Posts: 76Silom Sauna is a mini-complex with several hot and cold pools, a sauna, exercise equipment, a relaxation area, food / drink service and an area with massage girls who will take you to a little room with a shower and a bed for massage and of course more. I think the entry fee is around 300-400 baht, plus another 300 baht for the massage room. Plus anything extra you negotiate with the massage girl. BUT. The whole place is pretty run down: think concrete bunker with nearly no charm.

Posts: 720Is this Silom Sauna strictly a sauna / steam room? How much is the entrance fee?

Posts: 96Of course it's not the last of my inheritance. I still have plenty more left in the bank. It's just the maximum amount I'm ready to spend on this trip. Although in reality I won't spend all of it just taking extra to cover up in case I get stuck or run into an emergency like an accident. It's always good to have more than necessary for an emergency.

I plan to stop all mongering after this trip and focus on saving up. My next Thailand trip could be after about 5 years and not any time soon.

Posts: 2642Regarding the issue of emotional distress and financial distress set forth below.
1. If you're unhappy in life, Thailand is not going to make you happy.
2. If you want a wife or a long-term partner, you're not going to find it on a street corner on lower Suk.
3. If you wonder constantly about your finances and worry about them, you shouldn't be spending the money.

Posts: 70Why 69 K?
Is this 69 K your remaining inheritance, or is it the maximum amount that you are prepared to spend on this trip?

Posts: 76Spa Experience
Folks, I am looking for an experience that I have not yet found in BKK. I am looking for a kind of all-inclusive brothel featuring hot pools, cold pools, sauna / steam rooms, massage and of course working girls! The closest I have come is Silom Sauna on Suk Soi 22 which has these features but in a fairly downmarket atmosphere and quality (to be fair their prices are commensurate, so I do still go there). But can I find a more posh spa-cum-*****house? Only the wise folks of ISG know. !
P.S.: I'm OK with soapy massage, but it's not exactly what I am seeking.

Posts: 27Yep, I agree this math does not make any sense. Even if you made 20000 USD a month after tax you would not spend like this.

Posts: 3284Good plan!
That is a solid plan. Save on flights and hotels and spend it on girls. Even a top gogo girl is only 4-5 K baht. So you should be good. Add in a BJ at 7 Heaven for 1300 and veggie massage at 500 K and you should still be good!

Posts: 96Thank You!
Thank you all for the feedback. I'm headed to BKK again September end for 3 nights. Have around 69 K THB to play with. However this time, I booked a cheaper flight on Indigo at 10 K THB. There was Air Asia which was about 9 K Baht but I decided to skip it as it was landing at 4 am in the morning that would imply me waiting in the hotel lobby up until noon for check in. I also booked a cheaper hotel for my upcoming trip this time. 5 K Baht for 3 nights instead of the 17 K Baht I paid earlier on the 5 star hotel.

One reason why I am a bit liberal with money is because I own two flats here in my home country and do not have to pay rent apart from food, groceries & utilities. But that is no excuse in the long run and have to be more prudent with my expenses.
Cheers!

I am from the Sub continent too. First off, 80 K THB is about 2 L INR for a 4 day trip which is really expensive. Even the 5 star does not justify this since Thailand is much cheaper compared to even, Dubai. Flights. Avoid Thai, take Indigo. Timings are inconvenient, but when the company is not paying for it you can lose some sleep. Even better if you get a connection via KL, go for it, sometimes even cheaper on Air Asia. Shop around for tickets. Hotel - 8 K is ok per night for a 5 star, but you can go down to a 3 star one too. Ping some of the girls on MR, sideline and fiwfans and check what hotel they are in. Book the same. Has worked well for me both in BKK and Dubai. MP you seem to have spent on the higher side, look around and bargain, Thermae pick ups might be better since you can avoid some bar fine, etc. And you said you are a young good looking guy. So most of the girls should be agreeable to come with you.
The core problem. Condolences for your loss. Is female company, not sex. Find something you like to do. Working out, running, hiking, photography, etc. Join a local Facebook group, meet new people and girls. Hit some pubs / bars on weekends, meet people. This is not a cheap thrill, you will lose out money since mind does not control your actions if you are desperate.
