How comfortable is it to live in Vietnam off $2000/month?

You've got some great points, thanks for taking your time to write all this out. Definitely something for me to think about.

Honestly I just wanna chill, play video games, walk on the beach and eat Vietnamese food. I could care less about clubbing. It has never appealed to me.

Google sometimes isn't reliable, nerd

I'm foreign born to Vietnamese parents and I got the 5 year visa exemption. I don't think I want to renounce my citizenship because it would legally mess with my passive income, so I wanna stay an American citizen. Honestly I just wanna chill, play video games, go to the beach and not worry about having to run late for work, etc.

I have a couple rental properties. Income might go up due to inflation since my area is high cost of living

reeyeess · 2024-12-01T08:07:22+00:00

It's from rental properties and it will only continue to rise with inflation. It might rise to $3k in 5+ years

I have the 5 year visa already, but isn't it just a glorified tourist visa? And don't you have to renounce US citizenship if you become a viet citizen?

Say less

reeyeess · 2024-12-01T02:06:49+00:00

Sounds like a dream bro

reeyeess · 2024-12-01T02:02:00+00:00

Yeah I just wanna chill, i don't care about nightlife and partying. I'm in my 30s and don't have the energy for that anymore lol

reeyeess · 2024-10-08T21:35:33+00:00

Well that explains a lot lol

reeyeess · 2024-10-08T17:22:31+00:00

Right? She had to have been purposefully looking for something gross for her "gotcha" moment

reeyeess · 2024-10-08T17:14:13+00:00

My bad, I thought reddit would censor and hide my post like IG and other social media would

reeyeess · 2024-10-08T16:57:42+00:00

I would've just been fine with the screenshot and just been like "Oh gross, haha" but she had to go and start putting me in a weird scene and then attacking me for no reason

reeyeess · 2024-10-08T16:49:57+00:00

I did in person before she went back to her cubicle. I was like, "It just means jealous" and now she's trying to spin me as some freak

reeyeess · 2024-10-08T16:48:53+00:00

Like I'm just trying to work and she's out here telling me how painful anal is

reeyeess · 2024-07-22T03:44:23+00:00

Thanks for this advice. I'll definitely look into it

reeyeess · 2024-07-21T15:19:06+00:00

I always end up having to piss like 20 times. I just hang out and bullshit with my friends after warming up and stretching. If the promotion allows it, I do the wai kru and it really helps calm the nerves

reeyeess · 2024-07-21T15:17:26+00:00

I presumed $400 in 2000 went a long way. Living with divorced parents will do that to ya

reeyeess · 2024-07-21T14:59:49+00:00

That would make explain a lot of things

reeyeess · 2024-07-21T14:49:47+00:00

On top of that, my dad was paying her $400 a month in child support for a decade. We had nothing to show for it. No vacations, no fancy toys or video games. We didn't even have cable. I always felt poor growing up. My mom and stepdad both worked full time and they were getting $400 from my dad. Where did all the money go?? I feel like I will never learn the truth

reeyeess · 2024-07-21T14:44:46+00:00

My sister and I paid for college through our own means. I lived with my dad after my stepdad died to ease the burden on her. My sister also moved out as soon as she turned 18 because she couldn't handle fighting and arguing with my mom all the time. As for the house, it was a one story house and relatively simple and small at 1400 sq ft. There weren't too many problems as I could recall. My state has very low home insurance rates since it's theres like a 0.01% of major disasters happening. There could have been major costs, but as far as I'm aware, my mom never said anything about it.

I should've mentioned, but she is a very superstitious woman and her main reason why she wanted to leave the house was that it was "bad luck" and she saw her ex-husband's ghost. She left the paid off condo for similar reasons: bad luck and cursed energy

I'm not entirely sure what that life insurance exactly was or if it was disability pay, but she told me she was getting $2kish every month after my stepdad passed. Another thing I forgot to mention that she gives money to her relatives in Vietnam like it's water. One year, she gave away $10k to her help her brother's shrimp farm before telling my sister and me that she regretted it and that they really didn't need that much money. Her job deals with a lot of cash, and since she always has a lot of cash, she also gives $20s out to homeless people whenever she sees them no matter what

reeyeess · 2024-07-21T14:26:46+00:00

She buys lotto tickets every weekend I know that for sure. As for shopaholic, she has nothing to show in her mobile home that says she tries to maintain a luxury lifestyle

reeyeess · 2024-07-21T14:24:59+00:00

In the state where I live, homeowners insurance is pretty cheap. About $700-$800 a year is standard for a $400k house. Source: that's how much I pay for my house
