In Thailand you can live like a prince on very little. Just about everything is inexpensive. Four pineapples for $1...teeth-cleaning for $7...an hour’s foot massage for $6, getting a blouse washed after a mishap with a green chicken curry will set you back 25 cents. “Treats” can be afforded daily. At the markets, huge bunches of exotic blooms cost less than a couple of dollars. Even orchids are only 30 cents a stem.
