Developing a plan is the 'key' to a successful retirement in Pattaya, Thailand, so to get you started I think you'll find these books helpful.
 
A Fool in Paradise This is a short, quick funny read! Light hearted stories of run-ins with Pattaya bar girls, hazards of owning a bar in Pattaya, so on. A good intro, full of WARNINGS, to Pattaya.
 
 
Money still number one Similar in theme to the book above. Don't be an ATM for your teeruk!
 
 
 
Hello, My Big Big Honey A collection of letters written by 'farangs' and bar girls to each other. Includes interviews with the girls themselves. A VERY revealing, sometimes sad, look at Thailand's nightlife.
 
 
I Walked Away Ever thought about just 'selling everything' and running away to a new life in Thailand!? This is exactly what this American did--sold ALL his posessions and ultimately ended up in rural Thailand. Inspirational and full of good advice about living in Thailand.

 
The Scribe A well written, older novel about the 'writer' of love letters for Thai bar girls to teeraks. Entertaining and eye-opening.
 
 
Thailand Fever If have ANY interest in pursuing a relationship with a Thai woman, I HIGHLY recommend this book! Offers Westerner insight into Thai culture and women.
 
 
Pattaya map Forget the cheap, free maps you can pickup in many hotels. Get a good, comphrehensive map. It will make living in Pattaya MUCH easier.
 
How I found Freedom in an Unfree World Nothing to do with Thailand but an inspirational classic! Especially when you're friends and family tell you, you're crazy for moving to Pattaya!
