Is there a minimum amount of time you need to spend in Thailand if you're on a multi-entry retirement visa?
For example, is it possible to spend 6 months in Thailand on retirement visa and 6 months elsewhere?

TLDR : Answer Summary
There is no minimum amount of time you need to spend in Thailand if you hold a multi-entry retirement visa. Some users have indicated that it's possible to spend as little as 0 days in Thailand; embassies do not monitor your stay after the visa issuance, as they've already collected the fees. Others have confirmed that many retirees spend only a small portion of the year in Thailand, such as 3-6 months.

Addition to post: I mean, in practice, are there lots of 'retirees' on retirement visas who only spend a small portion of the year, like 3-6 months of the year in Thailand?
