Nowhere is cheap if you're using US dollars since they went to shit. Plus if anyone sees you with American money they will probably try to kill or rob you. Exchange all your money for gold and move to India. It's super cheap there, but you'll have to get used to the smell of horrible body odor, pee, and feces. They're still working on putting plumbing in. They have tons of taxis but no plumbers.

Is it? I might have to come over then.
Anyway, many parts of Asia are still relatively cheap to live, especially if you keep off the beaten tourist tracks.
in our neighborhood, 400 Euro for a months rent is about average, and there is cheaper. Plus, central europe, bitchin' nightlife, lax weed laws, plus epic buildings from the past to present!
not bad, how do germans like the americans? as long as ur not a closed minded d-bag
look at this article for us vs thailand http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/1070831/the_cost_of_living_in_thailand_compared.html?cat=6

its listed on the most expensive cities worldwide.. more expensive than Chicago and San Francisco..
EDIT:
Buenos Aires is a really good balance between cheap and something going on.

I lot of third world countries in asia are dirt-cheap to live, but they aren't necessarily safe. By the way, I can't believe that Berlin is a cheap place to live. No way.

You guys forgot about North Korea. It's pretty cheap over there, and the law enforcement is pretty tough, making it be the country with the lowest crime rate in the world.

Some cities in Mexico are very nice mainly the resort cities by the ocean and pretty cheap too compared to hotels/restaurants in the U.S...I personally would never travel to India.

You must be confusing North & South Korea. South Korea is a democratic country, whereas basic things such as phones, internet, and music are forbidden in North Korea. In fact american citizens aren't even allowed to enter the country. Chill place

Absolutely not true! I felt very safe in India almost everywhere I wen't. Just dress more like a "traveler" as opposed to a typical American tourist with your hawaiian shirt and slr camera and you'll be fine. Indians overall are very respectful of foreigners in their country and very religious as well, so.
And you know what, I think that the Indians only smell bad in OUR country. In theirs they smell fine. Unless I got used to it because everything smelled bad 
I would however hesitate before I tell them I'm an Englishman, if I we're one. I met two English guys who got jumped and beaten in Kerala by a mob of about 20 Indian guys.

how is the thailand nightlife?  any music festivals/raves/undergrounds that are known?
i would try india out but from the majority of information that i gathered about the country is that it is very very dirty, rats everywhere and feces to the max everywhere. 
not sure what goa is like though?

Eastern Europe is pretty cool. You can always get a job teaching English, even if you don't speak the local language.

I'll have to agree with the former dudes who said Portugal. Let's say here you can buy a beer for 0,50 cents, buy a pack of cigarettes for 3,50 €, rent a house for yourself for 300 €, although the minimum wage is preeeeety low (475€) so you better bring some of yours.
Any questions you can ask the Portuguese here

Where did this idea come from that only Americans can be closed-minded d-bags? 
Believe it or not, socially, we're one of the most liberal countries on Earth. Many people in Germany would throw slanderous, homophobic expletives at you for reasons neither you nor I could even conceive of. It's only fiscally that we're so conservative of our precious moneyed elites.
That's the REAL difference - there aren't really any more douchebags here, but OUR douchebags are considered national treasures and priceless natural resources.

man, Goa is like heaven on Earth!! No joke.
Its not India, in my opinion, nothing like the rest of it. I was there for this last winter, and it was 85-90 everyday, and didn't see one drop of rain the whole time, 3 months straight. All the vegetation is vividly green and alive and the place itself attracts the most interesting people and travelers, especially the northern most beach, arambol. Lots of Russians and Israelis, and Europeans there mostly, I only met one or two other Americans.
The nice thing about Goa, well among many, is the fact that you can smoke ganja wherever you damn well please! In the streets, in restaurants, and you can score lots of other drugs there as well. I knew two guys peddling acid, and a few guys who deal ketamine, cocaine, opium, and some groups that do ayahuasca ceremonies. Goa is pretty much where most of the hippies flocked to during and after the vietnam war, that and kathmandu, nepal.
I don't know, just look into it man! Beautiful oceans, deep jungles, people parasurfing, paragliding all day on awesome thermals, I can go on and on...
