  1. They made a mold of my teeth. I ordered one from the Pattaya/Bangkok hospital for 4300 baht. It will be ready for pick up in 1 week. It costs a lot but hopefully it works well.
  2. I have tried that a few times but could never get one to fit properly. I found it impossible to sleep with those mouth guards. I ordered one from the Pattaya/Bangkok hospital for 4300 baht. It will be ready for pick up in 1 week.
  3. I've been having a problem with my teeth grinding at night. I want to get a mouth guard made but my dentist doesn't handle that. Does anyone know a dentist who will make a mouth guard ? I know there are many very good Pattaya dentists but I am specifically looking for a dentist who will make me a mouth guard. Thanks for any info.
  4. I see that in the USA, some banks are offering close to 5% for 1 year fixed accounts. What is the best current available interest rates for Thai accounts ?? Thanks for any info.
  5. I am flexible on the price and location. Somewhere in the Pattaya area. I am currently living in a 2 bedroom/2 bathroom rental house on the darkside, that I am paying 7,000 monthly. This house is older and needs some repairs. For a rental, I could pay as much as 25K monthly. If you have a place for sale/rent, please send me photos and info. I am looking for a long term rental and can move in immediately. Thanks
  6. I'm guessing that once the novelty wears off prices will drop a lot. In USA states where it is legal, they have many specials and lowered prices especially for product that hasn't sold that well. I think most of this 600-800 a gram weed will fall 50% in price within a few months. I have already seen discounts offered if you buy more that one gram.
  7. You're 100% correct except that most Gov't agencies don't talk to each other.
  8. The problem with 'leverage' is not how the customers use it But what the exchange itself does with your deposited assets and how they use them to earn returns. Just my opinion.
  9. Many Thais don't realize that gold is priced in USD and that exchange rate has a lot to do with the daily gold price movements.
  10. I am guessing that Gold will go down more or trade sideways for awhile. As all markets, Gold is highly manipulated. I read that is cost around $1,000-$1,200 and ounce to get the gold out of the ground. As with all manipulated markets, true cost and fundamentals have little meaning.
  11. Stocks have also been going down. Farmland is not very liquid sometimes. It's all a big casino. Good Luck to us all.
  12. Are they in Pattaya ? Google is showing Phuket. I am in Pattaya.
  13. Update: Friday @ 6:30pm....I had appointments with 2 different people over the past 3 days. No one showed up and neither man bothered to call to let me know they would not be coming. Even when I wrote to them on Line/Facebook, they still didn't reply back. Even stranger, the last handyman wrote first to me after seeing my thread and offered his services. I guess no one needs work or money here. Hopefully, someone will give me another handyman to try. Thanks
  14. I agree, but the landlord is in BKK and asked me to see what can be done .
  15. Hello, I am looking for a repair man who can fix or replace a leaking water pump. I am living in a rental house on the darkside, soi Khao Talo. Does anyone have any recent good experiences with a handyman who knows about water pumps ? Thanks for any info.
  16. I think I heard that Pacific Cross will insure people over 65. The agent will know the current info.
  17. Taxes are the biggest problem, especially with the USA. The gov't tries to take as much as they can, then they waste the tax money on needless things . A lot of the tax money gets stolen and absorbed by the politicians. Some things never change.
  18. Even if I had to pay 40% in taxes, I wouldn't be complaining about a $18m profit, after I paid my $12m in taxes. Making $18m sounds glorious to me and in this example then "taxes paid' and you can spend freely.
  19. Yes, there was a problem with this one exchange BUT millions of transactions are done successfully everyday across hundreds of exchanges. As far as taxes, sure you might pay some taxes but don't you also pay taxes with stocks ?? So why would that even be considered a negative point against crypto ? Most of the larger exchanges have some type of insurance or in-house fund that can be used in the event of a hack. In most of the recent hacks, the exchanges absorbed the loss and the customer didn't lose anything. I get it, you don't like crypto and would never buy any But why be so hard/negative against others that want to take the risk ? Would you stand in front of the casino door screaming about the bad risk and oblivious house advantages ? As with all forms of investment or gambling, there will be winners and losers. It all comes down to luck and timing, unless you have insider info. Of course, insider info trading is illegal and no one would do that.
  20. Yes, you are right. This is new and evolving tech and that will continue to have 'growing pains'. I'm old so I can remember AOL and dial-up log-ons.
  21. Well said !!! It's all a gamble and all markets are highly manipulated. Unless you have insider info we are all just hoping for some luck to come our way. Good Luck to us all.
