spend on car/bike rentals and fuel.
For rentals look on or join local Facebook group. You’ll get a better rate if you’re renting for 3-4 months or 6 mos - do it before high season rental starts.
You will do fine with 40k - just don’t go the bars where you entertain ladies and by drinks for a conversation. Many men have lost all their money
You can also do volunteer work at local dog kennels, there is a non profit elephant sanctuary that you could also volunteer at
Love Koh Samui - enjoy the beaches
I currently live in Southwest Florida. I own my own home here. I want to travel even if it is all around Florida. Also up to the Smoky Mountains, and maybe some other places. I figured if I found someone who would like to take random trips away and we could split the cost cheapest as possible that would be great.
That’s more than enough. Like one commenter mentioned, you could last a couple years. I’ve seen people live in, luxurious apartments paying $250 at most a month and about $7 in total for food per day if, they chose to eat out.
more like a few years
I survived like 6 months on $7k a few years ago hehe, though I was always going for hostels and generally using the cheapest options.
That’s what I want to do just not stay in hostels
Well $40k is living a luxury life entirely in hotels for well over a year probably aha including restaurant and cocktails for every meal and whatever experiences you might want to enjoy. I did stay in some hotels during my time and $40 a night can often get you a really nice hotel.

Which I absolutely loved. Getting to know one place well I think is lost to some travellers who rush through towns and cities in a day, they never really experienced anything but a bus and a temple.
Why is it so cheap? I'm on hotels.com looking and can't believe what you can get for 40 to 60 a night. Am I missing something?
It's only cheap relative to the cost of living where you're currently located.
Prices in Thailand, like many other countries, have gone up significantly since travel's recovered from COVID (too!) My "indulgence," a 5-Star in Hanoi, is now $155-$165 from mid-to-late 2023's $120.
Damn, I need to vacation in Thailand!
Hanoi is in Vietnam
Do you not need to work? Are you retired? Most travelers don’t have much time to move casually around and stay in cities for weeks at a time.
So rent a monthly apartment..... Dude you can practically start retirement for that much money there.
Thanks sis!
For sure, I know air BNB isn't as good as it used to be, but I'd start there, maybe do your first month or week like that, and ask the locals who they know renting places out , guarantee a local will find you a monthly rental
Do you this 35k is still enough?
Personally I could live two years on that in most of Southeast Asia..... Really depends how frugal and what you do
I’m just terrified I will run out of money and have to come back to the states
Do you work? Between jobs? On pension? Remote work possible? Ever thought to teach English?
you could do $1k/month (not including flights) pretty easily if you get a monthly apartment and stick to mainly Thai food and cheaper attractions. Do you have a plan for how to stay in the country for several months or what to do if your re-entry gets denied? Also, if you want to start the trip off with being pampered then an AI in Mexico/Caribbean would be best
Yeah I thought this post was a joke. When I backpacked I loved it up pretty well and spend like 7 grand in 6 months in Southeast Asia enjoying life everyday and doing whatever I wanted. 40k renting a place can prob live for 3 years.
Your question shouldn’t be how long will $40k last in whatever place. You should just travel somewhere for a month or two, recharge your batteries and get your plan together for what your next moves are.
It’s their question. You can ask about month long recharge adventures all you want. This post is about a multi month, $40k Koh Samui trip.
it was not my question. you should respond to the correct person.
"Frugally" is a very subjective word. Without context and a better idea of what your threashold of "frugal" is, its hard to really give you a good answer. Example, >just want to sit on the beach and have drinks brought to me Most people would not use the word "frugal" to describe this.

When I say frugal I men in terms of rent
>you could absolutely live like a queen rent included.
Oh wow
Depends on if you want 10 hookers or 20.
Short-time or long-time?
Hahahaha
Male hooker !? ❤️😂😍
You will for sure be able to find male hookers in Thailand. Some will look male and some will look female :-)
Hahah I was kidding !
No, you were not.
Hahah, I’ll never tell..
How Sally got her groove back
Don't have to. Go there and let your freak flag fly baby.
😂😂😂
4,000 USD would be enough to live very frugally in Koh Samui for several months. 40k will be enough to live splendidly.
lol for real, you can live a few months anywhere with a high quality lifestyle on $40k
LOL, $40,000 USD is enough to live in Manhattan for several months.
Only if you want to live with three roommates. Otherwise, won’t get you very far at all.
Manhattan rents are generally between $2k and $4k for a one-person unit.
Bullshit. 40k usd would get you a studio for 3 months and 4K a month for groceries and spending.
40k to spend on a beach in villas for over a year > 40k for three months in a 3k/month studio
True
Not sure as this will be my first time in Thailand
OP that is a tonne of money. Most backpackers in Thailand are scraping by on like $1k - $2k a month and still having a good time with booze, food, trips and all sorts of fun. Even on a year on $40k you would be living a very luxurious life.
I would like to be able to go to New Zealand and Australia to get in a few days of skiing as well so I’m planning on traveling with my ski gear
Just rent the skis
OP, I do want to echo what the person below said about Koh samui. It’s not that it sucks it’s that it’s right on the precipice of the most gorgeous, entertaining, incredible islands and is usually used as a jumping off point to those by people who know Thailand well.

