The best thing I ever did was become a member of this great site and make my first trip to Thailand... "which after 4 years I'm still on my first trip here"

I joined a couple of years before I moved to Thailand and I have lived here now nearly two years. This is without a doubt the best investment I could ever have made to made to learn everything necessary to make my decision to move and, just as importantly, to learn all about the rules, customs, laws and other nuances necessary to enjoy my life here. JC's depth and breadth of knowledge continues to amaze me! And when he refers to his RCA family, it in not an overstatement! I truly feel a sense of belonging to a family. I can't see myself ever dropping my membership.. Best investment in adapting to living in Thailand ever!!!

Educational and entertaining. Best value for your money. You have access to people, information and resources and JC has always been responsive to my needs. Meaning if I have a question and post it to the What's Shakin' ? update on a country and situation JC is good at getting back with an answer and his opinion. I like that. He solicits the membership of what they want to see and need. Nat is better looking though - just gotta say that! ;) They are a good couple and both encouraging & inspirational to all comers from the shy to the outgoing. Join early and be informed your decisions you will be making will be better for the effort.

If you're even remotely interested in retiring in SE Asia, join RetireCheap.Asia. You won't be disappointed! You will find an incredible amount of resources at your finger tips and you will become connected with an amazing group of like-minded individuals. Every week I look forward to JC and Nat's weekly video update. They are quite informative and entertaining as well.

To say a membership to Retire Cheap.asia is a must is the understatement of the year. It is the ONLY paid site on the Internet I pay anything for. Retirement in Asia IS a real option and to try to do it (even if you're in the planning or deciding stages) without a RCA membership is NOT an option. Pays for itself many, many times over.
