buffalo_bill Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 Gentlemen , no , I am not going to send her money . Honestly . Would 20.000 be enough for a family of average 6 . House is complete . Occasional visit at the hospital for the old folks , no other major expenses except money for school and related expenses . And the regular fiesta when BuBi is there for inspection . I am working on a breathtaking concept and know this has been discussed a zillion of times but an update would be fine . Entire thanks , respectfully BuBi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rchapstick Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 AFAIK, 20K per month would be a lot for an Issan family. Most scrap by on 5k or less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimDidMeGood Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 Anyway many people live on that kind of money in Issan. If there's no housing cost, it's decent, modest but decent. Although 6 people is a lot, but one would think some of them can find some stuff to do to complement the 20k, or better, to make it fructify.

Flashermac Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 School teachers usually make around 10,000 a month and get by. Labourers are lucky to make 200 baht a day for hard work. Clerks at the 7-Elevens get around 6500 a month. Why couldn't a family get by on 20,000? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffalo_bill Posted June 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 Sir , there are ways to make it with 6000 a month but that also means standard treatment at the hospital ending up with a box of colouful pills and so forth , it is BASIC . How do you pay money for school from that , there are bills which require cash and not dried frogs from the "farm". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imperial Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 How old are the 6 people and how much do they drink and gamble ? Factory jobs are 6k-10k, and many get by on that with 2-3k rent, 20k seems decent , But how do you get them to think they earned it and then they might save some ? I think thats everyones problem , we want to help, BUT they also need to want to help themselves, I do not give money to beggers at home , but really try and help people that are working and trying to get by, Bo BuBi you have the magic answer ?