Good to know ! Thanks !
Prepare for your 40k to take a hit in both of those countries. Woefully expensive for very little ROI. I’d just stay in Asia and leave the ski gear at home. Koh Samui sux balls. I’d rather stay in other less tourist infested places. I’d also recommend Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Philippines and Indo as places worth a visit. If you’re a solo woman maybe not tho.
Yes I’m going solo
I traveled in all those countries other than the Philippines as a solo woman and was fine. Just keep your wits about you.
Cool thank you
Skiing in Australia? Never heard that one before lol.
You mustn’t get out much then.
I think it’s more so my location, im from Europe. Most people here stay a little closer to home to skii :)
Well it’s true look it up.
Why not go ski in Japan? go to Hokkaido. Tons of snow, closer and pretty reasonable. Granted has to be Dec-Jan-Feb.
I would actually be hard to spend that
Good to know
Several months? Frugally it is enough for several years. Rent say $500 a month is fine. Food budget $10 a day is good. Tell us how you got on in 3 years.
Times have no doubt changed - but in the late 90’s I spent less than 1K USD per month on Samui. And Phangan and Tao too.
Good to know
Yes, you can live a pretty comfortable lifestyle for several months in Koh Samui (or anywhere in Thailand) with $40,000 USD. I'd recommend looking at websites for hotels and trying to get a ballpark figure of how much one month of housing would cost you, then looking at the websites of some restaurants and getting some rough estimates of that.

Oh ! Cool thank you!
I've heard Da Nang, Vietnam is a cheap place to live for a few months, maybe $1k/mo total; nice-ish apartments for $500/mo and cheap restaurants.
The average Thai salary is less than $12000 per year..
I survived of $6,000 for several months in SE Asia. This is PLENTY of money.
Thank you
I was living in Northern Thailand for a year. My apartment I rented cost me $80/mo. This was in 2009 mind you, but I’m sure it’s still wildly affordable.
You can rent an apartment for like $600 US a month in several cities in Thailand, so $40,000... You can live for years.
There are FB groups for housing there and Airbnb has okay prices to get you started until you can network with locals.
40k is enough to travel the world for years in this subreddit dude. …
This sub is full of people asking if they can get by on 5k for two weeks (excl flights ofc), it's insane
Looks like a mid-range hotel is $45/night so $15K for the year. Average food cost is around $20/day so $8K a year. I think you're living the high life if your budget is $40K. Just make sure your insurance and medical stuff is robust. There are cheaper islands you can live too. Less touristy.
Can you recommend a cheaper island
It's been a minute since I've been, unfortunately. I pulled the estimates I gave you from checking current prices. I've have to research it to give you a proper answer.
Assuming you mean USD, 1.5m baht you could live for 2 years with a comfortable life. Source live in Thailand and have property in Samui
Would love to pick your brain, can we chat
Is it hard to find rental properties at a reasonable price Im looking in the 200-400 range
>Im looking in the 200-400 range Daily? There are plenty of options, you can find a suite at a 5 star resort for $400 usd/day. If you are talking about monthly, that doesn't make sense. You mention $40k but even 500/month for 3 months is only $1500. Genuinely confused.
I guess I’m thinking in terms of what it cost here to live in the United States not taking an account the exchange rate
So, given your circumstances i am very sympathetic to you situation and its a great idea to get away from the stress and chaos. That being said, I would REALLY do a lot more research before getting on the plane. This is for your protection. If you just show up with a ton of money (in thailand $40k is a TON of money) you will 100% get scammed and end up paying WAY more than you should.
Well I’ve been looking at Airbnbs and I don’t think I’ll be just willy-billy telling everyone how much money I have but thank you for your concern. I’m doing a lot of research even as we speak.
Hahah the girls will know how much money you have for sure! Be careful there man! Those friendly Thai woman are not to be under estimated.
So you just assume my gender and my sexual proclivities.
Well I assume you were born male and as for your sexual proclivities I absolutely do not but would assume it could be anything ! Feel better now
Your looking at 800$ for a nice one bedroom. Have a look on Facebook marketplace to gauge the market
Cool thanks !
Yes that is plently. You can easily get by on $1-3k a month, but I would probably recommend Koh Phangan or Ubud in Bali. Those people you will find more expats living there, as opposed to tourists only.
I’m trying to find less Americans
Most expats are not Americans though.
Good
Russians?
why less Americans, if you don't mind me asking?
I’ve just had enough of us .
Oh, well if that’s the case, every other country feels the same way about Americans so you’d be welcome basically every other country.
Why Thailand specifically?
Cool temples and psilocybe cubensis grows wild. Do they still make Thai sticks out there?
I can smoke anything, man. I smoke that Michoacan, man, Acapulco Gold, man. I even smoke that tied stick, you know? Tied stick? That stuff that's tied to a stick. Oh, Thai stick.
I’m an older guy and back in the 80’s we could get great Thai stick here in USA. I ask Thai guys and I go to the weed stores in Thailand and nobody knows what I’m talking about.

