what is a salary (per month) you can live well on here?
in my opinion, assuming you have no other costs, 80,000 a month is a very decent wage here!
-18K = rent and power (good apt)
-2K = internet on phone/apt
-3K = mrt/bts/taxi
-15K = red wine (I drink like water)
-20K = general living
-20K = savings
any disputes?

As a baseline to work from consider the technical requirement to maintain a retirement visa, that being making bt65,000 a month, or maintaining bt800,000 for the year in the bank, as the financial requirement.
This is a comfortable living amount that also gives you the ability to afford a live-in girlfriend that doesn't have to work.

What about a pension plan or is that in the savings and dg is right I can spend 80 k in a few days of fun.
Temptation is everywhere in los but I recon you can loose interest if you live there and the internet with some work lots of pussy available.
Then theres the giks etc etc

atl, also make sure you're making 80,000 B after tax, otherwise you'll have to factor that in as well.

... for 'getting by', this might be okay if you are here on a limited engagement... I think THB 80,000 is thin for a longer run of it.
... amortizing an annual trip home for a couple of weeks for one (flight, car rental for some of that time, food a nd entertainment, gifts, etc.), factor in another THB 6,000+ per month.
... unless you are prepared to risk Thai public medicine, add something for medical, dental.
... a 3-day weekend upcountry, or nearby, maybe once every 2 or 3 months... say, THB 6-8,000 per trip for room, food, modest ground transportation... include another THB 2-3,000 per month... add to that if you fly anywhere, or include any heavy entertainment.
... I'd include a separate line item for food, since THB 20,000 in your General Living line item would really allow nothing for dining out.

atl, I have one dispute... there is no way you will be able to save 20K a month, on an 80,000/month salary.
