TLDR : Answer Summary
When entering Thailand with a tourist visa, it's commonly stated that travelers might need to show a minimum of 10,000 THB per person or 20,000 THB for a family/group. However, opinions vary, with some people suggesting it's better to have at least 20,000 THB to ensure entry, as discretion lies with immigration officers.
It is required by law, last year according the numbers 35 million tourist came into Thailand. 1760 got refused entry with Visa issues. So a small change to be asked or get refused, but the decision to respect the Thai law or not is on you. I never been asked before is not an excuse or a good advice.
