72-Year-Old Expat Living in Thailand - Cost of Living, Healthcare & Life Abroad || BILL PAIGE (E179)

🇹🇭 What is it really like to retire in Thailand?

In this episode of the Fruiting Body Podcast, Brendan sits down with Bill Paige, a retired music journalist from Chicago who spent decades interviewing some of the biggest names in music before making a life-changing move to Thailand.

After a successful career in the United States, Bill chose to retire in Hua Hin, Thailand, where he has built a simpler, more affordable, and more fulfilling lifestyle.

We explore what life is really like as an expat in Thailand, the benefits and challenges of retiring overseas, and why more retirees are choosing Thailand over countries like the United States, Canada, Australia, and the UK.

Throughout the conversation, Bill shares stories from his incredible career, his experiences adapting to life in Thailand, and his perspective on aging, healthcare, happiness, and financial freedom.
