Welcome to the forums. You haven't really given us much information to work on. Like, what country do you come from, what are your skills/education and do you see yourself marrying your "Thai sweetheart"? If you are a so-called native speaker and have a degree then you can get legal work as a teacher. If you come from other country where English is your second language then it might be possible to get legal work but it ismore likely you will get a job that pays under the table. An alternative long term approach is to set up your own comapny. However, you need 2 million baht (in theory) as registered capital. But, once you have that you can apply for a work permit and work legally.

Visa payments vary a lot. Anything from 1,000 baht to 200,000 baht. Resident visa is VERY expensive and very difficult to get. Before we can go into any details, we need to know more about your plans.
