Has/does anyone here live in Thailand or has stayed there for an extended ammount of time?

What do you think of it?

I am currently contemplating going there and working for a short time before I decide whether to return to Japan or go elsewhere (there are some complicated issues to be resolved first). I posted a thread like this asking about Japan before going there and got some good responses, thats why I'm posting this.

It seems to me like Thailand is pretty much the easiest place in Asia to get employment for english teaching, if not too lucrative. Therefore it makes for a good temporary fix. However, I have never personally had a positive view on modern thailand - don't get me wrong - the food and the buddhist culture are very intreguing for me, but the modern foreigner scene seems to be so damn SLEAZY that it makes vegas look high-class. I admit this is a preconception but it is the impression I got from every single traveler I met who has stayed in Thailand for a while...

Opinions?
