    Don't worry, you don't need to pay tax.

    Big news from China - Tencent partner EGLD. Tencent have a market cap of $460 Billion. https://www.coindesk.com/web3/2023/02/16/tencent-teams-up-with-multiversx-to-expand-web3-strategy/

    I don't think I said it was discriminatory. I meant that all foreigners going to US, and UK, and most other countries are taxed much more than 300 baht. There is no visa on arrival for Thais to many countries that my UK passport gets in free. I guess there is always Russia and Turkey

    Is your wife Thai? 4000 baht is what a Thai pays for a 2 week holiday. Time we had some reciprocation and charge Yanks 4000 baht. https://www.houstontx.gov/council/committees/qol/20160217/HotelOccupancyTaxBreakdown.pdf

    Thanks, I plan to hold BTC for many years but might sell a little if needed soon , and the price is in profit, or sell it all if I can get x5. I bought BNB at under $10 and sold most at $100. Buying again now.

    I only see old guys when I'm in Pattaya, no idea how they can stay up until 3.30 am, maybe by taking drugs.

    There is a good Facebook group that answers many questions.

    Well my wife is smiling today, as we sold our house last year and put all the proceeds into BTC, DOT, and BNB. Bought BTC as it went under 19k, buying most at $16,800.

    Good riddance, an utter embarrassment. Where is Sean Connery?

    Bitcoin and the likes challenge that.

    Maybe it is because we are scared we get retired taxi drivers or butchers who don't know that adjectives don't have a singular and plural. Only kidding, yes, there is a strict hierarchical social structure here and farang don't usually get on the first rung of the ladder.

    Think about the UK for a minute. It what I often do to put things into perspective. Retired teachers and other professional volunteer to teach other oldies in order for them to find work. People on an Arabic web forum complain and say they would volunteer to teach these retired people Arabic. How silly does it sound?

    I quoted someone saying expat pensioners should teach them Thais English.

    There should be a requirement for yearly visa holders.

    My God, I hope you don't have any Thai relatives, you certainly won't have any friends.

    Maybe a long way but you can buy cryptocurrency on Binance through P2P transaction, when you have BTC, for example there are many options to get the GBP into your bank account. Personally, I exchange BTC to GBP on Revolut app, I also use Crypto,com credit card to spend BTC. If living in the UK, send GBP straight from Binance to your bank.

    The world is becoming a cashless society, most people can get by with a smartphone. If everyone used Bitcoin, it would save issues like this. Thailand is ahead of many Western companies in this regard, with SCB using blockchain tech for cross border transactions.

    Indeed,, 'I could care more' is the same as 'I couldn't care less'.

    When I travel, I always buy the local currency before I go, I thought every would do that.
  21. Neeranam
    Does that mean you care a lot at the moment?
  22. Neeranam
    Fair enough, where will you travel to instead?
  23. Neeranam
    Taking jobs from the young English teachers trying to eke a living, or lowering their wages.
  24. Neeranam
    What brainwashing? Sounds like you are not happy with your choice of pasture.

    Indeed, some very paranoid bashers on this thread. Expat retirees are not welcome blah blah, poor me, poor me, pour me another.