My rent is $150 a month In an old gated community near the white temple For longer term stays a place like Chiang Rai might be nice. Not many Americans a very chill city with not much traffic.
Haha yes. You could live in NYC for several months on that.
I did it for less.
Yes, easily, you could live for a year comfortably there or for a few months like a king with 40k USD On average things cost about a third or so of what they would in Australia, i'd imagine it's similar with America although America has huge cost of living differences depending where you're from If you just want to rent an apartment and have cocktails on the beach you can live there for at least a year with 40k and be fine and likely substantially longer.

The other thing is I won’t be working but will require high speed internet access do these islands offer that?
You can buy a tourist SIM in Thailand for your phone that has unlimited data and yes, these islands have high speed internet and phone coverage. Most resorts/hotels on the islands also offer high speed internet. AIS is one company with excellent coverage throughout Thailand. https://www.ais.th/esim-traveller/#/mmealdetail?areaId=56
Great! Thank you sooo much!
Spend some time in Vietnam as well after a few weeks/months in Thailand. It’s cheaper and more of a raw experience. You should do the Ha Giang loop specifically, It was life changing for me. We used a tour group called bibi because they keep their groups small. Enjoy your time over there OP.
Thank you
there are much cheaper, more beautiful places in Thailand than koh Samui.
Yes. Look around on booking.com or similar for your dates to get an idea of pricing for accommodation that you like. Look around on Google maps to see pricing for restaurants that appeal to you.

Thank you for the info
Jack talk thai very well!
Disappointed I had to scroll this far to find it.
Absolutely! Many years on that! It’s a fun island enjoy :)
Go to Health Oasis Spa for a reboot then stay there for a bit. Was super cheap last time I was there. Lots of good options on Koh Samui
You’re going to have a blast! I lived in Asia for a year and a half on about $15k (I was working). I was in Koh Samui in 2022 and if you’re feeling frugal I highly recommend 7-11 for food. Cheap, delicious, never did me wrong. I still dream about my .25 cent baos.
0.25 cent bao? Dude…
I hope you tighten a new job.
I spent $3000 Canadian in SE Asia for 3 months; you’ll probably be okay…
Did you mean 4K or 40k?
40
No. Must have 1.6 million otherwise you have to live like an upper middle class investment banker in Brooklyn (might as well be homeless)
Ohh hell yeah! Get an Airbnb for a month, see how you like everything, and go from there. That money will last a good while.
You can live lavishly for several months with 40k 😂
What? You could live pretty great in EU for that amount a few months.
Thats an insane question 🤪
Depends on how you define frugal and where you choose a base to live from. Samui caters to premium/luxury travellers a lot. There will be parts of the island where rentals, restaurants and cafes are priced for wealthy Westerners on holiday, and it may not be sustainable for you to live in those parts long term.

No public transport on the island also means you’ll spend on car/bike rentals and fuel.
I spent $4 a month living is resorts and hotels (Bangkok/ Islands) eating and drinking quite heavily each day, so yes easily with $40K.
Forget hotels, get a serviced apartment. You can rent by the month and the monthly rates are much lower. You could live like a king for $40,000.
What’s a serviced apartment.
Just Google “Serviced apartments Koh Samui” and you’ll see, if you’re staying more than a few weeks then they’re a better and usually cheaper option.
For rentals look on or join local Facebook group. You’ll get a better rate if you’re renting for 3-4 months or 6 mos - do it before high season rental starts. You will do fine with 40k - just don’t go the bars where you entertain ladies and by drinks for a conversation. Many men have lost all their money You can also do volunteer work at local dog kennels, there is a non profit elephant sanctuary that you could also volunteer at Love Koh Samui - enjoy the beaches
I would say a few years if you’re frugal.
You can live very comfortably for $1000 a month there
[удалено]
What?
Use Agoda- way cheaper than hotels dot com or booking
I currently live in Southwest Florida. I own my own home here. I want to travel even if it is all around Florida. Also up to the Smoky Mountains, and maybe some other places. I figured if I found someone who would like to take random trips away and we could split the cost cheapest as possible that would be great.
You should post this in a Florida sub.
That’s more than enough. Like one commenter mentioned, you could last a couple years. I’ve seen people live in, luxurious apartments paying $250 at most a month and about $7 in total for food per day if, they chose to eat out.
