French in Southeast Asia for years.
No office. No 9-to-5. I live off my investments.
Phnom Penh • Bangkok • Manila.
Food, wine, travel, money — and what this life really costs.
I won't show my face. I'll show you the numbers.

@MandalaySamui We wait for the Airport in Koh Rong !

[The Monsoon Ledger @Monsoon_Ledger]

$14.10 for a bottle of Chapoutier La Ciboise in Phnom Penh.
Around €6 ($7) in France.
An honest everyday French wine. You can still afford to drink wine in Southeast Asia, despite what many people think.

@macropaperr a bonds at this rate with undervalued currency, I'm gonna buy some.

[The Monsoon Ledger @Monsoon_Ledger]

@NoLimitGains Let's buy JGB 30Y together !

[The Monsoon Ledger @Monsoon_Ledger]

Gasoline in Phnom Penh: $1.27/L
Diesel: $1.55/L
London: ~$2.31 / $2.64
Berlin: ~$2.35 / $2.70
Paris: ~$2.39 / $2.52
Fuel in Phnom Penh is basically half the price of Western Europe.

[The Monsoon Ledger @Monsoon_Ledger]

@Silver47samurai it's high, return is good but better to buy 30Y Japanese bonds at 4,25% as the currency is undervalued

@Alien6363 @FattyNatsu Is that the government rate in condos too?
In Phnom Penh, condos often charge around $0.25–0.30/kWh depending on the building.

[The Monsoon Ledger @Monsoon_Ledger]

$8 for 2 months of water and $221 for electricity in Phnom Penh for 1,140 kWh.
Same electricity consumption today:
Paris: ~$273
London: ~$420
Berlin: ~$485
And yes, that’s with the AC running 24/7.

@AXD_CAPITAL @Polymarket The PR directly with 300k$ of real estate is a good deal I wish we have this kind of deal in SEA. Enjoy Panama I'm sure it's a good place to be
