FYI...Retirees need to secure a retirement visa (Non-Immigrant Visa O-A), meet specific financial criteria (monthly income or bank deposit), and potentially obtain health insurance. <br>Visa and Financial Requirements: <br>Age: Applicants must be at least 50 years old. <br>Visa: The most common visa for retirement is the Non-Immigrant Visa O-A. <br>Financial Requirements: One of the following must be met: <br>Bank Deposit: A deposit of at least 800,000 THB (approximately $23,430 USD) in a Thai bank account for at least two months prior to application. <br>Monthly Income: A monthly income of at least 65,000 THB (approximately $1,900 USD). <br>Combined: A combination of both the bank deposit and monthly income that totals at least 800,000 THB.

Hi Rob + Allie! My name is Randall, I live in Los Angeles and am a longtime viewer, first time commenter of your You Tube videos. I am 60+, gay, and my husband of over 40 years is disabled with a degenerative disease. I just wanted to thank the two of you for opening our eyes to the options that are out there for us. In particular, your video on the Sunshine International retirement community in Hua Hin was revelatory. Just knowing that there are places like this out there gives us hope. More content like this, please! Thank you again for all your good information and inspiration. Keep up the good work!

Thank you so much for this information. As a single, 55 year old, no children, no siblings, or cats, full time caregiver to my sweet mom, I worry about my own care one day. This is very comforting. <br>I joined both of your communities, but rarely get to jump in lately. In the bit that I have, I have learned so much.<br>Cannot overstate how much I appreciate you both and look forward to joining in a group trip one day.<br>Enjoy your adventures!🩷

OMG. What a difference this would have made for my mom when she was alive. 26 years in care facilities in the U.S. and all of them horrible. Thank you for bringing this up. I recently saw one of these in Mexico as well on GenMex channel. Loving all the options.

I took this very same tour 2 weeks ago and it was fantastic! I looked at a brand new 1 bedroom poolside apt. For $129,000 and I wanted to move in right away! All the residents were so nice and happy, no complaints from them about Sunshine! The grounds were so beautiful and Hua Hin is a retirement haven! The Thai people are so caring and willing to help you, too! 2 thumbs up from my perspective!😊

This was really eye opening and exciting. I have friends who are actually moving back to Thailand now they are retired. My mother is 82 and had me at 19 so this could be a good option for both of us! Her partner is 86 and won’t leave their home. She does not have a lot of cash but she will have her Social Security. So a place like this could bridge BOTH our needs for assisted care, especially when one (most likely me) dies and leaves the other alone. <br><br>Great information guys! Thank you so much and keep up the details! <br>Cheers, Michael Albuquerque NM USA

I work as a hospice chaplain and I can tell you that what you described doesn’t exist for normal Americans here in the US. Wow! 2 aides to help you for $1230 a month??? You can press a button and wait for an aide for 30 minutes or more in some places. Some places don’t have nurses 24/7. Very helpful video

#1 reason I'm moving to SE Asia next year at 69. Still healthy but I want to prepare for extreme old age. I like that I can move into these retirement resorts while still healthy and then add services as needed.

Hello from CA & many thanks 4 your videos! I lived in Asia, Japan, Singapore, Indonesia & Borneo when i was young & healthy and love it! Now older & sicker, all of this looks & sound great but please be able to enjoy & endure the heat & language barriers, especially in Thailand. Malaysia, Cambodia & Indonesia are my first choices if u can meet strict requirements 4 Malaysia, easiest in Cambodia & easier in Indonesia. But hey if one is willing to learn and adapt to the culture, go 4 it! Going thru the US healthcare system, feeling frustrated but love showing up at the emergency & get treated by board-certified doctors. Food is definitely better in Malaysian & Singaporean hospitals. Japan is on a different level. Try an extended stay in Asia. Find your community, see if you fit! 🏄♀ Best 2 go before u get really sick!
