In my opinion, Thailand is the perfect place to live. It has all the right elements for a non-citizen to live like a king. It is crazy cheap. It is a stable economy with a stable political system and respect for authority and the law, so it isn't completely corrupt (relative to most countries in the region that is). The infrastructure is first-world standards so the banking, transportation, telephone, electrical grid...systems all work fine. The weather is tropical. The culture is enriching to be around. They are a proud country and people of their history and culture and are mostly friendly and accepting of foreigners. The food is awesome. There are a ton of neat side trips to make in the country and to surrounding ones.
