In a good year, more than four million people in Phuket Thailand. Many of these visitors will love. Some like it so much I want to live here.

Every year, hope thousands of people come to Phuket to establish a new life on a tropical island. Many of them have to earn their livelihood and soon discover that the job opportunities for foreigners are very limited. So, what are their options? Well, one of the avenues most likely to invest in their own business. EWhat is the best company to enter? Owning a bar.

For many, it seems like a dream. Living on a tropical island, on the day and night beach party at a bar, but the reality does not match the dream?

E are considered 'a thing I have when I arrived in Phuket. I have the options, with real estate agents, bar owners said, bar girl. Ultimately, I decided it just was not worth the trouble.

I was again expected in Phuket and even naive, that many pitfallswere bar owners, but even then I could see there are many problems in a bar in Phuket own. At the beginning, "one bar owner is misleading because it is almost certain lease and probably the most difficult conditions.

It's hard to lead a decent life with a bar and in fact most fail within the first two years to make. Even if your bar does not money, is their professional opinion probably illegal. The laws in Thailand are stacked against foreigners to own a small business.

Whereall these things about me, they were not my biggest concern. The most important factor for me away from the ownership of a bar was the lifestyle. I know quite a lot of owners of bars, and when I looked at her life, I knew it was not for me. It's just a shit life.

Do not get me wrong. As a night on the beer. Even more nights on the beer. But not every night at the bar how to do a job? Would not soon lose its appeal to the obvious health problems, mention to go with themLifestyle.

Since I made the decision to leave the club alone at the bar, it was not a second when I looked back and regretted it. I know that his many bar owners and address many friends, but I've never felt their lives. Recently, the premature death of one of these friends really drove home for me.

He was not even 50th He owned a bar in one of (lanes) of Soi Bangla in Patong. It was a nice guy to talk simply and easily. Although Idid not see him more than once a week, we have always had a good conversation and he was one of my favorite bar owner.

Last year had some health problems. It was then advised many hospitals and doctors, "was clear and simple - stop drinking!

The problem is that it is very difficult to stop drinking if you own a bar. The two things to bring the customers to these small bars are the girls and the owner. And girls often do not work very well when the workOwner is not there.

Regular customers, like a conversation to have with the owner. Often, when the owner is not there, just go to the nearest bar. For those, the bar, the owner must be present most of the time.

So my friend could not drink soft drinks? Well, he's just a few days, but boredom is for him. They spend the evening sitting your bar, Bar bombarded with loud music, to think that these complexes, it is seems to drink a good atmosphere. ToA large part of the evening you can not have customers, but you have to be just in case. You can watch TV, but you can not hear. Your company is just the bar girls who are probably angry private or free drinks.

And when guests come, they want to get drunk and get drunk, that with them. Of course, it is acceptable for customers. If you are on holiday just to do it for two weeks before returning to their normal lives. The owner of the barE 'night after night, year after year.

They offer to buy drinks and the bad business to not accept. If you keep your discipline and stay sober, the night is unbearable. Drunks are a lot of fun when you're drunk with them. When You're Sober, there is nothing worse than trying to laugh at your stupid ramblings.

So despite the warnings of the doctor, my friend was drinking too soon. It just goes with the territory of owning a bar, drinka lot.

All done with my friend. He had a bad motorcycle accident. He has never drinking and driving, but motorcycle accidents happen easily. He himself out of the hospital too quickly, always ignored the advice of a doctor. His next session of alcohol consumption was too much for a body that he was tired. He died in his sleep.

The crazy thing is that it does not even need the helm. He had worked hard in his home country and was able to retire. I and some friends tried to convince. Give up The problem is that he is one of the owners of bars that do not make good money and it is difficult to give up a good deal was. Lastly, it was good to be a bar owner for his own good.

The strange thing is that many people who buy bars have come to Phuket for a better quality of life. They want to live in a tropical paradise. Phuket is their dream home and features a bar that will be used to finance their life is here. The problem is their own in a bar ruleto enjoy on the island.

Most bar owners wake afternoon with a hangover. Laze their homes shake the hangover budget go until it's time to the bar and back to work. They could do it anywhere. Phuket's beaches, islands and other tourist attractions are not relevant to the bar owners, as not seeing the most.

I know a few bar owners, do not even know there was a tsunami until the evening when she went to work. II know others who still had three years to Phuket Patong not seen the Bay of Phang Nga, Phi Phi, Nai Yang Beach, Nai Harn Beach, in fact, nowhere more than a few kilometers from.

I'm not quite put prospective bar owners. I just want your eyes, what kind of life they are open daily. I think for the kind of character under the right circumstances, is an acceptable choice. If you're young, you can use this way of life much better. I know that if Iwas in my twenties, I have to drink much alcohol and always has been rid of in a position ready for the next meeting. to decrease with age your healing power.

For those looking for a few years and the party is ready, a start and that has a bar in Phuket, is a decent choice. If you are the kind of discipline where you can go to the bar to entertain clients and have not drunk every night, so it might be for you. But as a long-term source of income - for the most partPeople who are not worth the sacrifice.

Another friend has a bar owner decided to sell after a few years. He was a young man and lived his bar. The problem was that he was on the stage, where he got his bar hated. He hated it, in the evening to go in the same place night was sick and tired with the bargirl and their petty disputes and was tired of feeling crap all the time.

So he sold and came with a good profit. It was notsold the bar, after the discovery that he felt shit all the time. It was not just a hangover, they mask the real problem. She had leukemia.

I'm not saying that possession was a bar in fact his leukemia, but it has not helped his fight body. What he did was put in a state of mind where he thought it was normal to feel sick all the time and he agreed. Luckily he got over time, was diagnosed and he returned to his country of originHe was successfully treated.

Now everything is clear and we hope that one day he will return to Thailand. Currently its regular monitoring it. He says he now reflects on his time in Phuket and realize that it was in a rut. He made enough money to live, but could not save anything. Her life revolves around bars every night when he not only do the things that drew him to Thailand in the first place will. He would never return to the company in the BarPatong.

So, to summarize. If you own a bar in Patong think we can do it? Well, you spend most nights sitting at the bar waiting for your customers and listen to terrible music at high volume. Will struggle to achieve a fair profit. You need your driver with the bar girls to do. You can choose to spend your evenings sober and bored or drunk and happy.

Suppose you choose drunk and happy (most homeowners bar do) you will endpay for it. I do not have a single bar that looks like a picture of health. It's a busy life, and if you long for probably a few years of your life expectancy.

They might confront the attitude that work is still shit. It 's my shit in your country, so you might as well be the work of the shit in Phuket. Now fair enough, until you reach the bar with open eyes and not with a vision in pink day at the beach and party nights.
